Using the Neotext Generator

I recently completed a section of the site that allows Neotext users to generate neotexts for quotes hosted on their websites.

The process requires you to:

1. Add a wordpress plugin to their site (or install the javascript code yourself).
2. Create a quote using the “cite” attribute
   • Highlight the text and click the “Neotext blockquote” button
     
   • Enter the url into the prompt:
     
   • See the quote formatted like a blockquote (indented)
     
   • View the quote source to verify the “cite” attribute is filled in.
3. Submit the URL of your page into the Generator
   
4. Reload the page to view the javascript data (json)
