 * Hello, is there a code that I can use to insert the testimonials into my footer?
   I don’t have a widget in the footer and would rather be able to just import php
   code. Thanks for your help!

 * I’m not sure why you would rather use php code over a widget but if you want 
   to do that just use do_shortcode(‘[iq-testimonials-page id=’1′]’)
 * You will lose the ability to dynamically rotate as that is only a widget function.

 * is there a way to get this plugin integrated with akismet? I had the submission
   form up for 10 minutes and already got 5 spam submissions

 * I have no plans at this time to integrate with akismet but will likely add captcha
   sooner than later.
 * For the time being I would just set all fields to required

 * Like the original poster I would like to add this straight to the PHP… and:
 * `<?php echo do_shortcode("[iq-testimonials-page id='1']") ?>`
 * works very well.
 * How would I make this randomly select a quote?
 * Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 * Is captcha still a possibility? The spam with this plugin is getting quite severe.

 * I second the captcha request. SPAM is getting very bad.
