Carousel Height Problem, The default Carousel height is too large

Question

I am trying to shorten the height to 500px from 1000px. Since this is my first time including bootstrap I have difficulty understanding which css class affects the carousel. If you can give me tips or a guide it would be much appreciated

Code

Answer 1

This is set to a max-width of 500px.

Here it is in a Codepen, too.

$('.carousel').carousel({
  interval: 2000
})

.carousel-item {
  max-height: 500px;
}
