Hello guys,
i am thinking of using the latest Creative template for a site of mine. All is going well, except for a problem. I want to make the testimonial dynamic, that is to make various testimonials appear on the site(as in gavick.com).. How do i achieve this? Should i use a different module?
Please advise

Hi

You can use News Show Pro and adding testimonials as articles. Than just configure it to show content only where testimonial will be stored.

Hello teitbite,
thanks for your speedy response. I have tried using News Show Pro but i cannot find the right settings so that it looks like the one in Gavick homepage. Please guide me how to use the settings like Module mode and other required settings.
Thanks once again.

Hi

Use a standard module mode. The trick is to create a category with articles containing testimonials, than You need to select showing for example 10 pages with 1 row and one column in articles layout. At the bottom of this tab You need to disable all elements except of the text. That's all. With autoanimation set to ON it will be rotating itself.

UPDATE: its working with the quotes... Awesome..
Only thing left to do is, how do i add the horizontal line in and above the testimonial module(as in your site).. Can i use two class at a time, if yes how?
I am using the class <div class="gktestimonial"> and <cite> to show the quotes. But how can i add another class into it, like a <div class="gkblock-5"> so that there is boundary on the articles.

Thanks for your awesome support

Hi

You can add this lines with module class suffix. Just add to module for example " qlines" (space before class is important) and lines can be set with this code:

Code: Select all
.qlines {
border-top: 1px solid #ddd;
border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd;
}

Thats awesome..got two horizontal lines in top and bottom. Any idea why there is a lot of space below the content/testimonial(and above the bottom horizontal line)...

Thanks for your time mate

Hi

Ok I see it now. First of all please remove padding for article in NSP settings:

Code: Select all
0 20px 20px 0;


and additionaly You can remove a margin from paragraphs in this module with this code:

Code: Select all
.qlines p { margin: 0; }

Hi

Your mails are not reaching me. I've just checked spam and double checked all mails since the last week. Please use a contact form on my website. I have lots of problems with this gmail account, my website is using a different one so should be working this time.
