About Testimonial

From the official readme · v1.2.4

Description

Show visitors what your happy customers say – add unlimited testimonial sliders and carousels anywhere on your site, no code required.

Why B Testimonial?

Nothing convinces a new visitor faster than the words of a satisfied customer. B Testimonial lets you collect all your testimonials in one place and display them as beautiful, rotating sliders on any page, post, or widget area.

Everything is fully customizable – colors, font size, navigation, and slider controls – and you can choose from five different design templates. The slider is responsive, and you decide how many columns appear on each device, so your social proof looks great on desktops, tablets, and phones alike.

Prefer the block editor? A fully customizable B Testimonial Gutenberg block is included, alongside a powerful shortcode generator for classic workflows.

Free Features

  • Five Design Templates: Pick the testimonial slider style that matches your site.
  • Unlimited Testimonials: Publish as many testimonials and carousels as you want.
  • Fully Responsive: Set how many columns show on each device.
  • Embed Anywhere: Display testimonials on pages, posts, and widgets.
  • Slider Controls: Fine-tune navigation and slider settings.
  • Color & Typography Options: Change text colors and font sizes to match your brand.
  • Powerful Shortcode Generator: Configure everything visually, then copy one shortcode.
  • Gutenberg Block: A fully customizable B Testimonial block for the block editor.
  • Broad Browser Support: Works on all major browsers including Safari, Firefox, and Chrome.
