Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records D11 Random Quote Loader version 2.3.4 as active, updated 19d ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
D11 Random Quote Loader adds a classic WordPress widget that pulls a random quote from a custom database table each time a page loads.
Quotes are managed entirely from within your WordPress dashboard, and the plugin ships with three sample quotes so it works immediately after activation.
Features:
Displays a random quote on every page load using an efficient COUNT + OFFSET strategy (not ORDER BY RAND())
Full admin panel — add, edit, and delete quotes without touching code
CSV Export — download all your quotes as a spreadsheet-compatible.csv file
CSV Import — bulk-upload quotes with automatic encoding detection (UTF-8 and Windows-1252 / Excel), BOM stripping, per-row validation, and a 5,000-row safety limit
Clean, semantic HTML output using blockquote, p, and cite elements — easy to style with your theme’s CSS
Fully internationalised — every string is ready for translation via the d11-random-quote-loader text domain
Safe uninstall — drops the custom table only when the plugin’s own signature column is detected
Security hardened — nonces on every form, current_user_can() capability checks, full output escaping, and wp_rand() throughout
[d11rql_random_quote] shortcode — insert a random quote into any post, page, or text widget
Quote categories — tag quotes and display different sets on different pages or sidebars
