<p>To add a quote, go to Quotes->Add New. Enter the citation (source or author) for the quote and the quote itself. You can use HTML in both the citation and the quote. For styling purposes, the post format defaults to “Quote.”</p>
<p>To add the widget to a sidebar, go to Appearance->Widgets and drag the Quote widget to the sidebar. Set the “Title” to the text you want to be displayed above the random quote in the sidebar.</p>
<p>The HTML displayed by the widget looks like this:</p>
<pre><code><div class="quote">
    “the_quote”
</div>
<div class="citation">
    &mdash;the_citation
</div>
<div class="all-quotes">
    [<a href="quote_archive_url">View All</a>]
</div>
</code></pre>

shortcode or by using a sidebar widget. The quotes include user-entered quotes, and can optionally include<br />
excerpts from a user-chosen category and can also optionally include links from a user-chosen links category<br />
There also is an option for including the lyrics from “Hello Dolly”. The plugin can be used for random<br />
