Ticker Tool and Display Banner  

Included in the banner display area on each page is the option to have a constantly scrolling ticker bar that changes display information based on the Ticker Tool setting. On each page the user can have information displayed that has been entered into the tool shown below

Navigation

• Open the Ticker Tool by accessing it from the Menu list (Menu > Communication > Ticker).  

Adding a Ticker Item

• Opening the tool will show a user the blank text area and two buttons.
• Adding an item to display is as simple as typing in what words will be shown, and then click the Add New Ticker button.
• This will add the text entered to the list of ticker items to be managed and activate the ticker display on all pages in the banner section.

• Additional items can be entered as ticker options.
• As more and more items are added, the list grows to show the previously entered text.
• To the left of each text, the element is a checkbox. This checkbox will allow the user to check the items that need to be included in the broadcast Ticker display on each page banner.
• Unchecking an item will remove the message from the display, but does not delete it from the  Ticker management.

Managing Ticker Items

• Any changes to the content, order, or deletion of Ticker elements will display after the Save Changes button is pressed. 
• The order in which items are cycled through in the display banner for the Ticker is controlled by the order they appear in the tool.
• To rearrange the order, click an item and drag it into a new position between other items.

Editing and Deleting Ticker Items

• Individual items can have their text edited by clicking on the pencil icon  .
• The text can be changed and saved.
• Similarly, an item can be removed entirely from the Ticker tool by clicking on the trash can icon. This will remove the item from the list and not be displayed on the banner sections of any pages.
