The Testimonials Manager plugin for WordPress by Gobola Krishnan is a pretty handy plugin, especially if you have a business that likes to share what your clients think about your product.
It holds the ability to enter a name, the person’s site address, a small avatar, and the testimony itself. Users can display testimonies in their sidebar and the plugin generates a testimony page.
For anyone wanting to use this plugin, they will note that the plugin has a credit line published at the end of the page. This can be removed by editing the plugin files. However, with future updates, the attribute will simply overwrite this – putting the credit back up. I had this happen with a client who wanted to use this plugin, but did not want the attribution link on it.
I will note that if the plugin is edited within the WordPress admin panel, that the script will generate another new page. It is a bit of an annoyance, but easily fixed by deleting the newly created testimony page.
As for customizing the plugin itself, it takes finding the correct CSS classes and such, and adding them to the theme’s style sheet. (It might actually take putting up an example testimonial and viewing the source to see what the plugin produces. It might be an easier alternative to looking into the plugin’s files.)
Have you tried this plugin? How has it worked for you?
