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 Usage Shortcode: [teched-tv-ticker] With overrides: [teched-tv-ticker feed="https://medium.com/feed/techedtv" count="8" speed="60" label="From Medium"] Template tag, anywhere in a theme: <?php if ( function_exists( 'techedtv_ticker_render' ) ) { techedtv_ticker_render(); } ?> Return the markup instead of printing it: <?php $html = techedtv_ticker_get( array( 'count' => 6 ) ); ?> There is also a “TECHED.TV Ticker” widget under Appearance > Widgets.
