This plugin displays a random quotation upon page load pulled from a simple .csv file. You can provide any .csv file you like it should be of the format: source, “Quotation”
There are token css classes/ids to allow you to style the quotations however you like. The HTML outputed looks like this:
<h4>Dante Alighieri:</h4>
<blockquote>There is no greater sorrow than thinking back upon a happy time in misery.</blockquote>
You just need to add a #quotationSource and a #randomQuotation CSS rules or just let the chips fall where they may.
This is my first WordPress plugin it isn’t terribly clever. I eventually looked at the original plugin, hello.php and combined with my experience writing mashups just cranked it out.
