Quotes

The quotes module allows users to maintain a list of quotations that they find notable, humorous, famous, infamous, or otherwise worthy of sharing with website visitors. Quotes are stored as nodes, and users with the appropriate permissions can maintain their own list of quotes much like maintaining their own blog. One very interesting use of the Quotes module is to show testimonials about a product or service.

Administrators can define one or more quote blocks to display either the latest quote or a random quote matching certain criteria. The quotes displayed in each block can be filtered by role, user, node, or category.

Support for Views is included.

Important Note For Drupal 6 Users

A change to the menu system means this module requires 6.2 or higher. It will not work correctly on 6.0 or 6.1.

Migrating from 5.x version

  • The 6.x version is based upon the 5.x-1.2 version, so all changes before that release are incorporated. To upgrade from pre-5-x-1.2 versions of the module, you will need the 6.x-1.x-alpha2 version or higher.
  • Due to changes in the core menu system, if you request quotes for a user that does not exist (quotes/99), you will get a "Page Not Found."
  • If you request quotes for a user that has no quotes, you will get a line that says "No quotes found."
  • There is no longer a separate "Import" tab on creating quotes. Instead there is a set of radio buttons if one has permission to import. This will change in a future version.

G&G Services uses it for the Testimonials, including the random block on the bottom of the home page.

Translation

I run the translation extractor when I update the module, so if someone wants to provide translations, the template is available. Please open a feature request with the translation (.po) module attached.

Version Status

With the increasing adoption of Drupal 6 and the maturing of D7, we feel the time has come to place our 5.x version into “maintenance only” mode. From now until we release a 7.x version there will be no new development on the 5.x version; we will, however, provide a “best effort” to fix bugs.

Currently, the HEAD branch is tracking 7.x.

Development version status

The development versions (-dev) are where the newest stuff is, including any bug fixes and new features. We try to make sure it is tested before we commit anything, but occasionally a bug will get by us. Your help on testing this code is greatly appreciated. The translation templates may not always be up-to-date in the -dev releases.
