MarqueeX – Smooth Marquee Slider, News Ticker & Post Marquee for Block Editor & Elementor

MarqueeX builds continuously scrolling content in WordPress — logo carousels, announcement bars, news tickers and post or product marquees — with native widgets for Elementor and native blocks for the block editor.

The motion is CSS keyframes, not JavaScript. Each widget script is under a kilobyte, and scripts and styles are registered rather than enqueued, so they load only on pages that actually render a marquee.

Blocks for the block editor

• Text Marquee – Scroll custom messages or live post titles, with full typography control
• Image Marquee – Logo carousels, product strips and galleries in an infinite slider
• News Ticker – A fixed label badge beside continuously scrolling headlines
• Post Marquee – Posts, custom post types and WooCommerce products as scrolling cards with featured image, category, title, author and date
• Infinite Slider – A general-purpose scroller you fill with any inner blocks

Every block is scoped to its own class, so a block and its matching Elementor widget can sit on the same page without their styles colliding.

Widgets for Elementor

• Image Marquee – Scrolling image galleries, client logos and portfolio strips with hover effects
• Text Marquee – Promotional banners, announcement scrollers and text loops with full typography control
• News Ticker – Breaking-news feeds, live updates and stock-style tickers
• Post Marquee – Posts, custom post types and WooCommerce products with query controls, featured images and post meta
• Animated Heading – Headlines that cycle through phrases with Slide, Slide Horizontal or Typing animation
• Animated Word Roller – A fixed headline with a rotating word beside it
• Testimonial Marquee – Reviews and quotes scrolling past, with avatar, name, role and star rating
• Team Members Marquee – Staff photos with name and role in a continuous strip

Controls you get on every marquee

• Horizontal and vertical scrolling, in either direction
• Adjustable speed, with per-device values
• Pause on hover
• Edge fade masking
• Full typography, colour, spacing and border controls
• Responsive settings for desktop, tablet and mobile, using breakpoints you set
• Custom CSS per block

Shortcodes

[marqueex_slider], `[marqueex_ticker]` and `[marqueex_infinite]` are available for themes and page builders without a dedicated integration.

What Pro adds

MarqueeX is fully usable for free — no marquee limit, no watermark, no feature that stops working. MarqueeX Pro adds:

• Scroll interactions – Visitors can spin the mouse wheel over a marquee to speed it up or reverse it, or drag it to scrub through, with momentum on release. Works in Elementor and in the block editor.
• Advanced post query – Hand-pick exactly which posts scroll, or include and exclude by author and taxonomy term
• 8 more Animated Heading animations – 3D Rotation, Construct, Twist, Line, Wave, Swing, Tilt and Lean
• Gradient and image-masked heading text
• 4 more Word Roller transitions – Horizontal, Fade, Slide and Zoom
• Post Marquee card layouts – Six content placements, plus Overlay, Blury and Lighten text treatments

Works well for

• News and magazine sites – Breaking-news tickers and scrolling headlines
• Online stores – Product strips, promotional bars and logo walls
• Business sites – Client logos, testimonials and latest posts
• Portfolios – Project strips and image galleries
• Landing pages – Announcement bars and calls to action
