Title: Imperfect Quotes Author: Matt Parrott Published: ఆగస్ట్ 16, 2012 Last modified: ఆగస్ట్ 17, 2012 --- Search plugins This plugin **hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress**. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/imperfect-quotes.svg) # Imperfect Quotes By [Matt Parrott](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mattparrott/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/imperfect-quotes.0.9.3.zip) * [Details](https://te.wordpress.org/plugins/imperfect-quotes/#description) * [Reviews](https://te.wordpress.org/plugins/imperfect-quotes/#reviews) * [Installation](https://te.wordpress.org/plugins/imperfect-quotes/#installation) * [Development](https://te.wordpress.org/plugins/imperfect-quotes/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/imperfect-quotes/) ## Description Use the intuitive and powerful rich text interface to add and edit quotes, using the ‘featured image’ functionality to add a thumbnail image. Then, use either the supplied widget, a simple shortcode, or a straightforward function in your theme to add either a specific quote or a random quote to your site. This plugin is a fork of Perfect Quotes. I forked it because it’s an excellent plugin. In some ways, it’s more powerful and flexible than this one. I highly recommend it if this plugin is too simple for you and you don’t need either the thumbnail feature or the rich text editing option. #### Features * Widget based to easily place your quotes where you like. * A custom shortcode is included if you want to place your quotes within a post or a page. * Based on Custom Post types with its own admin menu. #### Support languages * PHP * CSS * jQuery/javascript ## Screenshots * [[ * How the quote appears on a website * [[ * Manage the quotes on the admin page * [[ * Add a thumbnail to your quote ## Installation 1. Upload plugin folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory. 2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” menu in WordPress. 3. Go to the Imperfect Quotes menu and select Add new. 4. Type in the author. 5. Type in the quote. 6. Add a `Featured Image` to the post (don’t actually insert the image, though!) It will look something like this: The trouble with quotes on the internet is that it’s difficult to discern whether or not they are genuine. – Abraham Lincoln [lincoln.jpg] #### Widget 1. Include the widget by going to Appearance > Widgets. 2. Drag the Imperfect Quotes widget to the area of your choice. 3. Give your widget a custom title if you wish. #### Shortcode From any page or post, you can add shortcode to display all your quotes. From the Imperfect Quotes home area, there is a column called Shortcode. Find the particular quote you want and copy the corresponding shortcode. It looks something like [imperfect_quotes id=”1″]. Paste this into your post or onto a page and your quote will magically appear! #### For more help For more help please visit http://www.swarmstrategies.com/imperfect-quotes ## FAQ Does your plugin have a feature to randomly select quotes? Unless you specify the quote by its id, it’ll be randomly selected. Why am I seeing two pictures of Abraham Lincoln on my page? That’s because you’re not only associating the quote with a featured image, you’re adding the image to the quote itself. If you click ‘Use as Featured Image’ at the bottom of the image properties dialog, then ‘X’ out of the dialog, you’ll have a featured image without inserting it into the quote. While this is a bit counter-intuitive, it gives you the power to insert images and other rich content into quotes when you actually want to do that. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Imperfect Quotes” is open source software.
