T4B News Ticker – Responsive News Scroller, Slider, and Animations

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 74% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   For each version update, the custom message is flashing with the list of last articles. When I open T4 Ticker settings the custom message is not set. This topic was modified 2 months, 2 weeks ago by jrostinmagnin.

   I have used this plugin for 5 years an suddenly after the 21 May Update. The banner has stopped scrolling and just flashes news items over the top of each other. Not useable! Sorry.

   I’ve tried almost all the popular news ticker plugins, and T4B News Ticker is hands down the best. It’s simple, easy to use, lightweight, and works flawlessly. The interface is clean, and setup takes just a few minutes. Most importantly, it doesn’t slow down the site — which is a big win! What I love most is how effective it is without being overly complicated. Plus, the support is responsive, which is rare for free plugins. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a hassle-free, professional news ticker on WordPress. This topic was modified 1 year, 1 month ago by alamgiramirbd.

   The plugin is easy to use and works very well.For the “scroll mode”, I suggest you to make it “circular”, i.e. after the last ticker displayed, immediately restarts the queue without waiting for the first one to have completely disappeared.

   I’ve tried a few news tickers and I’ve found T4B News Ticker the easiest to setup and to regularly update the message. Setup on one page makes it easier too.
