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.

After adding quotes when using rdqr_target_quote(0) why is nothing displayed?

The list starts at 1 not 0.

When using rdqr_target_quote and rdqr_get_target_quote why are they not doing anything?

Make sure that you are passing in a valid value. If you are passing in an invalid number (below 1, above the number of quotes), a non-number (“forty”), or there are no quotes to get, all of the functions will return null.

Can a shortcode be used to display a random quote?

Yes, use [rdqr_randomquote] in a page or post.

Can a shortcode be used to display a specific quote?

Yes, use [rdqr_targetquote singlequote=”3″] to display the third quote. Change the number 3 to the quote that you want displayed.

Can a shortcode be used to display a list of all quotes in a page or post?

Yes, use [rdqrallqts] in a page or post.

Can shortcodes be used in theme files?

Yes, to display a random quote place in your theme template. Display a specific quote by placing in your theme template. Change the number 3 to the quote that you want displayed.

Can shortcodes be used in widgets?

Yes, the shortcodes can be used in widgets.
