Create beautiful quotation collections and collect moderated testimonials with accessible layouts, media, search and sharing.

== Description ==

Loreainsworth Quotes & Testimonials Studio is a complete free plugin for presenting meaningful words and responsibly moderated experiences.

[Visit the plugin website](https://qt.errolwilliams.org/).

Create as many quotation posts as you need. Display them with responsive cards, four coordinated colour styles, essential typography and layout controls, images, audio, video, search, topic filtering, sorting, pagination, copying and sharing.

The testimonial tools let administrators publish approved testimonials and provide a simple public submission form. Submissions require consent, remain private until reviewed and arrive with Pending Review status.

The plugin uses standard WordPress posts, excerpts, featured images, taxonomies, settings and shortcodes. It does not require an external account or subscription.

Free shortcodes:

* `[loreainsworth_quotes]` displays the quotation collection.
* `[loreainsworth_testimonials]` displays approved testimonials.
* `[loreainsworth_experience_form]` displays the moderated testimonial form.

== External services ==

The SDK presents its connection/permissions screen before optional usage tracking is enabled. You can skip connecting and keep using the Free quotation and testimonial features.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= How do I place an author photo at the bottom right? =

Edit the quotation post. In Loreainsworth Studio: media and card style, choose Author portrait (bottom right) and update the post. That photo is excluded from the large card media, even if it is also the featured image. A different card image can still be displayed.

= How do I enable View quote? =

Go to Settings > Loreainsworth Studio > Visitor tools, enable Show View quote, and save. It opens a full quotation dialog. Without dialog support, it links to the quotation post.


= Is the Free edition time-limited? =

No. The Free edition has no expiry date and supports unlimited manually created quotation posts and testimonials.

= What happens to public testimonial submissions? =

They are stored as Pending Review. Nothing appears publicly until an administrator checks and publishes it.

= Can I move to Pro without losing content? =

Yes. Deactivate Free before activating Pro. Both editions use compatible WordPress content types and settings, so quotation posts, testimonials and compatible design choices remain stored.

= What does Pro add? =

Pro adds a quotation library, personal library management, Scripture selections, advanced testimonial experiences, twelve design styles, expanded motion, daily quotations, image downloads, backups and specialist management tools.
