Post Ticker

Introduction

A post ticker is a dynamic feature that appears on websites as a scrolling or sliding list of posts, typically in a compact, horizontal format. It’s comparable to a news ticker used on news websites, in which headlines run across the screen, allowing visitors to rapidly view the most recent updates or prominent content.

Key Features:

  1. Scrolling/Sliding Animation: Posts are shown in a continuous scroll or slide, either horizontally or vertically, highlighting recent or important information.
  2. Customizable pace and Direction: You can customize the ticker’s pace and scroll direction (left to right, right to left, top to bottom, etc.) to match your website’s layout and style.
  3. Post Selection: The ticker can be set to show specific posts depending on criteria such as categories, tags, recent posts, or featured posts, ensuring that the most relevant content is displayed.
  4. Clickable Links: Each post in the ticker is usually a clickable link that directs people to the entire post, making it simple for visitors to access the content they’re looking for.
