Slider/Ticker Question
 
How do you add the slider/ticker to ones profile?

Thanks!

mandalinn82 10-14-2008 12:14 PM

Tickers are available to members who have at least 20 posts and have been members for at least 20 days. We had to put the restriction in due to spammers taking advantage of user signatures to put spam-type links.

Thanks!

I was wondering the same thing...Thanks!:)

Dang I just started too!

thinlizzie10 02-11-2010 08:34 AM

Me too! Stupid spammers. I was really looking forward to creating a ticker as part of my profile setup!:)

nicholealyssa 02-11-2010 09:57 AM

me too! I keep checking back to see if I can make one because I know I started up in January I just don't know the exact day! lol

Kristi78 02-14-2010 07:07 PM

Please help...

I see where to make the ticker and get the code, but where do I enter the code at? I don't see a "signature" field in the User CP.

Thanks in advance :)

Suzanne 3FC 02-15-2010 12:28 PM

Kristi, once it hits 20 days all the way down to the time you registered, your signature field will appear to you :) The system updates hourly.

Robinegg 02-21-2010 11:19 AM

That was going to be my first question. Just started today. Looks like I will have to post and wait!!!!!

Sister Kate 02-15-2011 07:24 PM

Same here !!
 
I find it tad bit confusing. I had to register for different blogs and register to be able to post. Was also anxious to have a ticker/tracker. Will just have to wait the days and hope they are lost of positive days in the next 20.

ChubbyBride325 02-16-2011 01:00 AM

Darn....I wanted a ticker too! Oh well. Maybe I will be ticked down closer to my goal by the time I get to have one! =)

MrsMerch 02-17-2011 12:18 PM

Is there a way to find out what your exact day of joining is? And when the 20 days has expired, will the ticker automatically appear on my posts?

mandalinn82 02-17-2011 12:28 PM

Your join date is in your profile if you click your username - yours was 1/25. You will auto-promote to having ticker privileges at around the time you joined, after 20 days have lapsed since that join time (the system might take an extra hour or so to update you)

A signature option will appear in your user profile around the time you hit the 20 day mark. You can then paste your ticker code into your signature to have it displayed in your posts.

loulou75 02-23-2011 02:03 PM

I think I have completed 20 days and have more than 20 messages but I can't see that option yet.
Do I do anything wrong?

mandalinn82 02-23-2011 02:09 PM

You have been a member for 19 days. The system automatically updates when you've been a member for 20 24-hour days.

OK Lizzy 02-23-2011 03:03 PM

I've wondered something over the years I've been "lurking" around this site. Why are some of us "junior members" -- others are "senior members" -- others are neither? Does this also have to do with the number of posts we've made?? Thanks for the info!

mandalinn82 02-23-2011 04:23 PM

"Junior Member" is the status of new members who haven't gotten the 20 days/20 posts yet. The system auto-promotes to "Senior Member", which has signature and PM privileges, after that time.

whoknew 02-25-2011 04:45 PM

Glad I found this before I posted the exact same question ;) 20 days seems sooooo long (said like a kid waiting for her birthday- bahahaha) LOL!

takingcontrol 03-01-2011 10:01 AM

Testing my new sig.....

chinadoll873 03-01-2011 11:41 AM

Hey! You reached your goal on my birthday 10-28! I'm testing my ticker..hopefully I did it right...lol

NurseKim112 03-01-2011 07:44 PM

Maybe consider putting that on the signature creater page... I just spent the last 45 minutes trying to figure it out! AAARRGGGHHH

Thank you. I thought I was doing something wrong!

Lrn932 03-04-2011 11:06 PM

me too when I tried to get a ticker, I tried to put it in my bio but it only showed the link lol

whoknew 03-17-2011 11:45 PM

LosinJen 04-15-2011 03:30 PM

Awww man! Yes now I'm just a few days away so I'll TRY to be patient! :(

Ruthxxx 04-16-2011 06:45 PM

Yes, you CAN cheat but it is discouraged. When new folks do that, the MODs get complaints as in "She joined after I did. Why does she get a ticker and I don't? :( "
Please don't past one in. The MODs are volunteers and really very busy. Help us out.

skinniminni 04-16-2011 06:50 PM

my mistake :o! i will try to be a bit more patient.... i was just curious! ;)

Momacelli 04-16-2011 11:16 PM

another signature test...

Monda 08-29-2012 12:41 PM

Thank you for the answers on this thread I couldn't figure out how to add one. Now I know I just need to wait a bit.

Kymish 09-29-2012 12:47 AM

masterptr 10-02-2012 01:00 PM
