So ...

You need to go to Testimonials -> Add Rotator to setup the carousel that will display the rotating testimonials on your website:

This is where you can define how your testimonials carousel to behave.

You can choose animation, duration for each testimonial, show/hide items, and more.

After that you need to enter the company or product that these testimonials are associated with. This information will not be displayed but will be used to add rich snippets meta data for search engines.

And lastly, you can select a theme for your carousel. By default, the plugin comes with two themes to choose from and you can purchase additional themes from the plugin author.

Once you are finished, just click the "Publish" button to save your changes.

And now that you've created the carousel, you can add some testimonials. That's the next step ...

I often wondered how that was done, thank you so much for another great training Zed :)
BTW could this be used for comments too?

What do you mean regarding the comments?

It was just a thought, I was wondering if comments could be rotated instead of being underneath, but I guess its not such a great idea !

The basic idea is to have the most recent comment at the end of the list (top or bottom) ... So rotating the comments is maybe not a really good idea ...

Yes, I realise it is not the best idea, but thank you so much for bothering to answer a rather silly thought!!!!

Thank you for sharing.

How many plugins can we install on our website?

It is said that we need to keep them under 5 but this may not be easy! It seems that we will need to install more.

I run about 9 myself. I don’t know if there’s an actual limit. Just try to be mindful that each one will use more resources and, depending on what they do, delay your page loads while they process the info.

Regarding your question ... Usually the fewer the better ... On the other hand a very fast and very boring website isn't a great business tool ...

I have more than 30 plugins on my blog and is OK ... The point: the quality of the plugins is what really matters not the quantity.

Well-coded, lightweight plugins won't slow down your site ... Especially, if you have an efficient overall speed optimization strategy in place.
