News ticker settings

Posted in: Newspaper

Hi,

I am using the news ticker feature on my frontpage:

https://tenisite.info

The problem is that ALL the titles are truncated. This is because the news ticker is not scrolling the titles.
Instead of having the titles scroll continuously one after the previous one ends as ticker works (see ticker bands at the New York Stock Exchange), the news ticker feature shows the titles one by one, it does not scroll at all, with the animation stopping when the first letter of the title hits the left margin of the container. Thus, if the title is longer then the container, it is truncated.

Being a news website we need the title to show in full within the news ticker and the titles to scroll

Is it any way to modify the news ticker in order to have a the titles scrolling instead of the current setting?

Best regards,

Gabriel

Hi,

Unfortunately this is the only option for News ticker in our theme, but I can help you with a custom css to display the full post title -> https://i.imgur.com/ETmJ6qM.png
.td-trending-now-wrapper {
height: 60px;
overflow: visible!important;
}

This code need to be set in theme panel> custom code> custom css.

Hope this will help you!
Thank you for your understanding!

One more thing, please.

TD composer does not provide any styling option for the newsticker in the smart-phone viewport (actually, only the desktop and the tablet viewport tabs are available).

I tried unsuccessfully to circumvent this by adding the following piece of CSS in the thme panel:


@media
(max-width: 767px) {
.td-trending-now-wrapper {
font-family: “Cormorant”, Times, serif!important;
font-weight: normal!important;
font-size: 14px!important;
}
}

what am I missing?

Can you help?

Best regards,

Gabriel

Please disregard my previous message, I solved the mistery

I managed to find the smart-phone viewport tab: it was almost totally hidden behind „Search settings …” and modify the smart-phone news ticker settings as needed.

Everythings works as it should.

tks

Hi arnextera, I’m glad that you manage the situation.
As for the mobile view port, this has the behavior that you describe when you are using zoom on browser.
If you have other questions, let us know!
Have a nice day!
