I did a ticker also, and pasted into my signature, but don't see it on my post???  Must have done something wrong :-)

I am so glad that I am not the only one who cant use the ticker, even my savy daughter could not do it. When we cut and paste where do we paste it?

I finally got mine to work with the help of my daughter ES15. I forgot to hit change profile button when all was done,when you cut and paste you paste it on Signature under Forum Profile Information that you will see off to the left, then hit change profile. I hope this is right it worked for us, if not ask Doug to help lol.

Hi Sweeties  I hate that you are having so much trouble setting your ticker up.  It does seem a bit tricky at first.  ;)  I'm not a computer wiz but I do know a little.  Lets see if we can help out......Once you click on someone else's ticker and it takes you to the site, click on create my own and fill in the info...it will prompted you to set up a pin so you can go back from time to time to change the settings.  

If you have gotten to this point, copy the bbcode shown in the box to share on forums.  Once it is on your clip board open your profile on the forum.  On your profile page looking on the left hand side it will show you: Profile Info, Modify Profile, Actions.  In the Modify Profile section click on Forum Profile Information.  Now that you are on that page scroll down and you will see
"Custom Title:
Signature:
Signatures are displayed at the bottom of each post or personal message. BBC code and smileys may be used in your signature "  and a box to paste your code in.  This is where you want to paste to and like ladyluck said don't forget to click change profile to save your work  ;)  

You can also add a few words or smileys under that to jazz it up if you like.  Just make sure you aren't adding it within the code itself.  I hope this helps and I didn't confuse anyone.  If you have any questions please ask  :)
