Hi,
Thanks for this super & clear code. I was just wondering if it's possible to stop the infinite loop? If yes, what's your recommandation?

Regards,

Yannick

hi @YayaBln

I just modified the above code to stop infinte loop , please refer the code below,

/**
 * infinite loop carousel
 * @author newdongyuwei@gmail.com
 * @param  {Object} config 
 * @return {Object} this
 */
$.fn.infiniteCarousel = function (config) {

        isFirst = true;

    var first = listEl.children(":first"),
        last = listEl.children(":last"),
        lastButOne = listEl.children(":nth-last-child(2)");

Hi, thanks for this! How would I enable scrolling vertically? .viewport and .infinite-carousel are not responding to overflow-y:scroll.
