I’m having a serious problem with running a “Newsflash” module in the “left” position on the template.

If I publish any newsflash module in the left position and set it to “Show Title”, the newsflash stops working i.e. it does not scroll through the article set anymore! Setting it to hide the title results in the module working OK.

I have tried numerous newsflash modules, and have the same problem with every one of them.

I think it is a conflict in Javascript, because the modules in the left position have the functionality of being able to collapse or minimise the module contents and I think this is Javascript controlled. It seems that this code is interfering with the newsflash code.

I’ve raised a Critical ticket with support, but haven’t received a reply as yet :((

If anyone has any ideas I’d be reaaly grateful because I need it to work properly with the title enabled.

Thanks,

Nilay.

Well Im not sure which news flash module you tried so far.

I normally use jadrimia news flash module. It worked fine for me.

Also have you tried the news flash module in other positions? Are they working fine in other positions? If they are working fine in other places then some problem could be as you say or for me newsflash works absolutely fine in all my sites.

I’ve tried many of them.

I’ve used the JA Drimia newflash module as well (it’s called JA Newsflash module), but have a problem with it:

When I tried it, the first article in the category shows up, and after that the next article shows “Restricted Access”. I don’t know why this is – all the articles in the category are set to “Public”. Anyway, someone on another forum suggested the problem could be resolved by creating a hidden menu with all the same articles in it, but this has not worked for me.

The Newsflash module I am trying right now is YS NS1 (Yoothemes newsflash module) which has really good functionality with a lot of customisation features. It works fine with the title setting off, but as soon as you turn the title setting on, it only shows the first article and stops scrolling through the rest of the articles in the category.

You can see both newsflashes in action on the page of the site I am creating at:

Right now the only way I can run the top newsflash is with Title turned off – if I turn it on it will stop scrolling through the articles…
