Editing layout for MiniTicker
- Posted by Lee Collings (4) Offline
How can I edit the markup for the 'Ticker Title' value, as specified in the Admin area?
I've created an override for the module, but this doesn't go that far back. It only allows me to edit the list of items that are displayed.
The title is surrounded by <span> tags, which allows styling, but I want to make this title linkable to another page on my site.

It is generated by generated by js actually. How about to add something like this in the Title Text at MiniTicker backend :
<a href="http://wyourwebiste"" target="_blank">Headlines

None of these options work.
The <a> tag in the backend won't work because upon saving, it simply gets stripped out, and reverts to the text inside the <a> tag.
And the jquery doesn't seem to render anything, using both jQuery and $ at the start.
Are you able to re-work it so that this title area appears in the layout php files, so it can be overridden?
