Handy Tools tab: one-click starter demo, JSON import/export of your testimonials, clear cache, reset settings and system info. Translation-ready, accessible (ARIA, keyboard, RTL) and built on the WordPress Coding Standards. External services This plugin includes an optional Demo Library that loads ready-made testimonial sets from a remote service hosted on GitHub Pages: devmonowar.github.io/wp-plugin-demo-library It connects to this service only when you: open the Demo Library screen — to download the list of demos and show their preview images; and click Import Demo — to download that demo’s testimonials and images into your site’s Media Library. No data from your site is sent to the service; only public demo files (JSON and images) are downloaded. The service is provided by the plugin author. Source code on GitHub — it is served by GitHub Pages, whose terms and privacy policy apply. Video testimonials (optional): if you add a YouTube or Vimeo URL to a testimonial, the visitor’s browser connects to those services — YouTube thumbnails are loaded from img.youtube.com, and the player (youtube-nocookie.com or player.vimeo.com) is only embedded after the visitor clicks play. No connection is made if you don’t use video, and nothing is sent to these services by your site itself. YouTube is provided by Google (terms — privacy); Vimeo (terms — privacy).
Collect Reviews
Collect Reviews is a powerful WordPress plugin designed to streamline the process of collecting reviews on various platforms like Google or Facebook to grow your business. Whether you’re running an online store, a service-based business, or a content-driven website, the Collect Reviews plugin allows you automatically collect reviews from your customers. E.g. after purchase in your store or some form submission. Collect reviews automatically Currently, the plugin supports integrations with WooCommerce, Easy Digital Downloads, and WPForms plugins to collect reviews automatically. How it works Review Request Email: After the purchase or form submission the plugin sends a review request email to the customer. Rating Selection: The review request email contains a stars widget, allowing the customer to select a rating from 1 to 5, indicating their level of satisfaction or experience. Redirect for Positive Ratings: If the customer chooses a positive rating (e.g., 4 or 5 stars), they are redirected to your website, where you suggest leaving a review on a specific platform, such as Google. This intermediate step ensures transparency by informing the customer about the redirection to an external platform instead of directly redirecting them from the email. Private Feedback for Negative Ratings: If the customer chooses a negative rating, they are not informed about the option to leave a review on Google or any other platform. Instead, they are redirected to a review form on the website, enabling them to provide feedback privately to the website owner. This helps the website owner address any concerns or issues raised by the customer directly, preventing negative reviews from appearing on public review platforms. In summary, the plugin sends review request emails, customers rate their experience, positive ratings are directed to leave reviews on external platforms, negative ratings provide private feedback. Collect reviews manually You can always send review requests manually to any email addresses from the plugin interface. Development Plugin source code is available on GitHub.
