@scott5532 How about using default newsfeed module?

[scott5532]

Hello,

Currently using the default news feed and it works fine, but looking around to see if there’s anything else that may display further information and not just the title.
I have the MI5 RSS “current threat level” running on our information mirror at work and don’t know if it shows anything else except “Current Threat Level: SEVERE”

Thanks for your comment,
Andy Scott

If you want to see more then just the title you must set the configurations options properly

check The Configuration options here.

Is there a module that makes the rss feed scroll across the screen like on TV

I have one that scrolls up but this is also run on my mini itx…Pi’s don’t like the scrolling. It heats up the PI…that is why the generic news module…it works great on the Pi!

I added the marquee script in the newsfeed.js file to make mine scroll across the screen…

}

			if (!this.config.showFullArticle) {
				var title = document.createElement("div");
				title.className = "normal large bold" + (!this.config.wrapTitle ? " no-wrap" : " ");
				title.innerHTML = "<marquee scrollamount=10 scrolldelay=90>" + this.newsItems[this.activeItem].title + "</marquee><br>";
				wrapper.appendChild(title);
			}

How do I add this @justjim1220

[justjim1220]

@jeffreyking

open your newsfeed.js

find this line… ‘if (!this.config.showFullArticle) {’

copy and paste that section with my section in the above post.

Why don’t you try the module listed above before you go changing the module files? At least see if it runs adequately on your setup first. :-)
