      Another apology…

      When I was working with this module I had the font set to xlarge or large in the MMM-NewsFeedTicker.js file.

      It makes it easier for these old eyes to see changes,

      So, in the following section of the js file…

       var headline = document.createElement("span");
                      headline.setAttribute("style", "padding-bottom:25px");
                      headline.className = "bold xlarge bright";
                      headline.innerHTML = "<font color= #ffaa00>" + moment(new Date(this.newsItems[this.activeItem].pubdate)).fromNow() + ": &nbsp;" + "</font>" + this.newsItems[this.activeItem].title + "&nbsp; || &nbsp;" + this.newsItems[this.activeItem].description;
                      tickerBody.appendChild(headline);
      

      Change the ‘xlarge’ to small

                  This has resolved the issue I had. I tried small and it was a little too small so I set that value to medium and it’s perfect for me. Thank you for pointing this out and providing the solution! Now this will stream my news.

                    @striiker

                    Add this to custom.css, Make the changes you want in it…

                    .MMM-NewsFeedTicker {
                        height: 100px;
                        background-color: maroon;
                        opacity: 1.0;
                    }
                    
                    .MMM-NewsFeedTicker .headline {
                        padding-top: 15px;
                        font-size: 100%;
                    }
                    
                    .MMM-NewsFeedTicker .image {
                      height: 100px;
                      background-color: #FFF;
                    }
                    

                    Let me know if you have any problems with this.

                    I am glad that you like it! :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

                    Concerning adjusting the opacity of the colored bar, how to I set it to 50%? I tried 0.5 and it didn’t seem to make any difference. Thanks again!

                      @Mykle1 I have a Synology NAS running Docker…I really need to learn how to install this all in a docker package and edit it and run it from the Server…

                      I’m afraid I can’t help you with that. I have no experience with, or knowledge of, that. Perhaps someone else can help you. Good luck, my friend. :-)

                        Well, you might think about changing the color or having no color.

                        I just worked with it going all the way down to 0.1 and this is the result:

                        0_1540513439867_Screenshot (156).png

                        this is without a background color…

                        0_1540513583820_Screenshot (157).png

                        just change background-color: maroon; to background: none;
