I’d like to add a ticker somewhere here: http://take.ms/J6CSl

Using this plugin: http://dittynewsticker.com/ditty-news-ticker/

Can you suggest how to do this?

Hi,

Edit the page template that you use on homepage then add the ticker code where you want it to appear on your page.
You can also find more info about how you can achieve that on plugin’s page: https://wordpress.org/plugins/ditty-news-ticker/
If you don’t know how to do it we suggest to get a freelancer to do ti for you as this needs custom work and we cannot offer custom work at this time.

Thanks

He has suggested wrapping the ticker in a container div (appropriate to the coding/css of your theme). I have no idea what he is talking about… could you help?

Hi,

I guess it refers to the fact that you need to add the function for the ticker inside a wrapping div container. Meaning that you code should look something like this: <div>your thicker</div>
You should also consider add the css like instructed here: http://metaphorcreations.ticksy.com/faq/1749
Unfortunately you would need custom work for this and at this moment the time doesn’t allow us to offer and kind of custom work if you don’t have any html/css/php basic knowledge we suggest you to get someone to do it fore you.

Thanks

Ok, I want to add a news ticker in one of these locations: http://take.ms/klwCF

I’ve been looking at a number of plugins (premium and free) but I’m not sure what would be compatible as a number of them are bootstrap based and I know Newspapper is not compatible with certain versions.

I’m considering this one: http://codecanyon.net/item/jnewsticker-for-wordpress/2506620

Hi,

Unfortunately I cannot help you with that as we haven’t made any tests with this type of plugins so I can’t guarantee it will work. If you like you can try it and see how it works for you.

Thanks

I don’t want to buy a plugin that doesn’t work… I’m sure you can understand that.

What version of bootstrap do you support?

Hi,

I understand. The theme uses a custom modified of version of bootstrap 2. Note that it’s modified so please consider that.

Thanks
