Platinum Ticker -- Watch Posts Scroll By like a Stock Ticker!

[George Spellwin]

Platinum Members,

Get up-to-the-minute information on what's happening on the Elite Fitness Boards with the new Platinum Task Bar Ticker. Watch the newest posts scroll by just like the stock exchange.

To install the ticker on your Windows 98 or higher computer (also works on Windows 95 with IE5+ installed) follow these instructions.

1. Right-click on your Taskbar (The gray bar next to "Start") and go to Toolbars -> new toolbar.

2. Type "http://www.elitefitness.com/forum/ticker2.php" without the quotes in the location box.

3. Click OK

If you want the posts to scroll vertically, use this link instead of the one above.
http://www.elitefitness.com/forum/ticker.php

Is you have trouble, try the following:

Rightclick your taskbar.
Make sure the Lock the Taskbar is unchecked.
Right Click the title.
Make sure that Show Title is unchecked.
Relock taskbar.

I didn't even see this. That's a pretty cool addition. One thing though. Is there a way to still be logged in after clicking on the subject and the window popping up? Otherwsie I like it

Sure, Just make sure you allow cookies. This is an option in your profile I believe.

I like the feature but (there’s always a but), is there any way for us as users to configure the ticker so that it only displays select forums? For example; I care to view the Anabolic, Platinum and Fitness boards, but don’t care so much about the Lifestyle and Between The Sheets boards.
