If you’re running the latest version of WordPress, all default widgets (including the RSS widget that ships with WordPress) are multi-instance. This means you can drag multiple instances of the same widget onto the sidebar and have each one contain different content.
So without knowing exactly which “RSS scrolling widget” you’re using, I can only speak in general terms … but yes, typically you can have duplicate RSS widgets in the sidebar that list news items from different sources.
is the question about a scrolling content or the “multiple part” .
My guess is that If you want to have a scroll box , add a regular text widget where you add the links and then you need to wrap your links around an overflow:scroll – here is an example – of course u can play with the css to make it “nice”
<div style="height:120px;width:150px;overflow:scroll;">As you can see, once there's enough text in this box, the box will grow scroll bars... that's why we call it a scroll box! You could also place an image into the scroll box.
</div>
The plugin RSSImport has an pagination function and can include feeds in the sidebar, via Widget, Shortcode or PHP function. You can use Yahoo Pipes for create an feed form many different feeds and include this via plugin. Maybe this is an solution for your requirements.
