Late to the Ticker Game

brittcraw75 · December 2013

Ok, so I've tried to add a ticker to my signature before. It didn't work then, and it isn't working today. I've chosen a ticker (tried two different ones, actually), clicked "Generate Code," and copied the code and proceeded to paste it into my signature field in my preferences. I click "Save," then go to one of my posts to see what's happening, and it's just showing up as a hyperlink code. I'm usually pretty adept with technology, but this is baffling me. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Help!

I had the same problem.... Someone posted a while back that instead of copying and pasting the code, copy and paste the actual image that is generated and store that in your signature. It worked for me

I think what I did, instead of pasting it right into the signature field, I clicked on "insert image" icon and pasted the link there. Hope that helps!

Aah.. thanks! I'll try it now

You'd think they'd have made the ticker signature process easier by now...right? haha

You can try just pasting the image. If you paste the code, you have to click the icon with the red <> on it first. That changes the mode so you can see all of the code, then you paste the code in there.
