How to Customize the News Ticker - Horizontal Template

Change the title background color

1. Go to Control Panel > System > CSS Overrides.
2. Add the following code, at the bottom.

   /*Style for News Ticker - Horizontal template*/
   .axero-widget.axero-widget-ticker-horizontal.ticker-horizontal-dark-gray .axero-widget-content .marquee-sibling  {
       background: #555555;
       color: #ffffff;
   }

3. This code is for a dark gray background color. You can replace #555555 with your desired color. If you change the color, also replace ticker-horizontal-dark-gray with a name that describes your color (e.g., ticker-horizontal-orange).
4. Click Save CSS Overrides.
5. Click System > Page Builder.
6. Edit the page containing the News Ticker - Horizontal widget.
7. Edit the widget.
8. Click the Advanced tab.
9. In Custom CSS class, enter ticker-horizontal-dark-gray (or the name you created in step 3).
10. Save the widget and page.

Change the text color

1. Go to Control Panel > System > CSS Overrides.
2. Add the following code at the bottom.

   /*Style for News Ticker - Horizontal template*/
   .axero-widget.axero-widget-ticker-horizontal.ticker-horizontal-red-text .axero-widget-content li a {
       color: #ff0000;
   }

3. This code is for red text. You can replace #ff0000 with your desired color. If you change the color, also replace ticker-horizontal-red-text with a name that describes your color (e.g., ticker-horizontal-blue-text).
4. Click Save CSS Overrides.
5. Click System > Page Builder.
6. Edit the page containing the News Ticker - Horizontal widget.

10. Save the widget and page.

Note: If you customize both the title background color and the text color, separate the names in Custom CSS class with spaces. (For example, use ticker-horizontal-dark-gray ticker-horizontal-red-text to give a widget a dark gray title background and red text.)
