Questions the author answers
Are there any settings I need to configure?
Each individual Ditty has multiple settings to customize.
I have added my shortcode but the Ditty is not displaying
The most common cause for an unresponsive Ditty (when using scroll or rotate mode) is a javascript error on your site coming from another plugin or theme. Any type of javascript error will most likely kill any other javascript that is loaded after it. You will need to resolve any javascript errors before the Ditty will start render.
