@sdamps Does the news ticker have a shortcode? If it does, you can simply insert the shortcode in an advanced text widget and add the widget under the frontpage slider.

The plugin is called “Ditty News Ticker” the shortcode is [ditty_news_ticker id=”150″]. It works just fine but I will like for the ticker to appear across the entire front page below the header image.

Okay I have done that and it works, except there are two lines appearing at each end above the ticker going into the slider image. What could this be?
@sdamps Sorry I dont understand. Do you mean the space on the left and right of the widget?

@sdamps Just checked your site with Chrome, I am not seeing this. Can you please let us know what browser you are using?

I see it using safari and firefox. I also have another question. Initially I was working on the site locally, when I migrated over to become live the content was visible on the front end but when I went to the back end to edit, the content was no longer there. Is there a reason for this? I also had to upload all the images again. I’m hoping I do not gave to do this again since I will have to change the domain eventually.

Any way that I can remove that white space above the ticker as well?

Any way to make the images on the front page link to the actual album?
@sdamps
1. Can you please use a bigger image in the slider image field and see if the borders go away?
2. When you change the domain you will have to upload the images to your new domain again, so yes, you might have to change the images.
3. Just checked your site, I am not seeing a white space above the ticker.
4. yes, just remove the block image from the image field, and insert the image in the block’s content field and then click the image and click the “link” button from the editor toolbar to link them.
Regards
