    By default, when viewing individual testimonials, the plugin uses the single post template found in your theme. That template obviously does not contain your custom fields. So we need a custom template.

    Approach 1:
    You can make a custom template by copying your theme’s single post template and adding some code to display the custom fields – that may also involve other template part files, depdending on your theme.

    Approach 2:
    Copy the template provided by the plugin to your theme directory and modify as you see fit.

    I really need to write this tutorial ??

    Tell me if you want to try either of those and I will post more instructions.

    You may contact me at wpmission.com if you wish.

    Approach #1 will keep the testimonial looking like your regular posts.

    Approach #2 will make the testimonial look like what the plugin offers (gray background, border, bold title, etc.) and will override other shortcode options like excerpt and more_post, thus giving the template full control.

    Which do you prefer?

    We are working on this off-forum but for anyone looking to do the same (and until I can write that tutorial), I misspoke. I need the tutorial myself ??

    Approach #2 – copying the plugin template – will only control the loop of testimonials, either display or slideshow mode.

    To change how a single testimonial looks, you will need to copy your theme’s single.php to single-wpm-testimonial.php, and maybe other content part files, depending on your theme, then add template functions supplied by the plugin to show your custom fields.

    I will be glad to do the heavy lifting for you. Just contact me at wpmission.com.
