Now to add the widget in the sidebar, Go to Layout >> Add a Gadget >> from the list select “Add HTML/JavaScript” and paste the following code in the HTML text box.
<div class="MBLnewsticker MBL-radius MBL-shadow MBL-easing" id="MBLnewsticker1">
<ul> <li>
<div class="MBL-content" data-link="http://mybloggerlab.com">Powered by MyBloggerLab (Don't remove or Widget will not work).</div>
</li></ul>
</div>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#MBLnewsticker1").MBLnewsticker({
feed:"http://feeds.feedburner.com/mybloggerlab",
width:"100%",
contentlinkcolor: "#766D6D",
timer:5000,
titlecolor: "#333",
titlefontsize: "16px",
itembgcolor: "#FFF",
contentlinkcolor: "#766D6D",
infobgcolor: "#f2f2f2",
bordercolor: "#DDD"
});
});
</script>
Now it’s up to you, if you want to customize the appearance of your ticker you can do it with absolute ease. Take a look at the following codes to learn about the customization of the ticker and usage of the codes:
- Replace http://feeds.feedburner.com/yoursitename with any other feed URL.
- Replace 100% from the above code, to reduce or increase the width.
- Replace 5000 with any other digit to increase or decrease the rotation animation of the ticker.
- Replace #FFF to change the background color of the info bar in the ticker.
- Replace #f2f2f2 to change the background color of the ticker.
- Replace #DDD to change the border color of the ticker.
- Replace #766D6D to change the color of the link appearing in the ticker.
Once everything is done, save the widget by pressing “Save” button present towards the bottom of the screen window. Congraltuations, you have successfully added a RSS news ticker widget in blogger sidebar.
We hope this tutorial may have helped you in learning how to add a RSS feed news ticker in blogger sidebar. Do share your thoughts about this new improve news ticker widget we have developed by blogspot users. If you like this widget, share it on Facebook, Twitter or Google+.
