display some part fourth column with opacity
Assistant
To display a portion of the fourth column in your Owl Carousel with reduced opacity, you can achieve this by applying some CSS styles. Here's how you can modify your HTML and CSS to show a part of the fourth item while maintaining its opacity.

### Step 1: Update the HTML Structure
Ensure that each carousel item has a fixed height or that the content is appropriately sized. This is crucial for creating the effect where part of the fourth item is visible.

### Step 2: Add CSS for the Opacity Effect
You can apply CSS to the `.carousel-item` class to give the fourth item a lower opacity. Here’s an example:

.carousel-item {
    position: relative; /* Ensure the positioning context is set */
    height: 200px; /* Set a fixed height for the carousel items */
    overflow: hidden; /* Hide overflow to control visibility */
}

.carousel-item:nth-child(4) {
    opacity: 0.5; /* Set the opacity for the fourth item */
    position: relative; /* Required for positioning */
    z-index: 1; /* Ensure the fourth item appears above others */
}

.carousel-item:nth-child(4)::after {
    content: ""; /* Add an empty pseudo-element */
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    right: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    background: white; /* Optional: add a background color to the overlay */
    opacity: 0.5; /* Overlay opacity */
    pointer-events: none; /* Prevent hover effects */
}

### Step 3: JavaScript (if necessary)
If you need to ensure that the carousel initializes correctly, you may not need to change anything in your existing JavaScript for Owl Carousel, as the opacity is handled purely via CSS. Just make sure the carousel is initialized correctly.

### Complete Example
Here’s the complete code snippet with the added CSS for clarity:

<div class="custom-carousel-grid <?php echo esc_attr($css_class); ?>">
    <?php if (!empty($title)): ?>
        <h3 class="carousel-main-title"><?php echo esc_html($title); ?></h3>
    <?php endif; ?>

    <div id='owl-carousel-grid' class="owl-carousel owl-theme">
        <?php
        if (!empty($items)) {
            $items = vc_param_group_parse_atts($items);

            foreach ($items as $item) {
                $item_title = isset($item['item_title']) ? esc_html($item['item_title']) : '';
                $item_content = isset($item['item_content']) ? wp_kses_post($item['item_content']) : '';
                ?>
                <div class="carousel-item">
                    <?php if ($item_title): ?>
                        <h4 class="item-title"><?php echo $item_title; ?></h4>
                    <?php endif; ?>
                    <div class="item-content">
                        <?php echo $item_content; ?>
                    </div>
                </div>
                <?php
            }
        }
        ?>
    </div>
</div>

<style>
.carousel-item {
    position: relative;
    height: 200px; /* Set height as needed */
    overflow: hidden;
}

.carousel-item:nth-child(4) {
    opacity: 0.5;
    position: relative;
    z-index: 1;
}

.carousel-item:nth-child(4)::after {
    content: "";
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    right: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    background: white; /* Optional */
    opacity: 0.5; /* Adjust overlay opacity */
    pointer-events: none; /* Allow clicks to pass through */
}
</style>

<script>
$("#owl-carousel-grid").owlCarousel({
    loop: false,
    margin: 30,
    responsive: {
        0: { items: 1 },
        768: { items: 2 },
        1024: { items: 3 }
    },
    autoplay: false,
    autoplayTimeout: 3000,
    autoplayHoverPause: true,
    nav: false,
    dots: false
});
</script>

### Notes
– Adjust the `height` of `.carousel-item` to fit your design needs.
– The opacity settings can be adjusted to achieve the desired visibility effect.
– Make sure to test the styling on different screen sizes to ensure the desired effect is consistent across devices.
