About this plugin
This plugin puts a daily Bible verse on your WordPress site. Every visitor sees the same verse of the day, and it changes at midnight. You can switch it to a random Bible verse on each visit instead.
Visitors can tap for another verse, open the whole chapter, or share the verse.
The verse widget comes in six styles:
- Window puts the verse on a photo.
- Quiet is plain text between two thin lines, made for articles and sermon notes.
- Today is a small card for a sidebar.
- Calendar shows the scripture next to today’s date.
- Poster sets the verse in large type on a block of colour.
- Floating adds a “Verse for today” button to the bottom corner of the page, which opens the verse in a small card.
You can pick a light, dark or automatic theme, one of four accent colours or your own hex colour, round, soft or square corners, and a sans, serif or your theme’s own font. Bible translations: King James Version (KJV), World English Bible (WEB) and American Standard Version (ASV).
The widget draws itself inside a Shadow DOM. Your theme’s CSS can’t break it, and it doesn’t restyle anything on your page.
