Can you add a scroll left and scroll right function so we can choose which way the scroll goes?
Yes, I am working on adding this option.
It will be available in the next update.

Having trouble getting this to work on my ecommerce platform. Sent an email to you – do you have time to lend a hand?
Sure, no problem.
I have responded to the email that you have sent me.

A great script … how can I use two tickers on the same page?
Hi,
Adding 2 tickers on the same page is very easy.
Create 2 copies of the markup code on the page.
If you want both of the tickers to have the same settings, you can call both at the same time during the initialization code by using the “modern-ticker” class, like in the examples.
If you want them to have different settings, give each markup code a different class, such as “modern-ticker-1” and “modern-ticker-2” and use the initialization code 2 times to call and pass the settings for each one.
I hope that everything is clear. If you have any questions, please let me know.
If you have any problems understanding this, send me an email on the contact email provided with the files and I will send you a quick example file implementation with 2 tickers on the page.
Regards.
Excellence, Good job man 
I am wondering if “Modern News Ticker” is able to support “RTL” language or not?
sorry 4 my bad English and many thanks for answer
Do you mean “right-to-left” support ?
I am working on this and it will be available in a near future update.
If you want to be notified when the update is implemented, you can send me an email from my profile page and I will make a note and notify you with a quick email when the update is implemented and ready to go.

Hey thanks for the plugin. Is it possible for the ticker to pull from multiple RSS feeds? For example, displaying news headlines from three different news sites?
Thanks!
The ticker can display data from only one RSS feed at the moment, unfortunately, there is no possibility to load data from more than one.
Regards.
Would it be possible to load the data from a txt file? since my HTML website does not have a RSS or Atom feed.
Well, an RSS file is basically a simple text file with the text structured in a certain way so that it is easier to read.
So you can have a simple text file with the text arranged like an RSS and everything will work ok.
Read more about how to structure data in an RSS here: http://www.xul.fr/en-xml-rss.html
And here is an example RSS file made for the ticker: http://www.creativetier.com/examples/example.rss

Ok thanks alot!
A new update has been implemented:

- Added a method to be able to call the refresh through code, if needed.
Regards.
New update has been implemented with:
- Updated guide
- Updated code
- Updated instructions
- Updated file structure

Can you provide .js file that is not minimized? I’m looking for a way to reload or update the content of the ticker when I close a jQuery popup window.
Thanks
The unminimized version is included with the files in the “Assets/Source” folder.
Regards.
Thanks, I should have looked around a little more. Still having trouble reloading the content within the ticker on click event of a button though.My guy has tried re-initializing it on click event but no go. Any thoughts?
It should be fairly simple to modify the code, it is not too large. I will make an update to the ticker and add a setting to control the automatic refresh as well as a function to call the refresh through code, if needed.
I will message you once the update is implemented.
Regards.
The update has been implemented. I have added a setting to control the automatic refresh at an interval of time as well as a function that can be called at any time through code to initiate the refresh.

Please tell everyone before they buy that in order to support an RSS feed, the client has to be able to reach Google and get the feed translated into JSON objects by Google. I just bought the script and was using it in a environment where the web browsers do not have Internet access, but can read the feed. I was really saddened to see what was going on.
Also, what would you suggest is the best way to reload the feed dynamically? In my own scripts (which I was hoping to replace with your documented ones!) I simply reload the feed when I have displayed all the items in the feed. Have you throught about this. Reloading the whole page is really not an option.
Hi,
In terms of reading an RSS file, there is an issue with browser access and that is why I have implemented the use of a service that processes the file and returns a JSON object that is then processed by the ticker.
I am always looking to improve things and I am looking for other options that can possibly improve this functionality. I am looking more into this to find possible alternatives and if there are solutions I will certainly make an update shortly.
You can find me at contact@CreativeTier.com if I you have any questions or if you want me to notify you if and when an update is ready.
Regards.
For future people reading the comments:
- The ticker now has 2 loading options available. A direct loading that simply loads the specified file which does not require anything else and an indirect loading that uses an external service to process the file in order to bypass cross-domain loading restrictions. Complete details are explained in the documentation.
- The ticker now has an inbuilt option to refresh the loaded feed at an interval of time.

Hi ,
if I buy the Regular or Extended license do I get any feature updates or bug fixes ?
Regards
Any updates and bug fixes are for both versions, so you should buy which license you prefer based on your needs.

ticker cant be installed on my site tried many ways
Have you followed the instructions from the guide file ?
Exactly what are the problems that you are experiencing ?
Are you familiar with HTML ?
You can also contact me on contact@creativetier.com where you can send me more specific information if you prefer not posting it in a public forum.
Regards.
hi i am using php with this script but i cant seem to connect it with my idex.php page
The problem seems to be with the way that you have your php code, not with the ticker itself. Find out exactly what problem are you experiencing ? Either the proper html code is not created, either the css file is not accessible, either a problem with the JavaScript code and then look specifically into that issue and what may be causing it.
Regards.
Hi,
I sent you an email 2 days ago, the plug-in did not load onto my Wordpress blog. Please can you tell me how to make this work on my Wordpress blog? I am not good with coding and techy stuff so could you tell in the simplest way possible?
Thanks.
Hi,
This ticker is not a Wordpress plugin, it is a standalone HTML and JavaScript file.
I am not familiar with how Wordpress works exactly, you should research about the possibility of integrating a standalone html component, specifically integrating html code and css and javascript files.
If you have any other questions, please let me know either on the email or here.
Regards.
Totally awesome product, LOVE IT!
Purchased six items in last seven days and this is defo the best, very simple to implement, thank you very much.
Lee
Thank you, I am very glad it was so helpful.
Not able to get it to work after following instructions. Emailed for support 4 days ago and no response.
Hi,
I have contacted you on your email. Please get back to me with more information and I will be happy to assist you.
Regards.
Seems to be working but when in scroll mode with a short message the text does not begin scrolling from the far right. The text just appears and scrolls off to the left. Can you help with this? Also. with a short message, the repeated message does not start until the first one scrolls off the screen.
Hi,
Please send me an email on the contact email supplied and I will assist you if there still is a problem. I am looking into this at the moment.
Regards.
Hi !
Is this script “responsive” ?
Thanks
The ticker is not responsive, it has static dimensions.
Regards.
Just to clarify, you can set any dimensions you want for the ticker, but it does not change dimensions when resizing the window, it keeps the dimensions that you set for it.
Regards.
thanks !
For future buyers as well, this ticker is a standalone HTML, CSS and JavaScript project, it is not a Wordpress plugin.

Hello, nice script! I have some question for you In the case of an RSS file I can configure how many news you render? I can choose to display just the title of a news article and do not see its description?
Hi,
Yes, you can configure the number of RSS items to be displayed. For each item, the title is displayed and when clicked the link specified by the RSS for that item is opened.
Regards.
do not work I applied the steps and tried lot of ways I tried to put code as in index file exactly it just gives a black area instead of ticker could this be due to language or character set? I use windows-1256
Posting here for future buyers as well.
The tickers works ok on all platforms and on all browsers. If you are encountering a problem it is most likely something on your end or the way in which you have integrated the code.
If you encounter any issue, you can contact me at contact@creativetier.com and I will assist you and help you with the implementation.
All the best.
