Testimonial Builder [TEST_B] Shortcode

The Testimonial Builder shortcode is a dynamic tool that fetches and displays testimonials. The ‘TestShortCode’ function is triggered when this shortcode is used. It checks if an ‘id’ is set in the passed attributes. If not, it leaves the ‘WPSM_TEST_ID’ empty. If an ‘id’ is present, it assigns it to ‘WPSM_TEST_ID’. Then, it requires the ‘content.php’ file, which presumably contains the logic to display the testimonial based on the ‘WPSM_TEST_ID’. Afterward, it resets the WordPress query and returns the output.
