    Hi

    Just started using this plugin and very impressed I would of liked slightly more control over styling but in terms of creating good testimonials out of the BOX hands down the best plugin I’ve tried and I’ve tried many !!!!

    Anyway I am trying to create a testimonial page and want each testimonial to link to the product page (bands) is there a way to just insert a link into the testimonial text ? I’ve done the when creating a testimonial but the link doesn’;t work on a page ?

    Thanks @adminel. I plan to add more style control. Let me know if you need help with custom CSS.

    You should be able to manually add links in the testimonial content as long as you’ve selected the “entire content” option in the view. The automatic and manual excerpt options will strip links.

    If all testimonials will link to the same product page, you can try the “Read more link to a page or post” option (in the Extra section of the view) and “in each testimonial”. In the default template, for example, that places a link in the lower left corner so it may not be ideal.

    I will more options for linking to a product page to the feature request list.

    Hi Chris

    Thanks for your prompt response sorry I am new to this and not great with coding. Also its probably me but i am to entirely sure what you mean in your message.

    I have tried to explore your advice about the entire content but it does not seem to give me more options to adda link in the testimonial post.

    I would like to have the content in the testimonial with Tell me more on the end linking to each separate act page is hat possible ?

    Each testimonial entry on the testimonial page needs to link to a separate page so the read more link won’t work. What is the best and easiest way to accomplish this ?

    Thanks

    Tim

    You probably need to clear the cache after making changes like that.
