Everything else will be inherited from your theme. Some templates have light & dark versions and other options. If you want to customize things like fonts, margins and borders, you will need custom CSS. ### Testimonial Submission Form This plugin provides one form with custom fields. Customize the form by adding or removing fields and changing properties like the order, label, and placeholder. Send custom notification emails to multiple admins. Submit the form via Ajax for use with plugins like [Popup Maker](https://wordpress.org/plugins/popup-maker/). ### Displaying Testimonials **Everything happens in a View**. Instead of learning multiple shortcodes with dozens of options, a View contains all the options in a simple, intuitive editor that no other testimonial plugin has. Create unlimited views. For example, one view for a form, another for a static grid, another for a slideshow, and so on. Display a view using a shortcode or the widget. A variety of templates are included that work well in most themes. For ultimate control and seamless integration, copy any template to your theme and customize it. The template function will add a view to your custome theme templates: ``` ``` ### Privacy and GDPR By default, this plugin: * does not store any user or visitor data, * does not send any data to remote servers, act as a service or embed content, * does not edit the comments form in any way. The plugin also prevents displaying email addresses in your testimonials on the front end. However, this plugin provides features that may involve private data. * If you use the testimonial submission form, the data collected on that form will be stored in your database. * If you enable the administrator notification email upon new testimonial submission, the data collected on your form, at your selection, may be included in that notification email. * If you enable comments on testimonials, the plugin will use your theme’s single post template and comment form. * If you embed third-party posts such as Twitter, YouTube and FaceBook in your testimonials, you will be agreeing to the Terms of Use of those third-party sites. ### 3rd party or external service disclaimer The plugin connects to our website through an API call (https://strongtestimonials/ wp-json/mt/v1/get-all-extensions) in order to request a list of available extensions. IT DOES NOT SEND ANY DATA NOR DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM THE REQUEST Our privacy policy can be found at this URL https://strongtestimonials.com/privacy- policy/ ## Screenshots * [[ * Slideshow * [[ * Default template * [[ * Default form * [[ * Admin list table * [[ * General settings * [[ * Form settings * [[ * Fields editor * [[ * View editor ## Blocks This plugin provides 1 block. * View ## Installation 1.

Those domains encompass the form fields, the form messages, the notification email, and the “Read more” link text in your views. They are updated automatically when any of those settings change. ### What are the shortcodes? [testimonial_view] – To display your testimonials as a list or a slideshow, or to display the form. The first step is to create a **view** which manages all the options in an easy-to-use (some call it fun!) editor. ``` [testimonial_view id=1] ``` [testimonial_count] – To display the number of testimonials you have. For example: ``` Read some of our [testimonial_count] testimonials! ``` [testimonial_average_rating] – To display the average rating of all your testimonials. Includes stars! ### Can I show more than one testimonial in the slider (i.e. a carousel)? Yes. you can show 1, 2 or 3 at a time and you can scroll 1, 2 or 3 at a time. ### Can I add testimonials from YouTube, Twitter, Instagram and Facebook? Yes. The plugin supports the [WordPress embed](https://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds) feature for inserting testimonials from [these sources](https://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds#Does_This_Work_With_Any_URL.3F). ### Can I change the fields on the form? Yes. There is a custom fields editor to add or remove fields, change field details, and drag-and-drop to reorder them. ### After the form has been submitted, can I redirect them to another page or display a custom message? Yes and yes. ### Can I set the status of the newly submitted testimonial? Yes, either pending or published. ### Can I reorder my testimonials by drag and drop? Yes. ### Can I change the fields that appear below the testimonial? Yes. In views, change these custom fields in a few clicks. ### Can I display a large version of the featured image in a popup? Yes. This requires a lightbox so if your theme does not include one, you will need a lightbox plugin. ### Will it automatically use my existing testimonials? No. If you already have testimonials in another plugin or theme, you will have to re-enter them. Why? Because every theme and plugin stores data differently. ### Where do I report security bugs found in this plugin? Please report security bugs found in the source code of the Strong Testimonials plugin through the [Patchstack Vulnerability Disclosure Program](https://patchstack.com/database/vdp/9e5fb49c-26b1-4725-8172-ce6b7ffc67f2).

What I don’t love is when I run an update it seems to break something, and will tech support is helpful, it can be slow for replies. Importing from Google – which is what I want seems to also have problems or is not consistency with the automatic imports. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/a5cb0a9df2af20e12246d181bb96ff3ccec5c6b219d5fe1835e5aacdbaf46c98? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great plugin and support](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-and-support-1900/)󠁿 [romodez](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kieranvyas/) 12. dets. 2025 Really nice plugin and there was excellent support to help me with some tweaking ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/beb8db05d52f2fffe8b11ea0b3b756b1476eecd312998a607ae4c9a36994913e? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Cool plugin!!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cool-plugin-623/)󠁿 [aquapluskiev](https://profiles.wordpress.org/aquapluskiev/) 18. nov. 2025 Cool plugin!! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/86916a29f9a3b2631bfcdef87dd9735fc86f4ab384885344861ca674c5b26866? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Good plugin, but support…](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/good-plugin-but-support-2/)󠁿 [Veselin](https://profiles.wordpress.org/vartdomen/) 12. okt 2025 2 replies The plugin works well with my sites, but I ran into an issue with the review slider displaying for the selected category, and the support response was zero… I found a similar request from another developer, and they replied that there would be no technical support for the free version… Of course, I understand everything, but that’s not how they do it. There are plenty of plugins, with both paid and free functionality, but their support helps the user… And forcing a purchase is a shady pattern, and I don’t want to deal with this solution in the future, not the free one, and especially not the paid version… because, in my opinion, this is not the right way to treat customers of this service… And I wouldn’t say this plugin is a great solution… ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d4ec82a6c6007683924d68ec6cf6cc2a453537b02885d1d97ed667df77a66009? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Highly Recommended](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/highly-recommended-744/)󠁿 [michaelquinn](https://profiles.wordpress.org/michaelquinn/) 17. sept 2025 Been using this on my site for a couple of years now – currently 300+ testimonials in 20+ categories. It’s great! Very easy to add new ones. Very configurable. The results load fast on my site. I tried many others and this has been a great choice.
