Testimonial Slider provides a slide display of your client/customer testimonials. Why do I need to display testimonials? Well, they add a little credibility to your work and the visitor knows that you have had clients/customers who have liked your work.
In general a testimonial contains 2 things:
- The testimonial itself
- Author of the testimonial (your client/customer)
Usually, what we do is create a block for these testimonials and then theme it accordingly. This module is no different, with an added flavor of adding a slide effect to these testimonials and thereby giving a LIVE feed look. The module uses the jquery plugin cycle (http://archive.plugins.jquery.com/project/cycle). You can see a list of demos for the effects available with the cycle plugin at http://malsup.com/jquery/cycle/
Module Usage instructions:
- Create a block with custom HTML code
- The html code should be in the following pattern:
<div id="testimonial-slider">
<blockquote><p>Testimonial 1... <cite>Author 1.. </cite></p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>Testimonial 2... <cite>Author 2.. </cite></p></blockquote>
...
...
</div> - Save the block
- Enable the block in any region
The slider takes the width available to the region in which the block is enabled and automatically adjusts height based on the height of the testimonial.
