For Zen Cart versions 1.3.X.

The Testimonials module allows users & store admins (or admins exclusively) to add testimonials to Zen Cart. This version will optionally publish a link back to the author's site from both the testimonials page, and randomly from the sidebox, offering a potentially high value incentive for authors by way of a link exchange arrangement.

• NEW! Migration option for legacy testimonials modules.
• NEW! Ability to nominate topical product & restrict testimonials sidebox view to relevant category or product.
• NEW! Now has option to obfuscate link address to optionally remove search index "vote" for testimonial author's site.
• NEW! Metatag support for better search indexing.

This is a substantial re-write of the existing testimonials manager, and fixes numerous bugs, adds features galore and is 100% Zen Cart 1.3.X compatible!
