“101 Tech Quotes” plugin for WordPress
This is my first attempt to make a plugin for WordPress. It is pretty simple and it contains 101 tech quotes which are displayed randomly.
Here are 3 examples of what you can expect in the plugin:
Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.
- Rich Cook
Normal people believe that if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Engineers believe that if it ain’t broke, it doesn’t have enough features yet.
- Scott Adams
Man is the lowest-cost, 150-pound, nonlinear, all-purpose computer system which can be mass-produced by unskilled labor.
- NASA in 1965
Fell free to download it and use in your Wordpress and I would really appreciate if you could leave a comment in my blog aswell.
Thank you :)

Looking good in WP 2.0.5.
Where do I go for help setting this up on my WP blog?
I am new to wordpress, just installed it today. I like the quotes. I downloaded the plugin and uploaded it to my plugins directory, I can see it and activate it, too. But I can t see the quote… would all themes support it? Do i need to do anything else, like use a certain theme?
Hey Russ
if you look in the Readme file you can see that you need to add <?php ShowQuote(); ?> to one of the template files in the selected Theme. You can do this by going to the Theme Editor under Presentation and the select the file where you want your quotes to show up..
:)
hope that this will help you..
