[Plugin: Flexi Quote Rotator] Changing Title displayed on site from Quote Rotator

I’m having the same issue. Anyone got a fix?

I got around this by using the Black Studio TinyMCE plugin and using the shortcode for Flexi Quote Rotator.
Hopefully, there will be a more elegant solution to this problem…

Hello laughhearty – thank you, that has worked! Much appreciated!

I am having the same issue, what shortcode did you use, I can’t seem to make it work with the plugin you mentioned above.

Actually I was able to get it to work with the short code using the black studio plugin…however now it is displaying my title twice?

edit – I was able to get it to display only once now but the title text is much larger then the other widgets I have in my footer. Anyone know how to fix?

Hi Mattpugs,
add this to your CSS:

.textwidget h2 {
    font-size: 15px;
    line-height: 50px;
    margin: 0 0 10px;
    padding: 0;
}

The text widget is giving heading as h2 the others are h3. The code above makes that specific h2 the same size as the h3’s.

Thank you but I’m not sure if that will help, I actually have no idea what is causing it. Here is what I do know…with the black studio plugin if I add my title I want in the title field and put the shortcode [quoteRotator] in the text area it displays the title the normal size I want it but it also displays the title larger and underneath the smaller title…so weird.

If I go back and completely remove the title from black studio it displays the large title text even though I have no title at all. Where is it pulling the title from if I don’t have anything there? Ughhh so confusing…why can’t this quote plugin just work like I did a few months ago.

Did you try my solution? It would work, actually.
The reason why it’s larger is because it’s an h2 instead of an h3. You’d have to style the h2 in the text widget to be the same as the h3. Which is the code I gave you.

But secondly are you including the title in your shortcode?

[quoteRotator title="Testimonials" delay="8" fade="4" fadeout="2"]

It should look like this if you don’t want the title:

[quoteRotator delay="8" fade="4" fadeout="2"]

That may explain why the title is showing up twice when you title the TinyMCE.

Another thing if you added a title in the Flexi Quote settings it will show up. So you have to leave that blank.

Thats the problem with Flexi Quote…right now it won’t let you change or even remove the title. Which is why the original user posted up this question. I’m not entirely good with coding myself, I tried adding the CSS but nothing changed for me at all.

Go into Flexi Quote settings. Not the widget. Go under settings in the left sidebar of your dashboard, you’ll find flexi Quote. Click this. Check to see if you have a title in the first field. If you do, that’s what’s showing up.

Ahh that did it! Thank you for saving me more aggravation!

Thanks laughhearty for posting your fix – works like a treat – Cheers

What can’t I change the title in the widget? It’s driving me crazy.

I’m having the same problem. Any time I try and change anything in the widget it asks me if I’m sure I want to do this, and then I press save, but nothing saves. The title in both the widget AND the settings is blank, but Quote Rotator still shows up.

Also, it is not validating.
