I have a really basic Flickity carousel with some images. My problem is it reamins on the top of the page and I want to center the whole carousel vertically inside my section. My section height is equal to my device's height, so its basically a fullscreen. I tried so many things but I dont know how to solve it. I tried to apply display:flex; and align-items:center; trick on my section but then it destroys the whole carousel...
My code:
**style.css** ```
/* external css: flickity.css */
* {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
body {
font-family: sans-serif;
}
#section-b {
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
background: #0b1320;
text-align: center;
color: white;
min-height: 100vh;
}
.carousel {
background: #0b1320;
}
.carousel-cell {
width: 70%;
height: 200px;
/* flex-box, center image in cell */
display: -webkit-box;
display: -webkit-flex;
display: flex;
-webkit-box-pack: center;
-webkit-justify-content: center;
justify-content: center;
-webkit-align-items: center;
align-items: center;
}
.carousel-cell img {
display: block;
max-width: 100%;
max-height: 100%;
/* dim unselected */
opacity: 0.7;
-webkit-transform: scale(0.85);
transform: scale(0.85);
-webkit-filter: blur(5px);
filter: blur(5px);
-webkit-transition: opacity 0.3s, -webkit-transform 0.3s, transform 0.3s, -webkit-filter 0.3s, filter 0.3s;
transition: opacity 0.3s, transform 0.3s, filter 0.3s;
}
/* brighten selected image */
.carousel-cell.is-selected img {
opacity: 1;
-webkit-transform: scale(1);
transform: scale(1);
-webkit-filter: none;
filter: none;
}
@media screen and (min-width: 768px) {
.carousel-cell {
height: 400px;
}
}
@media screen and (min-width: 960px) {
.carousel-cell {
width: 60%;
}
}
/* buttons, no circle */
.flickity-prev-next-button {
width: 60px;
height: 60px;
background: transparent;
opacity: 0.6;
}
.flickity-prev-next-button:hover {
background: transparent;
opacity: 1;
}
/* arrow color */
.flickity-prev-next-button .arrow {
fill: white;
}
.flickity-prev-next-button.no-svg {
color: white;
}
/* closer to edge */
.flickity-prev-next-button.previous {
left: 0;
}
.flickity-prev-next-button.next {
right: 0;
}
/* hide disabled button */
.flickity-prev-next-button:disabled {
display: none;

Your section block is aligned properly, while div.carousel is not.
I've solved the problem, using additional wrapper element - div.center-wrap.
Also style was changed:
.carousel {
background: #0b1320;
width: 100%;
}
div.center-wrap {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
min-height: 100vh;
}
