Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →
WP PlugIndex currently records TECHED.TV Ticker version 1.2.2 as active, updated 2mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
Displays the latest items from a feed as a horizontal scrolling strip:
thumbnail, title and date, pausing when hovered or focused.
Reads any RSS or Atom feed – podcast, YouTube, Medium, another WordPress site
Falls back to this site’s own /feed/podcast if no URL is given
When the feed is local, thumbnails come from the real featured images
Otherwise falls back to itunes:image, media:thumbnail or an enclosure image
Cached in a transient, so the feed is fetched rarely, not per page view
Place it with a shortcode, a widget, a template tag, or automatically
No jQuery, no build step, no external requests beyond the feed itself
Respects prefers-reduced-motion: falls back to a static scrollable strip
