 * I have a ticker with 1 line in my sidebar… so far so well
 * When the page is loading the sidebar is loading and after a while when the ticker
   starts all other elements are moving down by the hight of the ticker.
 * What I want is that there is no move of the sidebar elements down of the ticker.
   The height the ticker needs must be preloaded.
 * I have tried all settings like “render empty rows”. Any idea how to solve this?

 * You’ll need to add custom css to set a static height to your ticker.
 * Here’s an example of what to use, added to your News Tickers > Settings page (
   or anywhere else you can add custom css):
 *     ```
       #mtphr-dnt-2886-widget {
         height: 14px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Change the **2886** to the post ID of your ticker, and change the **14px** to
   the height you need it to be.
