1What is a review widget?

A review widget is a section that displays customer reviews on your storefront. Reviewifyd offers several widget types: Review Summary (shows average rating), Review List (shows full reviews), and Review Notifications (pop-up cards).

2Choosing a widget type

From your Reviewifyd dashboard, navigate to Widgets → Product Page. You can choose from three layouts:

1Review Summary — reviews displayed in a responsive card grid. Best for stores with many reviews.
2All Review — reviews stacked vertically with full review text. Best for detailed, text-heavy reviews.
3Review Notifications — reviews in a horizontal slider. Best for mobile-first stores.

💡

Start with Review Summary or Review Notifications — they perform best on mobile devices, which account for over 60% of Shopify traffic.

3Customizing the widget

In the Widget Editor you can adjust:

1Primary color — used for stars, buttons, and accents. Set to your brand color.

4Positioning the widget on your product page

After saving your widget settings, head to the Shopify Theme Editor (Online Store → Themes → Customize). Under the product template, add a new section and select 'Reviewifyd Reviews'. Drag it to your preferred position — typically below the product description.

5Previewing and publishing

Click 'Preview' in the Theme Editor to see the widget before going live. When you are happy with the result, click 'Save'. Changes are published instantly.

💡

Use your browser's device toolbar (F12 in Chrome) to preview the widget on mobile and tablet screen sizes.
