Rotating banners

[DScryber (David Scryber)]

is there a way to pin more than one banner at a time and have them rotate?

No that feature doesn’t exist, could you describe what you have in mind a little more? what would the purpose of multiple rotating banners be?

I have two or three events that are happening simultaneously. I’d like to rotate them so my members are aware of each of them.

Bit of a leftfield suggestion, but I just tripped over this while browsing and thought it might be useful to you? (it’s quite old, but maybe still relevant?)

Use Google Slides to make a banner

For those of you who are not aware, Google Slides can be embedded directly into the ‘top’ of Discourse, making a very effective, animated, rotating banner. Very useful for adding a little eye candy, or inserting your own paid ads, or perhaps info about your site. They are very easy to ‘make’ - simpler even than PowerPoint and… are free (at least in low volume usage). Here’s 2 slides from one of my test sites, with each element on the page being timed to arrive in sequence using various effects…

You don’t need to use outside resources to achieve that.

If each event has an image consider Topic List Previews which has a Featured Image component that works off tag and sits at the top. You can tag three Topics and it will show an excerpt on hover. Click on one and it navigates to the target Topic. There is also a TC version of Topic List Previews.

There’s also a simpler TC that does that specifically which might work better for three topics only: Homepage Feature Component
