A Magento2 module that provides dynamic Torah verse/quote sliders for both the backend (by default) and the frontend. Whether you're a store admin or a customer, you can enjoy these engaging, responsive sliders.
The module calculates the available space and adjusts the number of words per line to optimize the display. If the text exceeds the configured row limit, the verse scrolls vertically, creating a seamless user experience. This ensures that the widget is Responsive Web Designed and works beautifully on all devices.
One of the most exciting aspects of this module is that it leverages the Torah library, a powerful API client with built-in caching (via SQLite). This PHP library pulls text from the Bible Info service, offering up to 21 different translations. For more details, feel free to check out the repository.

Search feature helps you find what you are looking for in the Bible. There are several options for searching available. The results are presented with pagination. You may choose the page (next, previous) and set amount data visible on a single page.
Note: Before using the search feature, you need to index your preferred Bible translations by running the following command: console command for f.e bt:

- Search: Enter the text you're looking for.

- Translation: Select one of 21 available translations.
This feature allows you to display a specific quote on a given day of the year—perfect for creating a daily inspiration widget! You can set up 366 quotes, one for each day of the year.
To create an annual quote:
- Create a quote and fill in the required fields.
- Assign it to an annual group.
- Name (field 'Code') the quote using a special code that includes the date (last 4 characters represent the month and day, e.g., 'quote1024' for October 24th).
