How to add reviews to WooCommerce

The exact steps for WooCommerce, in about five minutes, without a developer.

The short answer

Build a widget, copy one line of code, and paste it into a Custom HTML block. the WordPress block editor on a product or shop page. No developer and no theme files.

Step by step

  • Build the widget and connect your review sources

  • Choose a layout and match the colours to your site

  • Copy the embed code

  • In WooCommerce: the WordPress block editor on a product or shop page

  • Add a Custom HTML block and paste the code

  • Save and check the live page

Where to put them

In the product description tab, under the add-to-cart area, or on the shop landing page. Shortcodes work if your theme supports them in product tabs.

Full-width sections suit carousel and grid layouts; narrow columns suit a badge.

Does WooCommerce have reviews built in?

WooCommerce has product reviews built in and they are perfectly good for reviews left on your own store. What they cannot show is a review someone left on Google, Amazon or Etsy.

If your reviews already live on Google or a marketplace, nothing built into a site builder will reach them.

If they do not appear

Product page templates vary a lot between WooCommerce themes, so a block added to one template may not appear on another.

The WooCommerce troubleshooting page works through the rest in order.
