How Do I Add a Ticker to WordPress News?

Adding a ticker to your WordPress news site is simple, and can be done in a few minutes. First, you will need to find a ticker symbol that you would like to use. There are many sources that offer this information, including Yahoo! Finance and Google Finance. Once you have found the ticker symbol, you will need to copy it into your WordPress site’s css file. Next, you will need to create a new widget in your WordPress site’s Widgets area. You can find this area by clicking on the Appearance tab in your WordPress site’s admin area, and then selecting Widgets.

Once you have found the Widgets area, you will need to click on the Add New widget button. You will then need to select the Ticker tab, and then paste the ticker symbol into the Text field. You will then need to select the Update button, and your ticker will be added to your WordPress site. Finally, you will need to add a link to your WordPress site’s home page, and your ticker will be displayed on your news site.
