Multiple instances/Prevent same testimonial to appear again

    Hi there,

    I really love the plug in so far.
    Worked “out of the box”, many great features!

    However, if I use multiple instances on a page/site I did not find a way to prevent one quote to appear more than once.
    I know I could use categories and then run multiple instances of the plugin but with different categories. Thing is, I want just one pool of quotes and to display various quotes across the site.

    Does each testimonial have an ID i can access and store in an array which would then be used to exclude testimonials??

    Thanks for any help,
    peek

    oh sh*t, no it doesn’t.
    i guess i had random luck….

    see here: http://aq295.w4yserver.at/wp/presse/

    i’m invoking the testimonials in an sidebar php file which gets included multiple times

    the code:

    <?php
$args                       = array(
	'unique'					=>'true',
	'limit'						=> 1,
	'no_cache'	=> 'true',
	'hide_title' => 'true'

);
?>

<div id="presse-<?php echo $c ?>" class="sidebar-teaser sidebar-presse fourcol left last clearfix sidebar-<?php echo $extra_class ?>" role="complementary">
	<ul>
		<hr>
		<?php echo testimonialswidget_widget($args); ?>
		<hr>
		<?php echo testimonialswidget_widget($args); ?>
		<hr>
		<?php echo testimonialswidget_widget($args); ?>
	</ul>
</div>

    Remove no_cache.

    then each sidebar shows the same testimonials…

    1. Are you using Testimonials Widget Premium? That’s required for unique to work.

    2. Have you cleared the cache? See bottom of Premium tab of Testimonials > Settings screen.
