Site Reviews

Beskrivelse

Site Reviews is a complete review management solution for your website that is designed to work in a similar way to Amazon, Tripadvisor, and Yelp. The plugin provides blocks, shortcodes, and widgets, along with full documentation.

You can pin your best reviews so that they are always shown first, request review verification, require approval before new reviews are published, require visitors to be logged-in in order to write a review, send a custom notification when reviews are submitted, respond to reviews, and a lot more!

Site Reviews provides more features and options than almost every other free review plugin, and the support provided on the WordPress forum is excellent.

Automatic installation

Automatic installation is the easiest option — WordPress will handle the file transfer, and you won’t need to leave your web browser. To do an automatic install of Site Reviews, log in to your WordPress dashboard, navigate to the Plugins menu, and click “Add New.”

In the search field type “Site Reviews,” then click “Search Plugins.” Once you’ve found it, you can view the plugin details such as the point release, rating, and description. Install it by clicking “Install Now,” and WordPress will take it from there.

Manual installation

Updating

Automatic updates should work smoothly, but we still recommend you back up your site.

If you encounter issues with your reviews after an update, go to the Site Reviews Tools page and run the “Migrate Plugin” tool. That should return things to normal.

Anmeldelser

The installation and the setup within the Elementor environment was simple. I was able to insert the widgets into a page template that had all my design elements. It worked well instantly in three test reviews. I very much like the way it emails me when there’s a review. To add images to a review, you’d have to upgrade to the paid version. The price for the paid version, 89 British pounds per year, is steep for a small site like mine, so I’ll do without the images and other extras for now.

t is an excellent tool for our website, reviews are an attribute that helps customers make a decision and also then share their experiences.

Simple enough to use for someone like me who does minimal coding, while it is versatile in set-up and customisation. It is very helpful it blocks for the Gutenberg block editor and integrates seemlessly into the Generatepress theme I use without having to use and understand shortcodes and code snippets. I tried Stars Rating plug-in before but there I could get the look and feel I wanted, which was quite straightforward to achieve with Site Reviews.
