It’s 2023 and I’m on WP v. 6.2.2 Most of the reviews for this plugin appeared to be from several years ago so I was skeptical, but I had to come up with a simple, text-only, random testimonial widget to replace a more elaborate plugin which, to put it kindly, was no working. To my relief, Simple Testimonial appears to work fine in WP 6.2.2 and it’s exactly the solution we sought for an unobtrusive sidebar widget that serves up random testimonials. Thank you!

I wanted to display one random testimonial picked out of a particular category. This took me through a process of adding & activating 5 different plugins before finding this one that worked great, exactly as I wanted. I’m using Oxygen with Word Press and adding the shortcode was easy.

I’ll keep this review (very) short, as this is a classic case of “It does exactly what it says on the tin”!
I was personally looking for a simple plugin that would enable me to setup a list of short “soundbites” / testimonials – and then have them randomly displayed via a widget on (in my case) the right-hand-side of all pages on the Website I’m working on.
I found this Plugin high on Google – so thought I’d give it a try. BOY am I glad I did. Installation was a breeze – and within a matter of minutes I’d achieved precisely what I wanted! All that remained was for me to do some CSS work to present the content how I wanted it (i.e. to match the Website) – and bingo! I was done.
Highly recommended if you’re looking for something like this too. Big thanks to the authors.
John.

Super lightweight plugin, clean code, and best of all: no bloated styling! This plugin is exactly the simple testimonials plugin I’ve wanted without any of the extra fluff to get in the way.

I tried a bunch of different testimonial plugins and they all suffered from the same problem – they came with too many options. If a developer can’t set up a testimonial plugin in less than five minutes how will the client be able to handle it?
Thank you @pixelovely, you nailed it. Simple, clean, and most importantly it’s easy for the client to handle. I love the random testimonial option in the sidebar widget. This is by far the most requested feature I hear from clients, and most of those other overcomplicated plugins I tried didn’t even offer it.
Please, please, please keep it simple!

Does exactly what it says. Easy to style and manage. The only thing I would ever suggest adding someday might be categories for testimonials.
Thanks for a handy plugin!

Love the fact that it’s so clean, ready for styling and customizing.
A little thing though, the shortcode is too generic [testimonial]. I had to change it so that it wouldn’t call the theme’s built in shortcode. It works like a charm right out of the box!

I’m biased because I wrote this plugin, but my clients have loved it for years. They like that it is simple to manage all their testimonials in one place, but they have so much choice in how they can be displayed regardless of the theme they’re using.
