Answer 1

UPD: loop must be like this

<div class="carousel slide" data-ride="carousel">
<div class="carousel-inner slideshow<?php echo $module; ?>">
<?php foreach ($banners as $banner) { ?>
<?php if ($banner['link']) { ?>
<div class="item"><a href="<?php echo $banner['link']; ?>"><img src="<?php echo $banner['image']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $banner['title']; ?>" /></a></div>
<?php } else { ?>
<div class="item"><img src="<?php echo $banner['image']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $banner['title']; ?>" /></div>
<?php } ?>
<?php } ?>
<a class="left carousel-control" href="#carousel-example-generic" data-slide="prev"><span class="bootstrap_left"></span></a>
<a class="right carousel-control" href="#carousel-example-generic" data-slide="next"><span class="bootstrap_right"></span></a>

</div>
</div>

and jquery

<script type="text/javascript"><!--
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.item:first-child').addClass('active');
$('.carousel').carousel();
});
--></script>

Have you refer or check the html version outputted of your code. If simillar to what should bootstrap carousel setup should be?

Please do refer with it . BOOTSTRAP CAROUSEL

Else refer to this fiddle JSFIDDLE DEMO

Carousel Script

// invoke the carousel
$('#myCarousel').carousel({
  interval: 3000
});

/* SLIDE ON CLICK */ 

$('.carousel-linked-nav > li > a').click(function() {

    // grab href, remove pound sign, convert to number
    var item = Number($(this).attr('href').substring(1));

    // slide to number -1 (account for zero indexing)
    $('#myCarousel').carousel(item - 1);

    // remove current active class
    $('.carousel-linked-nav .active').removeClass('active');

    // add active class to just clicked on item
    $(this).parent().addClass('active');

    // don't follow the link
    return false;
});

/* AUTOPLAY NAV HIGHLIGHT */

// bind 'slid' function
$('#myCarousel').bind('slid', function() {

    // remove active class
    $('.carousel-linked-nav .active').removeClass('active');

    // get index of currently active item
    var idx = $('#myCarousel .item.active').index();

    // select currently active item and add active class
    $('.carousel-linked-nav li:eq(' + idx + ')').addClass('active');

});

As you can see in your 3rd line you have <div class="item active"> .

You need to include this inside the loop of your php. Then create a condition that if it is the first item, set its class as item active and then in your else statement just item .

Try work it out with this example code.

<?php $i = 1; ?>
<?php foreach ($rows as $row): ?>
<?php $item_class = ($i == 1) ? 'item active' : 'item'; ?>
    <div class="<?php echo $item_class; ?>">
      <a href="<?php echo $row['url']; ?>">
        <img src="<?php echo $row['image']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $row['title']; ?>" />
      </a>
    </div>
<?php $i++; ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>

Manchary had the right idea. I have tested this, and run it in my Opencart.

Here's the full code to add to: catalog/view/theme/ yourtheme /template/module/carousel.tpl

<div id="myCarousel" class="carousel slide" data-ride="carousel">
<!-- Indicators -->
<ol class="carousel-indicators">
<?php
$i = 0;
foreach ($banners as $banner) {
    echo "<li data-target=\"#myCarousel\" data-slide-to=\"".$i."\" class=\"indicator\"></li>\n";
    $i++;
}
?>
</ol>
<!-- slides -->
<div class="carousel-inner">
<?php foreach ($banners as $banner) { ?>
<?php if ($banner['link']) { ?>
<div class="item"><a href="<?php echo $banner['link']; ?>"><img src="<?php echo $banner['image']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $banner['title']; ?>" /></a></div>
<?php } else { ?>
<div class="item"><img src="<?php echo $banner['image']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $banner['title']; ?>" /></div>
<?php } ?>
<?php } ?>
</div>
<!-- Controls -->
<a class="left carousel-control" href="#myCarousel" role="button" data-slide="prev">
        <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-left"></span>
</a>
<a class="right carousel-control" href="#myCarousel" role="button" data-slide="next">
        <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-right"></span>
</a>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[ 
    jQuery(document).ready(function($){
    $('#myCarousel ol.carousel-indicators li:first').addClass('active');
       $('#myCarousel .item:first').addClass('active');
        $('#myCarousel').carousel({
        interval: 8000
    });
});
//]]> 
</script>

Note* If jQuery document ready is causing grief, you can try

window.onload = function() {
    // code here
}

Hope this helps someone.
