What you could used is a "Live" Currancy" News Ticker like this

Code:

<script src="http://www.forex-rates.biz/index.php?step=ticker_docwr&bgc=white&fntc=Blue&fsize=14px&ffam=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif&width=100%&height=20px"></script>
add that to the end of your header ;)

Thanks I'll give it a whirl! :)

PHP Code:

If you place the bits between the <SCRIPT> tags just before your </BODY> tags at the end of the page, it prevents the small delay that appears when the "Loading...." div is created.

Is anyone else having an issue with the search bar moving around on IE (but not Firefox)?

If you scroll the site in IE the News Bar floats down the site as you scroll down the page, but then it does return back to it's original position.

I have the code in my header template as well.

Here's the site too if you'd like to see for yourself: http://www.bengalsroar.com

Also did anyone ever figure out how to adjust the font color of the feed? It seems that if you remove the url for the gsearch.css and actually copy in the css text instead you can then alter the colors of everything except the feed portion. The feed portion is still being controled by the CSS color codes in the body css under "normal links css"

So is there a way around that?

Thanks in advance.

create a CSS ID for that span and call it -- it will override the forum's settings

Hi Buddy :D

First of all Download the Code in the Zip File, Open in a text editor, Notepads fine, and ...

and Find

Code:

executeList : ["Business News"]
Change the word "Business News" with any other search term associated with your site, so if your site is a Parenting Site, then you would add words associated with that, Not 100% sure but if you want to change the Default Business news to a different search result why don't you add "in UK" to the Search parameters

Like this

Code:

executeList : ["Business News in UK"]
So change the words within the brackets and save.

Let me know how you got on ;)

Thanks, I tried that and it worked to a point,however I have had complaints about the terrible lag on the forum since adding this code.

Pages take forever to load while waiting for the newsbar to load up, remove the Google code and problem is gone. We are on our own fast server and have no issues otherwise.

Strange, i've heard it take a few seconds to collect the data, But i didn't think it would effect the forums, How about you add the newsbar on a blank HTML page in your forum root and show it on your site via an i-frame, Then the forum should load correctly and google new bar when it does in its own time ;)

Just a thought, It'll depend if you feel the newsbar is benificial to your forums or not to do the extra work??

Hi UKBL,

Great mod I have finally had the time to try it out but unfortunately it's next to useless or my the news feed I require "Spain News" tried lots of different keywords and it just shows up 3 outdated bits of news.

What I find strange about that is the google news rss feed for the same keyword has loads of the latest news! :(

Is there anyway of adapting this to use with an RSS Feed?

Thanks.

dadoc 08-22-2009 02:52 AM

Great mod thanks,

It works very well, I want it to display on my main/index page only?
what template should I add it to? or is a code change that I can do to have it only display on that page only?

dadoc 09-03-2009 09:16 AM

I would also be interested if it could work with RSS feeds?
