Real Testimonials – Testimonial Slider, Collect Customer Reviews and Video Testimonials

Great explainer video. Easy to use and lots of customisations. Recommended.

Nice testimonials plugin


Downloaded the plugin and thought it would be easy to use.  First, they only allow json to be uploaded, yet no wordpress plugin exports in json. So if you have any testimonials like I do 5000+ it would take forever to insert by hand.Second, I am using the Divi theme and the slider does not show at all on the home page it's off the page to the left and they are stacked one on top of the other, yet no console error shows at all.  Wasted 2 hours trying to get this garbage working. Do not recommend.
