How Do I Display Reviews.io Reviews on My WordPress Site with Feedspace?

If your business has been collecting reviews on Reviews.io and you are switching your review management to Feedspace, you do not need to lose the social proof you have already built. By importing your Reviews.io reviews into Feedspace first, your migrated testimonials keep all original content intact, including reviewer names, star ratings, and review text. Once imported, you can display those reviews directly on your WordPress site using Feedspace widgets, replacing any Reviews.io widgets you previously relied on.

What You Need Before You Start

• A Feedspace account with at least one form set up
• Your Reviews.io reviews exported or ready to import into Feedspace
• A WordPress site where you want to display the reviews
• The Feedspace WordPress plugin installed on your site

Step 1: Import Your Reviews.io Reviews into Feedspace

Before you can display your reviews on WordPress, you need to migrate them into Feedspace. Follow the Reviews.io import guide to bring your existing reviews into your Feedspace form.

1. Log in to your Feedspace account.
2. Navigate to the form where you want to store your migrated Reviews.io testimonials.
3. Follow the How to Import Reviews.io Wall of Love into Feedspace guide to complete the import process.
4. Once the import is complete, verify that your Reviews.io reviews appear in the Feedspace dashboard with all original content preserved.

Note: Imported Reviews.io reviews retain all original content, including the reviewer name, star rating, and review text. No information is lost during migration, so your social proof remains exactly as your customers wrote it.

Step 2: Create a Widget in Feedspace

With your migrated testimonials now inside Feedspace, create a widget to display them on your WordPress site.

1. In your Feedspace dashboard, go to the Share section for the form containing your imported Reviews.io reviews.
2. Select Widgets and choose the widget type you want to display. Options include:
   • Wall of Love
   • Slider
   • Single testimonial
   • Floating widget
3. Customise the widget appearance, such as the layout, colors, and which testimonials to show.
4. Copy the Widget ID or the embed code provided by Feedspace. You will need this in the next steps.

Step 3: Install the Feedspace WordPress Plugin

The Feedspace WordPress plugin lets you embed your widget anywhere on your site without writing any code.

1. Log in to your WordPress admin dashboard.
2. Go to Plugins and click Add New.
3. Search for Feedspace in the plugin directory.
4. Click Install Now next to the Feedspace plugin, then click Activate.
5. Once activated, go to the Feedspace plugin settings in your WordPress dashboard and connect it to your Feedspace account by entering your API key.

Step 4: Add the Widget to Your WordPress Page

Now embed your Feedspace widget on the page or post where you want your Reviews.io migrated testimonials to appear.

1. Open the WordPress page or post where you want to display the reviews in the block editor.
2. Click the + button to add a new block and search for the Feedspace block.
3. Select the Feedspace block and insert it into your page layout.
4. In the block settings, select the widget you created in Step 2 from the dropdown, or paste the Widget ID directly.
5. Click Update or Publish to save your page.
6. Visit your page on the front end to confirm your Reviews.io reviews are displaying correctly through the Feedspace widget.

Common Questions

Will my imported Reviews.io reviews look different in the widget?

The content of each review stays exactly as it was on Reviews.io. The visual presentation is handled by your chosen Feedspace widget style, which you can customise to match your site’s branding.

Can I display reviews from multiple sources in one widget?

Yes. If you have imported reviews from Reviews.io and collected new testimonials through Feedspace forms, you can display all of them together in a single widget by selecting the relevant form that contains all your testimonials.

Do I need to keep my Reviews.io account active?

No. Once your reviews are imported into Feedspace, Feedspace serves them independently. You can safely deactivate or cancel your Reviews.io subscription without losing any of your migrated review content.
