7 Quote Plugins for Wordpress

by Franklin Bishop on April 14, 2009

These are some cool quote plugins that I found for Wordpress. I have tried all of them out and they seem to be working correctly with the newest Wordpress and some old versions. Whether it is adding a random quote to your blog or adding someone else’s custom CSS to anything you quote on your blog. These plugins full workout nicely if you would like to do those two things with quotes.

Women Quotes – This plugin adds a sidebar widget that displays randomly women’s quotes about womanhood and “being women”.

Stray Random Quotes – Stray Random Quotes helps you collect and display random quotes everywhere on your blog. The plugin is so flexible that it can be used to display random words of all sorts: taglines, “leave a response” messages, footer or header sections etc.

Quote This – Quote This is yet another quote plugin. It has been a script I’ve used on my personal blog for a few years that I figured I’d share with the rest of the WordPress community.

Flexi Quote Rotator – Based on Luke Howell’s quote rotator plugin, the flexi quote rotator plugin allows you to add the quotations to your site using a shortcode or php snippet in template instead of only as a widget. Also adds a settings panel to the admin and provides additional flexibility with styling.

Quote of the Day from TooManyQuotes.com – This Wordpress widget places a Quote of the Day from TooManyQuotes.com onto your website. By default it will display an Inspirational quote, but you can visit TooManyQuotes.com to get the JavaScript code for a Quote of the Day from any category, author, actor, movie, TV show, book, video game or custom list.

Quotes Collection – Quotes Collection plugin with Ajax powered Random Quote sidebar widget helps you collect, manage and display your favourite quotations on your WordPress blog.

Ozh’ Random Words – Want a random quote plugin ? Want to change the old boring comment pages full of “Joe said” with something random like “Joe thought”, “Joe wrote” and “Joe replied” ?

If those were not any of the plugins you are looking for then Wordpress has a lot of them. You also can add your own CSS to your quotes. I would be willing to help you but many of these plugins can do that for you.

How do you know when someone wrote an awesome post? When you come back to it two days in a row. I’ve used a quote on almost every one of my posts since the beginning, but have never used a plugin. It’s definitely time to start.
