You make all changes (add forumids for example) in the admincp options
Admincp => vBulletin Options => vBulletin Options => vB News Ticker

Don't forget to click install :)

The ticker seems to be working on my forum home:
http://gridironfans.com/forums/index.php

But not on my vbadvanced index page:
http://gridironfans.com/

What can be done to fix this?

Nevermind, I found this post and it answered my question:

Ok, here's what I have read... you need to add the plugin titles to Portal Output Global Variables in your CMPS options. I am not sure how to navigate there as I don't have access to this atm.

Edit reading another thread, the way is: Admin CP => vBa CMPS => Default Settings => Portal Output Global Variables
Thanks, that got it working perfectly. I just added ticker_titles and vbnews_ticker into there and its working like a charm.

I would really like some effects, like http://eurosport.yahoo.com/ or http://news.bbc.co.uk/
Would you consider to add this?

SBlueman 12-12-2007 06:24 AM

I like how the Yahoo link you put up allows you to scroll back and forth. I was using the RSS News Ticker from CoffeeCup before having to uninstall it because of a security flaw (hattip to Alfa1 for the heads up) but it allowed you to scroll back and forth. It's the only feature missing that I am missing from the CoffeeCup code.

I've actually considered working on adding something like the second link. The first link would be something I'd have to look into as I've not seen that one as of yet. Let me see what I can do when I get some time.

How do you change the background colour?
I want to decrease the height of my ticker. The height of my ticker does not change when changing the setting in vb options. I have already set it to 1, but that does not help. Any ideas?
I do have the ticker in VBA CMPS.
This is my template:
PHP Code:

<table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]class="tborder" width="100%">
<
thead>
        <
tr>
            <
td class="tcat" colspan="$mods[colspan]">
            
            <
span class="smallfont"><strong>$vba_style[portal_blockbullet] <if condition="$mods['link']"><a href="$mods[link]">$mods[title]</a><else />$mods[title]</if></strong></span></td>
        </
tr>
    </
thead>    
   
    <
tr>
<
td
style
="height: 0px; width: 100%; text-align: center; vertical-align: top;">      
$vbnews_ticker 
</td>
    </
tr>
  </
tbody>
</
table><br />

To change the background color you should be able to just edit the $vbnews_ticker template and add something like this in this div tag:
Code:

<div align="center" style="padding:7px">
right before the "> add
Code:

z-index: -1;  background-color:#FF0000; layer-background-color:#FF0000;
- change the colors as necessary.
Also, remove the padding:7px to adjust the height (or change the number to a lower number).
