My individual testimonial pages return a 404 error. I have my Permalinks set to /%category%/%postname%/ and my slug set to testimonials. I tried removing the slug, the instructions say the default is testimonials, but the default is actually sk_testimonials and I still get the error. The client wanted to link to the individual page for each testimonial but it doesn’t look like that will be possible here.

I’d like to be able to add the date posted to the testimonial. And I can’t just thrown in a PHP get_the_date function into the design box.

Any recommendations on the best way to do that?

In my case, I needed to specify a specific testimonial to be called on the clients specific page.

in sk-testimonials/skt_display/html_output.php on line 41 I added:

if (isset($args['id'])) {
		$postID = $args['id'];
	}

in the same file on line 78 I added:
'p' => $postID,

in sk-testimonials/skt_display/shortcodes.php on line 10 I added:

'id' => '',

Now I can use the following shortcode to specify the testimonial by ID (can be found by hovering over the testimonial name in the view all testimonials screen. Look for the number after ‘post=’.)

[testimonials id=214]

Where are the shortcodes and any shortcode options documented? I can’t find it. thanks

I have found yet another major problem with this plugin today. It seems that there is no way to easily integrate the testimonial page functionalty with the existing theme’s layout choices.

When I visit the testimonial page created by the plugin, it displays all the testimonials without allowing me to choose page layout. For example, I cannot display this page with a sidebar of my choosing. Even stranger is that on this page it is generating a sitemap of sorts, displaying text links for every single page on my website. I have no idea why it’s doing that.

What really needs to happen here is having the ability to insert all of your testimonials into a page of your own choosing and making. In other words, you should be able to call all the testimonials into any page on your site. This makes a lot more sense than an auto-generated page that doesn’t take into account the settings and layout of your website.

The settings to control how a page loads make sense, and should stay. But you should be able to use any page on your site, that you control the layout for, sidebars, etc.

I hope the creator of this plugin will take this advice and run with it. Right now I’m pretty dissapointed as I thought this was how the plugin worked to begin with.

Hello,

My compliments on this plugin… it was exactly what I was looking for.

I discovered a small but frustrating bug which I’m hoping you’re either already aware of, or can repair relatively quickly. It seems that when using this plugin as a widget, the “Show Excerpts instead of full content?” checkbox gets stuck in the selected status once saved that way. When you first add the widget this checkbox is unselected by default. If you save it that way from the start, there’s no problem. However, if you check this box once, and press save, there is no way to ever unselect it. At that point whenever you resave the settings this checkbox magically reselects itself. So there’s no way to undo it!

This is actually causing a problem for us right now, and we’d be very grateful if you could fix this bug.

Other than this, everything is working extremely well thus far. We have created our own custom display code and are using it in the sidebars of our official site. We will soon be placing this on its own dedicated page as well. The fact you can custom code the layout and css makes this the best testimonials plugin I have seen out there.

Thank you ahead of time for your help!

If a Featured Image is chosen, the link to the image is broken followed by this remaining syntax:
" />

It seems like there needs to be an if else statement added to this plugin in case the testimonial has a featured image or not.

Tested using this plugin’s default CSS and WP default theme.

It is not ready to use now functionality doesn’t work proper way.

Love this plugin!! Is there anyway to limit how many testimonials show up on a page and then have it automatically paginate? Using the Genesis framework. Thanks!
