Add RSS to TopBar

Sure, you can do that by going to the Social Buttons tab, adding an RSS icon to an unused Social Icon, and using the RSS for the Link (URL).

The plugin comes with an RSS image, found here: …/wp-content/plugins/wp-topbar/lib/icons/PNG/rss.png or you can add your own.

Yes, thank you, but I meant to say I have a the code for Ditty News RSS Ticker, can I add it to the top bar, to scroll to the left? The shortcode or direct function already tells the php to do that – it looks like this:

<?php if(function_exists(‘ditty_news_ticker’)){ditty_news_ticker(1004);} ?>

but how do I add that to the topbar?

You can try this in the PHP tab:

echo do_shortcode('[ditty_news_ticker(1004]');

I suspect that this will be shown above or below your existing TopBar (depending if you use the Before or After PHP sections.)

You will have to play a bit with your CSS to position the RSS ticker exactly where you want it. You might have to echo out ‘<div id=myrss >’ and ‘</div’> to be able to reposition the RSS ticker. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to help you craft your CSS to relocate the ticker – it will be very tricky and time consuming for me (since I am am not a CSS expert.)

Closing – no response in a week.
