News Rotator is a plugin that displays news in a rotator fashion anywhere on your Sitefinity site. It slides through all the news you have available on your website and displays a nicely formatted thumbnail, title, and time of the it was published. A click of the slideshow will take you to the full news page. A great way to showcase your articles!

Hi again Basem
I have been in contact with SiteFitity/Telerik team and they have suggested that my previous error was becaseu you have compiled for the community version. Is there any chance that you might provide a Standard edition version as well. Please note, I get the same error using the events Rotator as well.
Many thanks
Steve
Do you, by chance, happen to have any plans to release a version that works with v3.7 SP3?
Current code for this control errors when deployed on site with SF v3.7 SP3.
I have just released the new version of the News Rotator. It is definitely worth the upgrade as there are many improvements and bug fixes. It is much easier to install and works for multiple versions of Sitefinity without recompiling.
