    I am presently using the Strong Testimonials plugin, great plugin you have there.

    I am using this code below but the read more link when clicked on does not move to the next page.

    I will also like the testimonials to display in the “newest” order and not “randon” order.

    [strong count=”10″ random title thumbnail]
    [client]
    [field name=”client_name” class=”name”]
    [field name=”company_name” url=”company_website” class=”company” new_tab]
    [/client]
    [/strong]
    [strong read_more page=”all-testimonials” class=”strong-more”]Read more testimonials[/strong]

    waiting for your response.
    Thank you.

    Thanks, I’m glad you like the plugin.

    The page attribute needs to refer to another page by ID or slug. Do you have a page with a slug of “all-testimonials”?

    Change random to newest.

    Perhaps I misunderstood. When you say “next page” do you mean pagination like this example?

    If so, then you need to add per_page.

    Thanks Chris,
    I already have the testimonies added to all testimonial in dashboard, and on my testimonial page I have this code below which displays fine but when you click on read more so as to open the next page, it does not open at all but same page is displayed, I hope you understand better now, see the shortcode:

    [strong count=”10″ random title thumbnail]
    [client]
    [field name=”client_name” class=”name”]
    [field name=”company_name” url=”company_website” class=”company” new_tab]
    [/client]
    [/strong]
    [strong read_more page=”all-testimonials” class=”strong-more”]Read more testimonials[/strong]

    Which of these two pages demonstrates what you expect to happen when you click “read more”?

    1. https://demos.wpmission.com/strong-testimonials/examples/all-pagination/

    2. https://demos.wpmission.com/strong-testimonials/examples/3-random-excerpts/

    This one does: 1. https://demos.wpmission.com/strong-testimonials/examples/all-pagination/

    but the shortcode you have in your example, I mean the one I used is not the same as the demo 1 code.

    When I click read more, I expect the next page to open.

    thanks

    [strong read_more] means “take me to another page of testimonials” (like demo 2) not “show me the next 5 testimonials in this group of 10”.

    If you want pagination like in demo 1 then you don’t need a [strong read_more], you need something like [strong count="10" per_page="5"].

    I’m sorry if this is difficult. I packed a lot of options into a single shortcode. I am working on making it easier without losing any features.

    Okay, should it be something like this?

    [strong count=”10″ random title thumbnail]
    [client]
    [field name=”client_name” class=”name”]
    [field name=”company_name” url=”company_website” class=”company” new_tab]
    [/client]
    [/strong]
    [strong count=”10″ per_page=”10″].

    I want 10 testimonies per page.

    Please let me know if this is the right shortcode to use.

    Plugin Contributor Chris Dillon

    (@cdillon27)

    You only need one [strong]. Try this:

    [strong title thumbnail newest per_page="10"]
    [client]
    [field name="client_name" class="name"]
    [field name="company_name" url="company_website" class="company" new_tab]
    [/client]
    [/strong]

    Thank you so much, it works.

    I must confess that I have never had this kind of speedy response before ever since I started using wordpress support forum, you are simply exceptional.

    I was wondering if I can change the content color and heading color, any help on that?

    Thanks again

    Plugin Contributor Chris Dillon

    (@cdillon27)

    Thanks and you’re welcome. I’m glad we worked it out.

    Changing the colors will require CSS. Are you using a custom theme or a child theme? Does your theme have a custom CSS function? Or do you use a plugin like Simple Custom CSS? If not, are you willing to?

    (@bennn)

    Yes I know this will require css, I am using jetpack.

    Plugin Contributor Chris Dillon

    (@cdillon27)

    Here’s an example for the shortcode:

    .testimonial .heading {
      color: #333;
    }
    .testimonial .content {
      color: #333;
    }
    .testimonial .client {
      color: #333;
    }

    You can look at wpmtst.css in the plugin’s /css folder for more elements.

    The widget is similar:

    .testimonial-widget h5 {
      color: #333;
    }
    .testimonial-widget .content {
      color: #333;
    }
    .testimonial-widget .client {
      color: #333;
    }

    That stylesheet is wpmtst-widget.css.

    I have used the colors I wanted and its so beautiful.

    Thank you so much for your time. You are simply the best, if you have other plugins I will like to look at them.
    Your support is great, 5+ stars.

    Thanks again.
