What is an Infinite Scrolling Ticker?
What is an Infinite Scrolling Ticker?
An infinite scrolling ticker is a visual element on a webpage that continuously scrolls a line of text or content (such as announcements, promotions, or updates) horizontally across the screen. It typically moves in one direction (left-to-right or right-to-left) and loops infinitely, creating a dynamic and engaging way to display information without taking up too much space.
In Shopify, it can be implemented using a combination of Liquid (Shopify's templating language), CSS, and sometimes JavaScript to ensure smooth scrolling behavior.
