Hi,

1. At the moment yes, I will be adding in an option to change it.

2. It’s already there. use [hms_testimonials showdate=0] and it will turn it off. (Hidden undocumented feature).

3. Testimonial, author, url, date all have div tags around them. This allows you to use CSS to style them and float them if you wish. It’s another way to hide the date if you wanted as well.

To hide the date via CSS:
.hms-testimonial-container .date { display:none; }

Is this what you are looking for?

?? No problem.

1. I can add that in. It will end up being attributes added to the shortcodes for the start and limit.

example: [hms_testimonials start=1 limit=15]

2. So you are looking to have it paginate? So after the first 15 (example) there will be a Next Page to load more?

Can a sl. no. be assigned automatically

I don’t understand what you are asking here. There is a display order number that gets recalculated after you change the order.

Hey CobaltCat,

Use the widget instead of the shortcode for your sidebars. The widget is called HMS Testimonial Rotator.

No problem. I am glad you enjoy it.

Sorry about that. It was doing it in some spots while not in others. Please download the newest version (1.6.2) for the fix.

Thanks,
Jeff

@nnagarajan7,

You may be happy to learn that I have added in “templates” starting in version 1.6.1. You can use these in both the shortcodes and the widgets. They allow you to pick the order in which the testimonial, author, and url are displayed in.

1 – Testimonial, Author, URL
2 – Testimonial, URL, Author
3 – Author, Testimonial, URL
4 – Author, URL, Testimonial
5 – URL, Author, Testimonial
6 – URL, Testimonial, Author

Add template= and the number from above to your shortcodes. Widgets are a matter of selecting a drop down. It will always default to 1.

Hello,

Currently there is now setting for that. You could set a position:relative; on the hms-testimonial-container class and then use position:absolute on the testimonial, author and url classes. This is kind of “hacky” so I don’t know if you would want to go that route.

What kind of field are you adding? The testimonial textarea box supports HTML so you could probably get away with just adding it above the actual testimonial content.

I pushed an update this morning with those buttons and options. They default to off. Refer to the documentation page on turning the links on for the shortcode.

I have added Prev, Pause(Play), and Next links. The shortcode has options to enable the links along with the text for each one. The widget has similar options.

I will be pushing the update in the morning.

Thanks for the great idea.

Hello,

I will look into adding this in the near future. Thanks for the review. and I am glad you like it.
