The plugin creates a nice horizontal newsticker which can be placed anywhere in WordPress system (posts, pages, sidebars, etc.).
Tested in WordPress 3.0 – 3.2, expected to be compatible from 2.6+.
Demo in action: http://chernivtsi.ws (in Ukrainian).
What’s New in 0.7
- Moved settings from widget to options
- Added shortcode support
- Added theme tag support
- Minified js script
- Added Russian localization
Upgrade Notice
0.5 to 0.7
Your previous version widget will be unusable, however, the plugin will attempt to preserve the previous setup. Backup your current settings from the wigdet to a text file, than navigate to “Settings->RP New Ticker” for the new setup.
but its not working. when i try to activate, it gives following error. Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM in /home/easysol/public_html/wp-content/plugins/rp-news-ticker/rp-news-ticker-loader.php on line 92
kindly help me it out
1) Your php version can be too old (php 4?).
OR
2) The file /home/easysol/public_html/wp-content/plugins/rp-news-ticker/rp-news-ticker-loader.php is uploaded partially, please fully remove the plugin directory by hand and reinstall (or reupload).
Please translate things like T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM into English next time…

The weird name means Duuble Colon in Hebrew.
We are on version php 5+
We have the same problem as above… Is it wordpress plugin downloading it partially or some proxy servers on the planet are corrupt??
Try to download the plugin from this web site https://www.webprojectsconsulting.com/downloads/rp-news-ticker-07.zip and install manually. Same error?
I’m getting the same error as above. I even tried your suggestion Alec, but it still results in the same error.
Works on local wamp server with php version PHP Version 5.3.4 but not in remote server with php 5.2.13,can anybody fix the code? very good plugin,but version 07 not working,also tried to upgrade from 0.5 to 07 but not working this way also.
Use 0.5 for php < 5.3. Will make 5.2 compatible for the next release.
Ok,but how can i add it to wordpress template,i tried but its not working with 0.5 that way,does 0.5 only works in sidebar? tnx
0.5 and 0.7 work totally differently (configure 0.5 from widgets section)
