The templates use clean HTML and CSS that adapts to your theme’s styling. ### How do I create my first news ticker? Go to News Tickers -> Add New, give it a name, click “Add News Item” to add announcements, publish, and copy the shortcode. Paste the shortcode anywhere you want the banner to appear. ### Can I reorder the announcements? Yes! Simply drag and drop items using the handle on the left. The order you set in the admin is the order they’ll scroll in. ### How do I schedule announcements? When adding or editing a news item, use the “Start date” and “End date” fields. The item will only display between those dates. Leave empty for permanent display. ### Can I make announcements clickable? Yes! Add a URL in the “Link” field. When visitors click the announcement, they’ll go to that URL. Perfect for promotions or event pages. ### How do I change scroll speed? Use the `speed` parameter in the shortcode. Default is 50. Higher numbers (100) scroll faster, lower numbers (25) scroll slower. Experiment to find what works best. ### Can I pause scrolling when someone hovers over it? Yes! This is the default behavior. Set `pause_on_hover="false"` if you want continuous scrolling without pausing. ### How do I customize colors? Go to News Tickers -> Settings -> Design tab and customize colors to match your brand. Changes apply to all tickers using that template. ### Can I temporarily hide an announcement without deleting it? Yes! When editing a ticker, uncheck the “Active” checkbox for any item you want to hide temporarily. Re-check it later to show it again. ### Can I create multiple different tickers? Absolutely! Create unlimited tickers, each with different announcements, templates, and settings. Use different shortcodes to display them on different pages. ### Will this slow down my website? No! The plugin uses CSS animations and lightweight JavaScript for smooth performance with minimal resource usage. Most sites see no measurable impact. ### Does it work on mobile devices? 100% responsive! All templates work beautifully on smartphones and tablets with touch-friendly interactions. ### Can I use it with page builders? Yes! Works with Elementor, Beaver Builder, Divi, Gutenberg, and all major page builders. Just add the shortcode in a text/shortcode element. ## Reseñas No hay reseñas para este plugin. ## Colaboradores y desarrolladores “FYP News Ticker – Scrolling News Banner & Announcement Bar for WordPress” es un software de código abierto.
