Carousel indicators active

Question

I'm trying to change the indicators color when a slide is active. So when you click the indicators the slide change, but the indicators doesn't change color. I only set the .bar:hover with a border color of white. I also tried :active :checked but nothing works... but I can't figure out how to do this.

Answer 1

Hope I understood you correctly. Just add this script:

let bar = document.querySelectorAll('.bar');

let select_bar = (event) => {
  [...bar].forEach(link => link.classList.remove('active_bar'));
  event.target.classList.add('active_bar');
}

[...bar].forEach(e => e.addEventListener('click', select_bar));

And add this selector to your css (you can make your own style rules for the active bar):

.active_bar {
    border: 2px solid red;
    background-color: red;
}

Was it necessary?

let bar = document.querySelectorAll('.bar');

let select_bar = (event) => {
  [...bar].forEach(link => link.classList.remove('active_bar'));
  event.target.classList.add('active_bar');
}

[...bar].forEach(e => e.addEventListener('click', select_bar));
