Use of regions for testimonials

Hi,

I am trying to use the regions function to display testimonials on my website. I obviously have many of these and have a blockquote style I would like them to follow. The code is as follows:

<blockquote class="style1"> <p>"<?php perch_content('Testimonials'); ?>"</p> </blockquote>

My question is... How would I go about having a separate blockquote for each item? The only way I can think of is by changing the template to a code block but this means it will be more difficult for my staff to update.

Any help appreciated.

You would make the blockquote part of the template, I'd suggest looking at our video tutorial on editing templates.

Thanks for your quick reply, Rachel.

I have tried what you suggested - it works in part.

My code is:

<blockquote class="style1"> <perch:content id="text" type="textarea" label="Testimonial" markdown="true" editor="simplemde" /> <perch:content id="text" type="text" label="Author" markdown="true" editor="simplemde" /> </blockquote>

The Testimonial field works fine but the other field does not show. Any ideas?

Just noticed my HUGE mistake. I have changed the id tags and it now works perfectly.

Thanks Rachel!
