Twitter Bootstrap - multiple image (thumbnail) carousel - move thumbnails one at a time

Question

I am trying out Twitter bootstrap 3. I am quite new to HTML, CSS and Javascript. I have a carousel which i created and it's code looks like so:

<div class="container">
    <div id="myCarousel2" class="carousel slide">
        <!-- Carousel items -->
        <div class="carousel-inner">
            <div class="item active">
                <div class="row text-center">
                    <!-- ITEM-->
                    <div class="col-md-3">
                        <div class="thumbnail product-item">    <a class="img-responsive" href="/current-buzz"><img src="{% static 'img/buzzbutton.jpg' %}"/></a>

                        </div>
                    </div>
                    <!-- ITEM-->

                    <!-- ITEM-->
                    <div class="col-md-3">
                        <div class="thumbnail product-item">    <a class="img-responsive" href="/current-buzz"><img src="{% static 'img/recipebutton.jpg' %}"/></a>

                        </div>
                    </div>
                    <!-- ITEM-->

                    <!-- ITEM-->
                    <div class="col-md-3">
                        <div class="thumbnail product-item">    <a class="img-responsive" href="/current-buzz"><img src="{% static 'img/buzzbutton.jpg' %}"/></a>

                        </div>
                    </div>
                    <!-- ITEM-->

                    <!-- ITEM-->
                    <div class="col-md-3">
                        <div class="thumbnail product-item">    <a class="img-responsive" href="/current-buzz"><img src="{% static 'img/recipebutton.jpg' %}"/></a>

                        </div>
                    </div>
                    <!-- ITEM-->
                </div>
            </div>
            <div class="item">
                <div class="row text-center">
                    <!-- ITEM-->
                    <div class="col-md-3">
                        <div class="thumbnail product-item">    <a class="img-responsive" href="/current-buzz"><img src="{% static 'img/buzzbutton.jpg' %}"/></a>

                        </div>
                    </div>
                    <!-- ITEM-->
                    <!-- ITEM-->
                    <div class="col-md-3">
                        <div class="thumbnail product-item">    <a class="img-responsive" href="/current-buzz"><img src="{% static 'img/recipebutton.jpg' %}"/></a>

                        </div>
                    </div>
                    <!-- ITEM-->
                    <!-- ITEM-->
                    <div class="col-md-3">
                        <div class="thumbnail product-item">    <a class="img-responsive" href="/current-buzz"><img src="{% static 'img/buzzbutton.jpg' %}"/></a>

                        </div>
                    </div>
                    <!-- ITEM-->
                    <!-- ITEM-->
                    <div class="col-md-3">
                        <div class="thumbnail product-item">    <a class="img-responsive" href="/current-buzz"><img src="{% static 'img/recipebutton.jpg' %}"/></a>

                        </div>
                    </div>
                    <!-- ITEM-->
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
        <!-- /INNER-->
        <!-- Carousel nav -->

        <a class="carousel-control left" href="#myCarousel2" data-slide="prev"><i class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-left"></i></a>

    </div>
</div>

Now this is set to show 4 images at a time. The thing is I have 8 images. In the carousel above it displays 4 images at a time and then slides to the next 4. Here's the Javascript:

<script type="text/javascript">
$('.carousel.slide').carousel()
</script>

And the CSS:

@media (max-width: 767px){
.carousel .row .span3 {
display: block;
float: left;
width: 25%;
margin-left: 0;
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box;
    }
}
.carousel .carousel-control { visibility: hidden; }

How do I get the images to move only one-at-a-time in a continuous loop?

Take a look at this Bootply: http://bootply.com/94452

You can use jQuery to clone() the items accordingly..

$('.carousel .item').each(function(){
  var next = $(this).next();
  if (!next.length) {
    next = $(this).siblings(':first');
  }
  next.children(':first-child').clone().appendTo($(this));

  for (var i=0;i<2;i++) {
    next=next.next();
    if (!next.length) {
        next = $(this).siblings(':first');
    }

    next.children(':first-child').clone().appendTo($(this));
  }
});
