NGG - Scrolling text/images

[betts02]

Scrolling text or images with a mouse over stop

Each is clickable to open in a new window

Instructions :

Admin - Styles And Templates - Style Manager
Template Options - Edit Templates
ForumHome Templates - ForumHome

This is where you decide where you want to place this code now

Above forums

Find
<!-- main -->

Below that add
<marquee behavior="scroll" direction="left" onmouseover="this.stop();" onmouseout="this.start();">

<p><a href="YOUR LINK HERE " target="_blank"><font color="YOUR CHOICE"><p style="font-size:YOUR CHOICEpt;">LINK NAME HERE</p></a></p>

</marquee>

To change the direction of the scroll simply change
scroll" direction="left"
To what you want

To have it open in the same window simpy remove
target="_blank"

If you want to add an image that is clickable then simply add

<marquee behavior="scroll" direction="left" onmouseover="this.stop();" onmouseout="this.start();">
<p><a href="YOUR LINK HERE"target="_blank"><img src="LINK TO YOUR IMAGE HERE"/></a></p>
</marquee>

To add this above the footer simply find
{vb:raw footer}

And add above it

Play around with it and see what you can do with it and see where you want to place it

Enjoy

[sulasno]

[betts02]

I have my site heavy modified with loads of edits which may be the cause ?

But it seems to work fine for most users

Please click installed of you or anyone uses, cheers

Thanks! Works great!

Works perfect, thanks. :)

Installed... works great .. thanks .. :)

I'd love some way of having this implemented, so we can just change the message and turn the mod ON and OFF from the AdminCP instead of having to EDIT all our templates each time we want to announce something...

Is there another mod for v4 which does this, or can this one be expanded easily?

Appreciate any feedback ..

Regards,
Doug

Thanks .. :)

I'll check and test it, but I was hoping for something that would be small and with movement that would let people click on it as this one does ...

Does anyone know which template i would modify to have this at the top of the cms page?

Oh and thanks for the code, it works great in the forum...

[wobbly]

Yer, same here. How can I add this to the CMS page?

Has anyone tried this on 4.2?

Has anyone tried this on 4.2?

There is no reason why this should not work on v4.2.2, since it is just HTML and CSS. However, the marquee element is a HTML5 deprecated tag -- which means that some browsers will drop it in the future. A preferred method would be to use CSS3 instead, just Google CSS marquee: there are plenty of examples. If you wanted to use this mod it most likely will work on all desktops at the current time, but you might need to check your mobile browsers.
