Display brand logos in a one- or two-row infinite scrolling ticker with edge fade effects.

== Description ==

Slim Brand Ticker displays your partner or client logos in seamless scrolling rows. The top row moves to the left and the bottom row moves to the right. Leave either row empty to show a single-direction ticker. Logos gently fade out at both edges for a polished look.

= Features =

* One or two infinite scrolling rows. An empty row is not displayed.
* Edge fade mask on both sides
* Lightweight frontend: CSS animation plus a small script that measures the loop
* Logo management from the WordPress admin
* Multiple tickers via `[brand_ticker]` and `[brand_ticker id="ticker-id"]`
* Respects `prefers-reduced-motion`

== Installation ==

1. Upload the `slim-brand-ticker` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress.
3. Go to **Settings → Slim Brand Ticker** and add your logos.
4. Place `[brand_ticker]` in a page, post, or widget.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= How do I display the ticker? =

Use the `[brand_ticker]` shortcode for the default ticker, or `[brand_ticker id="your-ticker-id"]` for another ticker.

= Can the logos scroll in only one direction? =

Yes. Add logos to the top row only to scroll left, or to the bottom row only to scroll right. The empty row is hidden.

= Can I change the animation speed? =

Yes. Adjust the speed in **Settings → Slim Brand Ticker**, or use `[brand_ticker speed="30"]`.

== Screenshots ==

1. Dual-row logo ticker on the front end, with logos fading at both edges.
2. Logo manager for the top and bottom rows, plus display settings.
3. A separate ticker with its own shortcode. An empty row is not displayed.
4. Per-logo alt text, title, link, and optional noopener noreferrer.
