Description

Create a list of quotes to be displayed in random order or a specific quote one at time using custom template tags or shortcodes. Now the quotes can be listed on a page or post using a shortcode.

Installation

Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/randomquotr directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ page in WordPress
Use the Settings->RandomQuotr page add quotes in the textarea on the left-hand side. Each quote needs to be on a new line. They are split with carriage returns (line breaks).
Use the following hooks to display the quotes:

Get a random quote
* rdqr_random_quote(); – this will display the text automatically.
* $quote = rdqr_get_random_quote(); – this stores the text within a variable.

* rdqr_target_quote(3); – this will display the third quote in the list.
* $quote = rdqr_get_target_quote(); – this stores the text within a variable.
