常見問題集

Can I add multiple quote widgets to my site?

Yes! You can add multiple widgets with different display modes. For example, use text-only in a narrow sidebar and text + image in a wider content area.

How often do the quotes update?

Quotes are automatically updated daily at midnight (Eastern Time). Each quote is handpicked by FixQuotes editors. The widget caches data locally to ensure fast page loads.

Can I customize the widget appearance?

The widget is designed to inherit your theme’s fonts and colors. For advanced customization, you can add custom CSS targeting the .fixquotes-qotd-widget class.

What image size is used?

The widget uses high-quality 1200×628px landscape images, optimized for social sharing and responsive display.

Does this plugin slow down my site?

No. Quotes are cached locally for 1 hour, so the external API is only called periodically. Images are served from FixQuotes’ CDN.

Is this plugin GDPR compliant?

Yes. The plugin fetches quote data from FixQuotes.com and displays images from our CDN. We do not collect any personal information about your visitors.

What versions of WordPress does this work with?

The plugin requires WordPress 5.0+ and PHP 7.4+. It’s tested up to WordPress 6.4.

Can I use this with the Classic Editor?

Yes! Use the shortcode [fixquotes_qotd] in the Classic Editor, or add the widget via Appearance Widgets.
