title: Bootstrap 4 Carousel external controls
body: <p>I see the indicators in the carousel where I can click an element to go to the next slider or the previous slider.  Is it possible to directly slide to a specified carousel item from controls external to the carousel?</p>
  
  <p>I was trying to add an external panel (to the carousel component) with links to specific slides. I'm trying to do something like the jquery news slider used at <a href="http://easy-quiz.net/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">easy-quiz.net</a>. This is a jquery extention and have the callback working to change the highlighted item but want to be able to click one of the items and get the carousel to focus on the corresponding item.</p>
