  • Uses WooCommerce product details page review layout and style
  • Working with all page builders and themes
  • Easy click and select WooCommerce shortcode builder

Style customer reviews

  • Show reviewer or product image
    Case: Often reviewer does not add its own picture and the review looks less attractive.
    In this case show the product image and visitor will connect review text with product image.
  • For mobile view there is no need to restyle the customer reviews, they are mobile responsive out of the box

usage examples

(They are in german, because my shop target country is germany)
The plugin is fully working in any country and any language (see FAQ below how to translate).

  • use on salespages and show multiple review sections, each for one product

    Hint: Only one of the multiple WooCommerce reviews shortcodes on a page should be using an Schema.org markup. So google knows what WooCommerce product reviews to view in results
    See google results live

FAQ

How can i instantly check if the ratings stars/aggregated rating markup is valid?

Check your schema.org ratings markup by visting
Google rich snippets tester
General Schema Markup Validator
Hint: All Warnings are okay and not needed to show the stars and rating details on google. This warnings only say optional data could be provided.
Hint: Only one „product“ element should be found, otherwise google does not know what markup to use. In each shortcode you can „disable schema“. Please disable all schemas and leave only one active. Idea: Leave the schema with the most reviews enabled.

How can i duplicate and reuse shortcode settings?

Go to the „Review Shortcodes List“ The duplicate buttons are on the right side of each shortcode.
Benefits: You save a lot of time by duplicate settings to show WooCommerce product reviews shortcode with the same structure and for example only different products.

I want to get woocommerce reviews by product id and display it in a page

When you edit a product you get the product ID from the URL, it is the post id.
This id you add to the manual shortcode like this:
[wprshrtcd_woo_product_reviews products_ids=“53451,8266″ product_title=“So bewerten uns unsere Reinigungspaket Kunden:“ per_page=“5″ show_pic_size=“shop_single“ show_unique_type=“reviewer“ show_unique_amount=“1″]

Easy way is create the shortcode with our WooCommerce reviews shortcodes builder and just copy [wprshrtcd_woo_product_reviews id=“83700″] to the place you want to view the reviews.

Do i need to look at all 11 product review plugins wordpress?

No, we use and maintain the WooCommerce reviews shortcodes plugin by our self.
So you can be sure you get one of the best and working customer feedback and reviews plugin.

Who knows if the plugin works? Not me. Aside from adding a top-level menu, which is absurd for a plugin that has no sub-pages and is directly related to Woocommerce (put it under Woo’s nav, or the Product nav), you have to subscribe to the company’s newsletter just to install the plugin. And then they call it an „opt in“ as if you have any choice.

<!– wp:paragraph –> <p class=““>When purchased, I thought it was a great support but I´m going to uninstall and purchase other solution because I´ve been wondering during the last two months if it will be compatible with HPOS Woocommerce update WITH NO ANSWER FROM THE SUPPORT TEAM.<br>When I purchase a plugin and installed, I need to be sure that I will need to change some day because I will not receive any reply from the developer.<br>That´s why I say NOT RECOMMENDED AT ALL</p> <!– /wp:paragraph –>

Looks extremely ugly when I add it to a page. A little bit more brainstroming shoud have been put into the design. Like show reviews side by side not under each other.
17. Juli 2020
I added the shortcode to my home page and on new customer feedback, the review is shown automatically and after some days Google shows also the updated aggregated ratings with stars in search results. Exactly what I needed.
