It's attached to the first post in this thread.

No, thats ticker2.php. do i just copy ticker2.php and rename it to ticker.php?

I believe that's a typo. You only need the one file. You can call it ticker or ticker2. You just need to use the right name when you install it on your desktop.

Is there anyway I can only have the users I want to access it? Like Certain Usergroups or something?

First, I'd like to say great hack! I installed it earlier this week, and my users really like it. It works great! I changed some of the parameters to customize it based on the feedback I've received from some folks.

One thing I haven't been able to figure out:

How can I get rid of the vertical scroll bar on the right side of the ticker? I put a border around the marquee box (so that I could see how large it was and adjusted the height of the marquee box, but its still there. My taskbar is set at double height. If I increase the size of the taskbar, the scroll bar becomes grayed out, but its still there. Is there another bit of code I can add to ticker.php to remove the scroll bar (i.e. a no scroll tag)?

Thanks in advance for your help! :)

Hey look what I found. Good job luke I am going to install this thing today. BTW thanks for the pimp. :D

Who said wluke wasn't an awesome hacker? ;) :D

Works great with some design modifications! THX!!

Ticker rewritten!
The scrolling is now one line moves from right to left!
This Version needs much less space in your taskbar!

Hope you enjoy it ;)

Please, any screenshot?

Thanks.

Thanks for this hack!

Here's a suggestion I think everyone will love:

When the ticker is clicked off, how about having a private message notification feature?

This page can refresh every 10 minutes or so and notify the user when he/she has received a new private message. When the user clicks on the new private message link they are taken to the private message, or log-in page or whatever.


Has some potential don't you think? :p

I updated my version, with my own thinking.

Somebody may want to improve their hack. Mine uses a latest threads hack by TubeDogg and it even works on active desktop too. :p
