# News Ticker

The **News Ticker** module displays a smooth, scrolling stream of your latest posts or pages — ideal for announcements, headlines, and live updates. You choose what content feeds the ticker and how fast it moves, all from the Divi 5 Builder.

## How to add the News Ticker module

1. Add or open a section and row.
2. Click the grey **+** icon and search for **News Ticker**.
3. Insert it, then set the query and ticker options in the module settings.

## Content

### Query

- **Post Type** — pull items from Posts or Pages.
- **Included Categories** — comma-separated category IDs (leave empty for all).
- **Order By** (Date / Title) and **Sorted By** (Ascending / Descending).
- **News Limit** — how many items to show.
- **Exclude by IDs** and **News Offset** — skip specific or leading items.

### Settings

- **Use Title** / **Title Text** / **Title Position** (Left or Right) — add a fixed label beside the ticker.
- **Moving Speed** and **Moving Direction** (Left or Right).
- **Item Spacing** — gap between headlines.
- **Pause on Hover** — stop scrolling when a visitor hovers.
- **Use Bullet Before Item** and **Bullet Color**.

## Design

Open the **Title** panel to set the **Title Padding**, and use the standard **Text** and **Background** options to style the headline text and the ticker bar to match your site.

## Tip

Enable **Pause on Hover** on tickers that link out, so readers can click a headline without it scrolling away.
