Funcionou perfeitamente, só adicionei dois testimonials por enquanto. Poderia ser melhor se houvesse também a opção de mostrar como grade ou como lista, mas para quem quer apenas o slider é perfeito.

Graham August 18, 2020

I was looking for a testimonial plugin that enabled customers to add their own. While there are a few that do, not at $15 for a one-time fee. I installed the free version, which does give you that function, unlike others. Everything worked fine. So I bought the pro version straightaway, to get the extra customizations. A bit of fiddling with CSS in my child theme got things looking exactly how I wanted it. I see the plugin has been regularly updated, but not many have used it recently or left reviews. These sort of plugins that are tucked away and hard to find are worth their weight in gold. I hope the developer maintains support for a great little plugin.

Easy to setup and install and have used this on many sites however having faced issues with upgrading to the PRO version, the author took time out of his day to help resolve the issues I was facing and I could not ask for a better plugin or author. 100% Recommend! Thanks again!
