    Another suggestion:

    Your nomenclature should align with the Bootstrap nomenclature. I think that would make more sense, and be more user-friendly.

    A “carousel”, as bootstrap describes it, is a slider, or slideshow (or whatever you commonly to call it) containing a set of slides (which Bootstrap calls “Carousel Items”). It would be an improvement if you used the Bootstrap naming conventions; that would make your plugin more logical and understandable.

    A single CPT item should be called “Carousel Item”. “Add new” should be “Add New Carousel Item”. The plural name of CPT items should be “Carousel Items” and, in the menu, “All Carousel Items”. If anything, it should be the categories that are called “Carousels” or, if that’s too confusing, “Carousel Groups”.

    What you call a “Carousel” is not a carousel at all; it is a single carousel item. Your naming is confusing to users. Why say Add New Carousel, when they are just adding a new single slide?

    You can change the Single and Plural names, and what CPT items are referred to in the admin menu and admin screens, in the CPT set-up without changing the slug, so I think you could make the change without screwing up everyone’s existing content.

    Just my suggestion! Might be more user-friendly over all. Great plugin – keep up the good work and thanks again!
