    Can Ditty News Ticker be used with concurrent modes? In other words, for a given ticker, could that be displayed in a Rotate mode on one page but also a List mode on another page? That would be quite useful for us, so that we can collect an archive of ticks.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Yes, you can do this! You just need to add a mode attribute to the shortcode:

    [ditty_news_ticker id="12754" mode="scroll"]

    [ditty_news_ticker id="12754" mode="list"]

    [ditty_news_ticker id="12754" mode="rotate"]

    Within your ticker set up each of the mode settings and then when you use that mode within the shortcode it will display accordingly.

    Let me know if you have any other questions.

    Thank you!

    Also, since these are news items, frequently changing, is there a way to put a time stamp that displays on each tick?

    No problem. Currently, there is no way to add time stamps automatically on each tick. I would suggest manually adding one to the tick and add some custom styling if you want.

    <span class="my-timestamp">09/17/21 at 9:07am &mdash;</span> Here is my tick

    .my-timestamp { display: inline-block; font-size: 8em; color: #CCC; }

    Something like this should work.
