About Hola Simpsons
From the official readme · v1.4.1Description
‘Hola Simpsons’ is a plugin that show quotes from ‘Los Simpsons’ in your admin area, in spanish. For each refresh, you will find at the top of the admin-area a quote from any character in the series.
Now with iconic quotes from the original English, Spain (es_ES), Brazilian Portuguese (pt_BR) and Italian (it_IT) dubs of the show, in addition to the original Latin American Spanish dub. The plugin auto-selects the right set based on the user’s WordPress locale (e.g. en_GB → English, pt_PT → Brazilian Portuguese, es_AR/es_MX → LATAM Spanish). Languages without a curated set fall back to LATAM Spanish.

- Upload the ‘Hola Simpsons’ folder into your ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory
- Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
That’s it! ‘Hola Simpsons’ will appear with quotes in your admin area.
Frequently asked questions
Does this plugin host information in the local WordPress database?
No. Currently the plugin does not host information in the database. We have plans that do so in future versions.
Can I add new quotes or remove the ones I don’t like?
No. Currently these actions cannot be performed. We have plans that you can customize quotes in future versions.
In which languages will the quotes be displayed?
The plugin auto-selects the quote set based on your WordPress user locale. Currently supported sets: Latin American Spanish (default and fallback), European Spanish (es_ES), Brazilian Portuguese (pt_BR), Italian (it_IT) and original English (en_US). Variants like en_GB or pt_PT fall back to en_US and pt_BR respectively. Locales with no curated set fall back to LATAM Spanish.
Does this plugin connect to any external web service?
Not right now. We have plans to do it in future versions, to obtain updated quotes without the need for changes in the code.
I love it, how can I show my appreciation?
If you have been impressed with this plugin and would like to somehow show some appreciation, rather than send a donation my way, please donate to your charity of choice. I will never ask for any form of reward or compensation. Helping others achieve their goals is satisfying for me 🙂
