rotating testimonials
 

I would like to have a block were testimonials are rotated when a customer gets onto my home page or views other pages in my site. Basically when a customer would click on a link to go to a new page a random testimonial would show up. Is there a mod out for this already? I saw it on an x-cart site but the owner wouldn't respond to my question.
Thanks

I believe bcsengineering.com has a testimonials manager. Moving to Third Party Add-Ons.

balinor,

have you used this mod? Is it difficult to install?

thanks.

Been a LONG time...but from what I remember it was pretty easy. You can always order their installation services which are quite inexpensive.

Bought the module, BCSEngineering installed it, works great. I highly recommend it if you want testimonials on your site!

Thanks again, Balinor!

I have this mod installed for over 1 year and started getting hackers hijacking the form.

Carrie from BCSE promised a captcha feature for this mode since late last year but didn't get around to it yet.

So, I decided to disable the mod for unregistered users.

Just modify the skin1/customer/main/testimonials.tpl to:


and add the {/if} behind the </table> tag

Works for me...

is there any option to have the testimonials rotating on the side box?

Re: rotating testimonials
 

It will rotate upon either page refresh or if you change pages. If you want it to sit there and refresh then some customizations would be needed. Contact us if you want a quote.

Thanks,

i went to buy the testimonials mod (for v4.2.1) but i saw next to v4.2 this "available arround4-6".. What is that mean? Does it work for v4.2.1?

Re: rotating testimonials
 

Yes! Sorry we apparently forgot to update the website. :D

Thanks

I purchased PhilJ's mod as the demo looked really nice, and it indeed is nice on my website. You have full admin control over everything.

Install instructions were detailed and easy to follow step by step. No problems!

Probley the best mod i've purchased so far as i believe it gives my customers trust. :D
