Tricia K. 0 Posted March 17, 2006 You have to enter the bbCode in order for your ticker to show up in your signature. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

princess_n_thep 2 Posted March 17, 2006 Borrowed from another post from Jessiebear. Hope she doesn't mind. I don't mean to sound mean, but you could have found the same information with a search of it. Took me about 10 seconds. : The ticker....... I use Tickerfactory.com click on weight loss ticker pick your ruler then click next pick your slider click next fill in your stats click next scroll down page to the bb code box & cut the entire code in the box go back to LBT click on quick links click edit signature paste in signature box Easy! When you paste the code will show in the box but your ticker will show on your posts! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You will see a message on the screen that says Done! Your Ticket URL is: (and then there will be a long string of text starting with http://tickers.TickerFactory.com/..... 7.

Scroll down to the text box titled edit signature and place your cursor where you want your ticker to go 12. Click the icon called insert image - this is the one that is yellow with the two little mountains and sun on it 13. A window will pop up telling you to enter the URL of the image 14. Press Ctrl+V (hold these keys down at the same time) to paste the text you copied in step 8 above into this field. 15. Click ok and you're done! Your ticker should magically appear. 16. Click save signature and you're done - you can update it as often as you want by going to user CP, click on your current ticker and press delete - then repeat these steps to re-add. That's how I do it anyway :-).__________________ (another user (Kim) posted this for me, and it really helped) Hope it helps you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
