== Description ==

Have you tried all the other testimonial plugins for Wordpress?  Do they all suck?  With our plugin you can easily manage the testimonials for your website. You can configure the prefix, suffix, and even the number of testimonials displayed on your Wordpress site. After you have our plugin configured, all you have to do is place our tag (`<?php collision_testimonials(); ?>`) where you want your testimonials to be displayed in your template. (E.g. sidebar.php, footer.php, or even a custom template!)

Some Of Our Features:<br />
 - Manage your sites testimonials. (Add, Edit, and Delete!  Yep, full CURD!)<br />
 - Highly configurable via our GUI interface.<br />
 - Set number of testimonials to display.<br />
 - Configure the testimonial prefix and sufix.<br />
 - Collect the following information for each testimonial: Name, Testimonial, Website, and Status.<br />
 - Set status of testimonial to "Public", "Hidden", and even "Pending Approval".  This allows you to hide a testimonial rather then deleting the testimonial from the database entirely.<br />
 
Features Coming Soon:<br />
 - Allow visitors to submit testimonials through a web form.<br />
 - Display all public testimonials on a testimonials page, using our special testimonials page tag. (&lt;!-- collision_testimonials_page --&gt;)<br />
