 * Can we use this thread for feature requests so they can all be viewed in one 
   place.
 * * short codes (a few people have asked for this)
    * optional image for each testimonial(
   perhaps the logo of the company that provided the testimonial)

 * The plugin requires a title, if left blank “Testimonials” is displayed above 
   the testimonials. It would be good to allow that field to be blank and top justify
   for alignment without text in the title. It’s rather obvious that they are testimonials
   and doesn’t need to be identified.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi
 * Try inserting one space as the title.

 * I did that. The problem is that the top of the testimonial text is not at the
   top of the widget area.

 * Hi I would like to have an optional URL field with a couple of checkboxes.
    The
   URL field will not be visible, but will be the link that will like either the
   entire quote, or just the author (or both, hence the chekboxes).
 * This way it is much easier (no more HTML href-ing etc) to link the author and/
   or quote to an URL, either as a source or to read more.
 * Another good option would be to have the WP editor work when adding a quote, 
   for easy formatting.
    Cheers

 * ps: I just noticed that testimonials are not exported by the wordpress exporter(
   other custom fields _are_ exported).
 * This alone makes that I cannot use your plugin as I need to test it one one server
   before exporting it and importing it on another.

 * [@befound](https://wordpress.org/support/users/befound/), I’ll add an option 
   for no title.
    [@bike](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bike/), thanks for
   your comments. I’ll see what I can do.

 * Hi, great plugin so far. A few functional wishes:
 * 1. assign a category to testimonials
    2. short-code to display testimonials in
   posts/pages based on individual testimonials, all testimonials or by category
   3. place 2 separate (optional) fields below author for company and role so the
   testimonial could show <author> <role> <company> <source> 4. add an image to 
   the testimonial.
 * Then this would be peeeeeeerfect testimonial plugin! 😉

 * i’d like to echo the request for a shortcode to display all testimonials in a
   nice format on a page. In most cases, we need to create a testimonial page as
   well as using the widget on the front page.
 * I think Wibbsy summarized it pretty well, thanks, and any updates on future development
   will be appreciated.

 * wibbsy, t0mmyZ:
 * 1. Are you saying you’d like category assignment to replace current tagging?
 * 2. Can you please provide a sample output of HTML for the display testimonials
   short-code?
 * 3. I’m hesitant to add more fields, unless a few other folks speak up for them.
   The current fields accept HTML and therefore, you can already abuse Testimonials
   to have the role and company fields.
 * 4. You can use HTML in the testimonial to show an image already. Do you want 
   to relate media attachments to testimonials? If so, then what kind of formatting
   is wanted?
 * Alternately, there’s [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/quotes-collection/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/quotes-collection/).

 * > 1. Are you saying you’d like category assignment to replace current tagging?
 * Yes please so that I can structure the testimonials perhaps based on industry
   or service or client subsidiary etc….
 * > 2. Can you please provide a sample output of HTML for the display testimonials
   > short-code?
 * Simply so I can embed quotes and testimonials in different pages/post and reference
   as above.
 * > 3. I’m hesitant to add more fields, unless a few other folks speak up for them.

 * Understand but those are the only other fields I’d like as 9 times out of 10 
   the testimonial will be linked with a person and thus it would be better to see
   their job role for others to decide has strong that quote is. Just makes it easier
   to arrange rather then having independent html sections scattered around.
 * > 4. You can use HTML in the testimonial to show an image already. Do you want

 * Again, simply for ease so I don;t have to reference the separate html and can
   simply link the image in short-code. Formatting would be width/height/lightbox/
   alt text.

 * Hi,
    a short-code to display the testimonials in a page or post would be really
   helpful! IS this already available or oany change this will be out soon?

 * Sorry, I’ve been busy with changes to TYPO3 Importer and the Flickr Shortcode
   Importer. I should be getting around to these this month.
 * If you’re in a hurry, you might try out [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/quotes-collection/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/quotes-collection/).
   They’ve done a nice job and is what this plugin was originally based upon.

 * Please check out 0.2.4 release. It contains shortcode for displaying testimonials
   by id, tags and other options.
 * Fuller shortcode options listed on [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/testimonials-widget/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/testimonials-widget/).

 * Bike,
 * Any idea on how to include the testimonials in the WP export? Do you know another
   plugin that is included for me to look at?
