Install the review widgets on your store
Add the WiseReviews widgets to your theme so customers can see and write reviews on your storefront. This takes two steps: enable the app embed, then add the widget blocks to your theme.
Open the widget installer
- In WiseReviews, go to Settings.
- Under Install review widgets, click Open widget installer.
You can also get here from the Setup guide on the Home page by clicking Install widgets.
Step 1: Enable the app embed
The app embed loads the widget code on your storefront. Widgets will not appear until it is enabled.
- In the installer, under Enable app embed, click Enable app embed. This opens the Shopify theme editor on the App embeds panel in a new tab.
- Turn on the WiseReviews app embed.
- Click Save in the theme editor.
Step 2: Add the widget blocks
- Back in the installer, under Widget app blocks, click Enable app blocks. This opens the theme editor on a product page.
- In the left sidebar, click Add block in the section where you want a widget, then pick a WiseReviews block under Apps:
- Product Reviews: the full reviews list with a write-a-review form, shown on product pages.
- Star Rating: the average rating and review count, usually placed near the product title.
- Featured Reviews: a carousel of the reviews you marked as featured. You can add this on any page, like your home page.
- Drag each block where you want it, then click Save.
The Star Rating block also works on collection pages, so shoppers see ratings while browsing.
