Plugin to scroll the content of the recent post?

  • On my home/main page I would like a plug-in that can autoscroll the recent post with customizations to where you can control the speed of the scrolling and possibly pause the scroll upon mouse-clicking. Also, it would be preferable if there was also a manual scrollbar in case the reader would prefer not to autoscroll.

    I looked at https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/vertical-scroll-recent-post/ but that only scrolls the titles of the post. I would like to autoscroll the content of the post.

    I have seen examples in regular webpages where you create a text box with fixed height/width parameters then using dhtml/css you set the overflow to autoscroll or something like that. That’s essentially what I want to do to the text box of the recent post. Is there a plug-in for that?

    An “auto scrolling marquee” for the content of my recent post is what i guess i’m looking for. i found a snippet of a code for how to do it for blogger posts so i’m sure there’s a wordpress equivalent out there

    Getting somewhat closer. I tried to use marquee and marquee-plus plugins in order to accomplish the scrolling post by putting in the following code:

    <div class=”entry”>
    <?php the_content(); ?>
    </div>

    ^ that should be the recent post content php tag if i’m not mistaken but nothing comes up when i try to enter that into the content of the marquee that i wish to scroll. am i missing something here?

    nevermind, i just manually used <marquee> tags around the php code where it was located on the page and that did the trick. thanks anyway folks.
