Why Use This Widget

Use the News Ticker widget when you have short, time sensitive updates that should stay visible without taking over the whole page. The ticker scrolls headlines or brief messages in a single line, making it easy for visitors to notice what is new as they browse. This is useful for news sites, financial platforms, educational portals, product status updates, and communities with frequent announcements. You can link each snippet to a full article or section for those who want more detail. The ticker format keeps your homepage and dashboards compact while still signaling activity and relevance, and it helps returning users quickly see whether there is anything important they should check.
