[Plugin: WP-Testimonials] [WP-Testimonial] – Shortcode for Random Testimonial

Hi,

I used the WP-Testimonial Plug-In but I needed the random testimonial not in a Widget but as a Shortcode to place on my Homepage.

So I finally managed to add this function (see code below), so it would be great if it was added to the next release so I can update it without ruining my efforts 🙂

Thank you!!

/* show random testimonial(s) in SHORTCODE "[Testimonial-Random]" */
function sfstst_onerandomTwo() {
	global $wpdb;
	$table_name = $wpdb->prefix . "testimonials";
	if (get_option('sfs_setlimit') == '') {
		$sfs_setlimit = 1;
	} else {
		$sfs_setlimit = get_option('sfs_setlimit');
	}
	$randomT = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT testid, clientname, company, homepage, text_short FROM $table_name WHERE text_short !='' order by RAND() LIMIT $sfs_setlimit");

	$retvaloTwo .= '<div id="sfstest-sidebar">';

	foreach ($randomT as $randomT2) {

			$retvaloTwo .= '<blockquote>';
			$retvaloTwo .= '<p>';
			$retvaloTwo .= nl2br(stripslashes($randomT2->text_short));
			$retvaloTwo .= '</p>';

			$retvaloTwo .= '<p><cite>';
			if ($randomT2->company != '') {
			$retvaloTwo .= stripslashes($randomT2->clientname).'<br />';
				if ($randomT2->homepage != '') {
					$retvaloTwo .= '<a href="'.$randomT2->homepage.'" class="cite-link">'.stripslashes($randomT2->company).'</a>';
				} else {
					$retvaloTwo .= stripslashes($randomT2->company);
				}

			} else {
				$retvaloTwo .= stripslashes($randomT2->clientname).'';
			}
			$retvaloTwo .= '</cite></p>';
			$retvaloTwo .= '</blockquote>';

		} // end loop
			$sfs_showlink = get_option('sfs_showlink');
			$sfs_linktext = get_option('sfs_linktext');
			$sfs_linkurl = get_option('sfs_linkurl');

				if (($sfs_showlink == 'yes') && ($sfs_linkurl !='')) {
					if ($sfs_linktext == '') { $sfs_linkdisplay = 'Read More'; } else { $sfs_linkdisplay = $sfs_linktext; }
					$retvaloTwo .= '<div class="sfststreadmore"><a href="'.$sfs_linkurl.'">'.$sfs_linkdisplay.'</a></div>';
				}
	$retvaloTwo .= '</div>';
return $retvaloTwo;
}
