We have an important announcement about our popular stock market plugin WP Stock Ticker that will affect all current users.
Our plugin pulls the stock market, currency and commodity quotes from Yahoo Finance, via their API. Unfortunately Yahoo has decided recently to discontinue this free data service. They have not replaced it with any alternative service, free or commercial.
There is a Yahoo Community form located here that discusses this service closure.
Our plugin will no longer work as it does not have a data source.
We are offering refunds to customers who have recently purchased the plugin. Please contact our support team to organise this.
We are already looking at a new plugin that has much the same functionality for WordPress but draws data from a different source. When this plugin is ready we’ll be announcing it here and contacting all previous customers who’ve used the plugin.
