Hello Gopi ,
thanx you for the nice plugin.
Its working fine as long as i’m not adding an image ..
In your demo the little pic is seen in the first place, but while scrolling it disappears or stuck some how…
Any idea ?
I#m using also the nivo slider on my page .. which got in trouble with your other nice plugin silder 50 image and post etc ..
nice weekend,
Steve
Our scroll is Continue scroll, so we need maintain the equal and enough height to all the records. if any problem in this setting the scroll may stuck.. or rollover each other..
Hello again,
thanx you for the quick help, i will try …
When the page is ready i will send you the link
i have on more question: Can i configurate the time (sec) showing the posts ?..
all the best,
Steve
you have to edit content-text-slider-on-post.js
if you want to regulate the speed of scrolling you have to change:
}
} else {
setTimeout(“scrollctsop();”, 10);
}
}
and if you want to change the time between the different texts you have to change:
// start scrolling
setTimeout(“scrollctsop();”, 20000);
}
Hi Jeremy,
I am new to editing code and changing features like this. Where would I find the content-text-slider-on-post.js file?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

OKAY PEOPLE, i found a way to regulate the time
you have to edit content-text-slider-on-post.js
if you want to regulate the speed of scrolling you have to change:
}
} else {
setTimeout(“scrollctsop();”, 10);
}
}

Hello,
Is there any way i can add this content slider plugin for sidebars Text Widgets ???
check my other plugin “Information Reel”
Hi !
I thank you very much for this plugin. Looks awesome, especially on the website I’m making
http://www.mtphotographycourses.com.au/
However, I’m encountering a W3C issue… Because it seems that the reg exp you use create slash in the code when I declare my div in the text management of the plugin.
And.. it creates W3C errors
Could you please give me a tip to remove this error ? I have tried a lot of different things (replace ” by ‘, add \ before, …), but I don’t manage to fix it…
I thank you very much and look forward to hearing from you !
Great stuff. I’ll fool around with it and see.
Carry on the great work…
Is there any way for the scrolling to stop when you hover on the content?
Thank you and I hope you (or anybody) respond/s.
hey love your plugins… I have several of them on my wordpress page… I just recently added this particular plugin to my site… I wanted to know is there any chance that you’ll be coming out with an update soon that allows you to control font size, speed of scroll, and possibly a text field/box around the text… just curious…
can we insert this plugin into widget area. how?
Use information reel plugin in my list.
great plugin for firefox but does not woek on chrome or mozilla?? -(
Hi,
Since I updated the wordpress website http://www.judithpoulteney.co.uk, the content text slider doesn’t show any more – it shows now just the code. I didn’t change any of the settings. Could you please help?
Hi
Since I didn’t get any help from you, I’ve now installed a different content slider plugin – and it works!
Since the recent update, shortcodes no longer work inside the slider. For example, I used to have a testimonial shortcode for customer quotes [box_quote] and I had each item in the slider formatted as such, but now the shortcodes don’t work. And ideas/suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks in advance for your help!
Please find the new short code in the post
hi, Nice, effective widget. But a few things would make it even better:
1. can I change the name of the groups from Group1, Group2 etc to News, Events, etc? and then I could pull the short code with a smarter group name?
2. put classes on the title/a tag and the text area too, so its easier to build CSS for these elements
3. allow an options to pull x latest posts from y category of existing posts [so don't need to double enter texts]
[easy things to do on your end. without going into the code on my end obviously
]
thanks!!
Ive inserted the short code and can see the text on the page but nothing is scrolling

Hello!
I want to enter a picture along with the text and I understand that I need to enter a url of the picture location. But how do I specify the size of the picture (make it smaller in my case)?
Do I need to save a file, then change the size manualy and put somewhere and then refer to it?
Little bit too complicated, especially when I want to add many strings of texts.
waiting for your answer.
Great plugin though!
Hello,
Great plugin! Thanks. How can I style the individual elements – title and message? I found a class – .ctsop_div for both but would like to target each separately.
Hi Gopi,
Is there any solution to make two sliders working on same page ?
Coz i’ve mine is not working.
Is it because of the conflict?
I’ve read something under changelog / update in your readme.txt and stated there ‘use new short code’ to avoid conflict.
Could u write it here what is the short code?
Thanks!
Great Plugin!
How can i change the color of the text and the title? Can’t find the right class for CSS?
Thanks
The only way I could find to do it was to edit the content-text-slider-on-post.php file which you’ll find in wp-content > plugins > content text slider on post. Here’s a copy of what I did – You’ll see where I added the style for italic:
Line 327:
if($ctsop_title “” )
{
$ctsop_html = $ctsop_html . ““;
$IRjsjs = $IRjsjs . ““;
Line 347:
if($ctsop_text “” )
{
$ctsop_html = $ctsop_html . “$ctsop_text”;
$IRjsjs = $IRjsjs . “$ctsop_text”;
Hi, I am a newbie. I loaded your plug in short code onto a new page and it has shown up on my home page. But I have no idea where to find the Admin setting page or the Text Admin page to create my content. i have searched everywhere.
Help!
Thanks.
Hello Gopi,

Is it possible to make the Content text slider on post, automatically pauses on mouse over, like

Thank you very much.
Hello Gopi,
I installed the plugin but it doesn’t move. The scroll doesn’t work no matter what settings I use.
Please help me.
Thank you
Hi. Could you tell me how to either lengthen the time that the slider pauses on each slide, and how to slow down the scroll. Thanks
Thanks br.
Hello,
