  • Works As Indicated

    I was looking for ticker plugin; and this one fit the bill. Works nicely.I would like to suggest adding the capability of clickable links in the ticker.

  • Super Plugin

    Dieses Plugin ist der beste Text-Ticker, denn ich für WordPress bisher gesehen habe. Einfach zu handhaben, Ausgabe als Shortcode (vielseitig anpassbar) und/oder als Widget. Sehr flexibel. Mit dem Theme Twenty Sixteen gibt es keine Probleme. Empfehlung: Absolut Spitze!!! [ link redacted, please do not post links in reviews ]
