Plantilla:Ticker/ús

Ús

This is a template to include the ticker. It makes including a ticker for the standard case (Displaying last published articles one at a time) easier. If you want to do something really funky/weird/unusual with the ticker system, see the comments in en:mediawiki:ticker2.js or ask en:user:Bawolff.

This is using the second incarnation of the ticker system.

Basic usage. {{ticker|Africa}} displays all published articles in cat Africa. {{ticker}} displays the latest published news. See en:User:Bawolff/sandbox/ticker for more funky examples of the ticker (ex. picture slideshow).
