What It Does

This plugin provides a quick and easy way to add testimonials to your site.

Easily add testimonials using a custom post type that is not public to avoid detail page URL issues. The testimonials are displayed in a simple and center-aligned style, inheriting text and link styles from the currently active theme.

The plugin is translation ready and comes with related pot and po files. It works well with RTL (Right to Left) languages, as the styles are center aligned without the need for special styles.

It is compatible with the Visual Composer Plugin, allowing for further customization.

Documentation is available, including shortcodes to display all testimonials, a specific number of testimonials, testimonials related to a category, or a single testimonial.
