Text is directly added in the module itself. HTML is allowed.
Furthermore, it is possible to show different modules with different texts, placeholders, speeds and directions at once.
That's exactly how a Joomla Extension should be. This module works out of the box and has - in my opinion - all the features a news ticker should have. A nice addition is that also html is supported which makes the ticker even more useful.
I also particulary liked the demo page as I've never seen a demo before where you can actually access the backend and check out and even alter the settings.
Full stars!

You may use the 1.6. It also works with 2.5
Kind regards
That is something more than what I really expect. you can easily use links, you can easily install use and everything is ok. some people say that it is not smooth! Unfortunately the new version of firefox every marquee has this problem...even in VB the marquee is not smooth in the new version of firefox!! it needs a high level performances to show the marquee smooth BUT... in google Chrome, IE, Opera, Safari it is very smooth and I love it more than a chocolate!!
Thank you go one...:)

Loved it, and was more than a little excited about having something work that easily and would have been easy for my client to use and update as well. One problem: it does not show in IE9. Too bad.

Hi flemmingfrog,
I'm sorry, but I can't reproduce the problem. I've just visited our demo page at: http://marqueeticker.demo.mediahof.com/de/
The simple marquee ticker is working well with all options as you can follow on that site. I used the browserclient Internet Explorer 9 Version 9.0.8112. ...
I believe the problem is caused by your choosen template.
Kind regards, John
So easy to set up - clean easy delivery of content - no clutter delivering the message. Exactly what I wanted.

I've spent HOURS looking for a module for a "Newsflash" ticker-type feature... All the ones I tried either didn't work, didn't work well, or were too complicated. This one was EXACTLY what I was looking for!! What I love about it is you don't have to pull in actual "articles" - but can type just the text you want to scroll across the page - which is 99% of the time how I will need to use it - NOT with an article(s)...
Also, it was VERY easy to customize with plain ol' CSS in my template :)

After I first dowloaded this 1.5 plugin I couldn't install it. After I send a message tot the distribuator, within 2 days I got an answer en a new version of the plugin. After installing I am very positive. I worked with hyperlinks but still have to try the images.
A nice and good plugin.
