FAQ
-
Does Quote of the Day show the same quote to everyone?
-
Yes. Faevika Quotes stores one active daily quote for the current daily period. The period changes at the time configured in Faevika Quotes settings and uses the WordPress site timezone.
-
Does this work with page caching?
-
Quotes are requested through a lightweight public WordPress REST endpoint after the page loads. This allows the page HTML itself to remain cached while dynamic quote modes continue to work.
-
Can I migrate from Quotes Collection?
-
Yes, if the old
{prefix}quotescollectiondatabase table still exists. Open Faevika Quotes > Import / Export and use the Quotes Collection importer. Do not uninstall/delete the old Quotes Collection plugin before migration if its uninstall process would remove the table. -
What happens to my quotes if I delete Faevika Quotes?
-
By default the plugin leaves its data in the database, making a later reinstall possible. You can opt in to permanent data deletion in Faevika Quotes > Settings > Advanced before uninstalling.
-
Does the plugin support multilingual quotes?
-
Language-specific quote filtering is planned for a later version. Faevika Quotes currently stores and displays one shared quotes collection.
