I just rolled out version 12.4.9 of WP Review Slider Pro, and it comes with some nice upgrades that a lot of you have been asking for. Here’s what’s new:
New: WP Review Slider Embed Add-On (Optional)
This one’s for those of you who run multiple sites or do client work. The new Embed Add-On makes it easy to display your reviews on any external non-WordPress website, landing page, or even in an app.
No more copy/paste or hacks — just drop in the embed and your reviews are there.
👉 Note: this is a paid add-on separate from Pro.
New Review Sources
I’ve also added a couple of new places you can pull reviews from:
- DocFinder:
- DocFinder is a trusted platform for finding and reviewing healthcare professionals and medical services. With the new integration in WP Review Slider Pro, you can now seamlessly import your DocFinder reviews directly into your WordPress site. This means you can showcase authentic patient feedback alongside your other social media reviews, boosting customer confidence and enhancing your online reputation. Whether you want to display reviews from your DocFinder profile in a stylish slider or a grid, WP Review Slider Pro makes it easy to create multiple templates and customize the display using custom CSS. By importing DocFinder reviews, you ensure your visitors see exactly the review content that matters most, helping to build trust and attract new patients. This addition complements the plugin’s support for popular review sites, making it a comprehensive solution for gathering and displaying all your reviews in one place.
- Checkatrade:
- Checkatrade is a UK-based online directory and review platform that connects consumers with vetted and trusted local tradespeople and service professionals. It allows customers to find reliable contractors such as builders, plumbers, electricians, and other home service providers, and to read verified reviews from previous clients. Checkatrade helps ensure quality and trust by vetting its members and collecting genuine customer feedback, making it a popular choice for homeowners seeking reputable tradespeople. WP Review Slider Pro enhances your ability to leverage Checkatrade reviews by providing a seamless integration that brings those verified testimonials directly onto your WordPress website. This integration allows you to effortlessly import and display your Checkatrade reviews, ensuring your site visitors see authentic, trustworthy feedback without having to leave your site. The plugin stores these reviews in your WordPress database, which not only improves page load speeds but also ensures your reviews are always available, even if external services experience downtime.
If you’ve got reviews on either of these platforms, such as Facebook reviews, you can now bring them straight into WP Review Slider Pro and display them right alongside your other sources.
Update Today
If you’re a Pro user, you’ll get these new review sources as soon as you update. Just head into your WordPress dashboard and run the update.
If you’re still on the free version, this might be a good time to check out WP Review Slider Pro. You’ll get access to these new integrations plus a ton of layouts, customization options, and other review sources.
Thanks again for using the plugin! As always, most of these features come directly from requests I’ve received, so keep the feedback coming.
