Frequently Asked Questions
Testimonial Fader is a complete Joomla testimonial solution with three parts that work together:
- Testimonial Fader Module – animated slider or static grid showcase for homepages and sidebars
- Ajax Form Module – standalone submission form you can place anywhere
- Testimonial Fader Component – full testimonials page with listing, pagination, and an built-in form
All three share the same database. Approve testimonials once in admin and display them anywhere on your site.
Testimonial Fader v8 is fully compatible with Joomla 4, Joomla 5, and Joomla 6.
It is built with modern Joomla standards for long-term reliability and easy updates.
Visitors can submit through the Ajax Form Module (embed in any module position) or the component page (dedicated menu item).
Both forms include Name, Email, and Testimonial fields, with optional Google reCAPTCHA (v2 or v3), instant validation, and Ajax submission so the page never reloads.
By default, new submissions are saved as pending and require administrator approval before they appear on the site.
You can optionally enable auto-publish on the form module if you prefer submissions to go live instantly.
Version 8 includes four ready-made layout templates:
- Card – modern card with quote icon and dot navigation
- Minimal – typography-focused, no card background
- Bubble – speech-bubble style with author below
- Classic – flat layout inspired by the original fader
Switch layouts from module settings with no template coding required.
Yes. The showcase module supports two display modes:
- Slider – one testimonial at a time with transitions, auto-play, swipe, and dot pager
- Grid – all testimonials in a responsive multi-column layout with no animation
Set separate column counts for desktop, tablet, and mobile in grid mode.
The showcase slider supports seven transition effects: Fade, Slide, Slide Up, Zoom, Flip, Blur, and Rotate.
You can also control transition speed, slide duration, auto-play, pause on hover, and swipe on touch devices.
Yes. Choose from 10 quote icon styles with adjustable size and color.
Control testimonial font size, weight, style, line height, and alignment. Show or hide author names with separate styling. Optional Google Fonts are supported in the showcase module.
Card background, border, radius, padding, and shadow presets let you match your brand.
Yes. Long quotes can be shortened with a Read more control in both the showcase module and the component list.
Options include a popup dialog (no page reload), a link to any URL, or showing the full text always. Text link and pill button styles are available with custom colors.
The component list supports Grid, Flex, and Masonry layouts with 1 to 4 responsive columns on desktop, plus separate settings for tablet and mobile.
You can show the form only, the list only, or both on one page. Form display options include fixed, toggle button, or modal popup.
Yes. Browse pages of testimonials without reloading the site. AJAX pagination can be enabled or disabled per menu item.
Pagination style (round or square), alignment, box styling, and colors are all customizable.
Both the Ajax Form Module and component form include multiple layers of protection:
- Google reCAPTCHA v2 (checkbox) or v3 (invisible)
- Honeypot field to catch bots
- Rate limiting to block rapid repeat submissions
- Duplicate check by email or email plus testimonial text
Yes. Override field labels and validation messages per module or menu item.
Full styling controls cover the form background, inputs, labels, submit button, focus colors, error and success messages, shadows, and spacing. An extra CSS field is available for advanced tweaks.
In the showcase module, sort published testimonials by manual admin order, ID (newest or oldest), author name (A-Z or Z-A), or random. Manual slides can play sequentially or shuffle.
On the component page, sort by ID, manual order, or random. Drag-and-drop ordering is available in the Joomla admin.
Yes. The slider, grid, forms, and component list adapt to desktops, tablets, and mobile devices. Swipe support is included for touch screens.
Language files are included for translation, and any front-end string can be overridden via Joomla Language Overrides.
Yes. The component works with Joomla SEF (search-engine-friendly) URLs.
Clean HTML output and lightweight front-end code help keep pages fast and indexable.
From Components > Testimonial Fader in Joomla admin, you can add, edit, publish, unpublish, delete, and reorder testimonials.
Search and filter the list, review submitter name and email, and configure global options for reCAPTCHA, admin email notifications, default form text, and permissions.
You have full flexibility:
- Any module position – showcase slider/grid or standalone Ajax form
- Dedicated menu page – full archive with form and pagination
- Curated highlights – enter slides manually in the module without using the database
Mix and match to fit your site structure.
