Hi guys!

First of all thank you for this really great plugin. Works good. But I found some disturbing bugs, such as high cpu usage and big white space between ending and staring.
So I decided to help you to improve this plugin and I merged liScroll 1.0 and webTicker 1.3. Here is the right and working script:

jQuery.fn.liScroll = function(settings) {
		settings = jQuery.extend({
		travelocity: 0.05,
		direction: 1,
		moving: true
		}, settings);
		return this.each(function(){
				var $strip = jQuery(this);
				$strip.addClass("newsticker")
				var stripWidth = 0;
				var $mask = $strip.wrap("<div class='mask'></div>");
				var $tickercontainer = $strip.parent().wrap("<div class='tickercontainer'></div>");
				$strip.find("li").each(function(i){
					stripWidth += jQuery(this, i).outerWidth(true);
				});
				$strip.width(stripWidth+200);//20 used for ie9 fix
				function scrollnews(spazio, tempo){
					if (settings.direction == 1)
						$strip.animate({left: '-='+ spazio}, tempo, "linear", function(){
							$strip.children().last().after($strip.children().first());
							var first = $strip.children().first();
							var width = first.outerWidth(true);
							var defTiming = width/settings.travelocity;
						//$strip.css("left", left);
							$strip.css("left", '0');
							scrollnews(width, defTiming);
						});
					else
						$strip.animate({right: '-='+ spazio}, tempo, "linear", function(){
							$strip.children().last().after($strip.children().first());
							var first = $strip.children().first();
							var width = first.outerWidth(true);
							var defTiming = width/settings.travelocity;
							//$strip.css("left", left);
							$strip.css("right", '0');
							scrollnews(width, defTiming);
						});
				}

				var first = $strip.children().first();
				var travel = first.outerWidth(true);
				var timing = travel/settings.travelocity;
				scrollnews(travel, timing);
				$strip.hover(function(){
					jQuery(this).stop();
				},
				function(){
						var offset = jQuery(this).offset();
						var first = $strip.children().first();
						var width = first.outerWidth(true);
						var residualSpace;
						if (settings.direction == 1) residualSpace = parseInt(jQuery(this).css('left').replace('px',''))+ width;
						else residualSpace = parseInt(jQuery(this).css('right').replace('px',''))+ width;
						var residualTime = residualSpace/settings.travelocity;
						scrollnews(residualSpace, residualTime);
				});
		});
};

Use it with joy! ??

Is there a way to change the background color from white to match the current site background?

Tested in IE 7, 8 and 9. Bleeds out of the widget. Looks fine in Firefox.

Hey guys, great plugin.
Check out this screenshot – the numbers are totally bogus. The setting on the backend use the correct syntak (“^IXIC”, for example).

Any idea how to get the right numbers to display?

I would like to move the link to the WP Stock Ticker settings page out of the “Settings” menu and give it a main admin menu item of its own as to allow the clients to change stock settings without letting them into the WordPress settings. Thanks!

I love this plugin, but the codes provided for implementing it are inadequate.

For anyone wanting to simply jam this into a template file, such as header.php, default.php, etc. and you’re having trouble with the function script provided, you can insert the actual shortcode directly into your php file with this snippet:

<?php echo do_shortcode(“[s_ticker_display]”); ?>

works like a charm and you can see it in action on my political news site

great plugin! of all the tickers, I love this one the best!
