And it seriously doesn't work in Joomla 3.2 if you ask it to display articles - totally breaks the whole site (using current vertex template) in any module position. Works only with plain text snippets. That's on e of the reasons the reviews on JED are bad. 
Perhaps this is the old version?

Hello,

Are you using the new article method with it or the older static text fade option between lines of text you add in the admin of the module?

Downloads updated, it was the correct file just old .zip name

Yes the new article method - the static text version works, but is not so useful. 
Appreciate any help.

Hello,

I did see there was an issue with the language file and a bit of CSS but other than this I can't replicate the issue.  Would you be able to post a URL of where this is occurring?

Thanks,

Hi
The site is offline atm, but there's really not much to see!
As soon as you switch on the module and enable it for articles, the articles appear as a bullet list. The only content of the page is as shown below. I have the ticker in the breadcrumb on the homepage (only),  but any module position does the same.

   <script type="text/javascript">
    // You can also use "$(window).load(function() {"
    jQuery(function () {
      jQuery("#s5_newsticker_slides").responsiveSlides({
        speed: 400,
            nav: true,
                  auto: true,
              pager: true,
      });
    });
  </script>
 

<div id="s5textrotatecls_otr" style="position:relative;display:block;width:200;height:100; overflow:hidden;">

   <ul class="s5_newsticker_mc_" id="s5_newsticker_slides">
         <li>
         <a href="/~cargo2/index.php?option=com_content&amp;view=article&amp;id=214:newsflash-1&amp;catid=93:newsflash&amp;Itemid=221">New website:

Oh ok yeah I'm just not sure how to help without seeing it live first hand as I can't replicate the issue on my end when testing in Vertex free template and running the latest version of Joomla.  If you can give me access to the site even while offline I would be better able to assist you. 

Maybe try creating 2 new articles with nothing but "Test" as their text and throw them in a category.  Then point the News Ticker to this category.  This would be a test to just be sure there is nothing in your articles causing this issue.

OK, I fixed it.
It was a JEvents calendar module on the same page that also messed up the sidebar menu.
Solution was to disable Jevents bootstrap CSS (an option right at the bottom of their config)
Thanks for your help!
