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

If you have moved your testimonial collection from Senja to Feedspace, your migrated testimonials are fully intact in Feedspace, including the original reviewer names, ratings, and content. The next step is putting that social proof to work on your WordPress site. Feedspace widgets let you embed your imported Senja testimonials directly into any page or post, so visitors see the same compelling reviews without any gaps in your credibility during the migration.

What You Need

• A Feedspace account with your Senja testimonials already imported
• A WordPress site where you want to display the reviews
• The Feedspace WordPress plugin installed and activated

Step 1: Import Your Senja Testimonials into Feedspace

Before creating a widget, make sure your Senja testimonials have been imported into Feedspace. If you have not done this yet, follow the Senja import guide to bring your Wall of Love into Feedspace. All original testimonial content, including reviewer details and star ratings, is preserved during import.

1. Log in to your Feedspace account.
2. Navigate to Import Reviews in your dashboard.
3. Select Senja as the import source and follow the steps to complete the import.
4. Once the import is complete, go to Reviews in the sidebar to confirm your Senja testimonials appear in your account.

Note: Imported Senja testimonials retain all original content exactly as collected, including reviewer names, photos, ratings, and text. Nothing is lost or altered during the migration.

Step 2: Create a Widget in Feedspace

With your Senja testimonials in Feedspace, create a widget to display them on your WordPress site.

1. In your Feedspace dashboard, go to Widgets in the sidebar.
2. Click Create Widget and choose a widget type. Common options include:
   • Wall of Love for a masonry grid of testimonials
   • Slider for a rotating carousel
   • List for a simple stacked layout
3. Name your widget (for example, “Senja Migrated Reviews”) and configure the display settings, such as layout, colors, and which reviews to include.
4. Click Save to create the widget.
5. Copy the Widget ID or shortcode shown on the widget detail page. You will need this in the next steps.

Step 3: Install the Feedspace WordPress Plugin

The Feedspace WordPress plugin lets you embed widgets using a simple shortcode, without touching any code.

1. Log in to your WordPress admin panel.
2. Go to Plugins and click Add New.
3. Search for Feedspace in the plugin search bar.
4. Click Install Now next to the Feedspace plugin, then click Activate.
5. In your WordPress sidebar, go to the Feedspace settings page and enter your Feedspace API key to connect your account.

Step 4: Add the Widget to a WordPress Page or Post

Once the plugin is connected, you can place your Senja testimonial widget anywhere on your WordPress site.

1. Open the WordPress page or post where you want to display the reviews.
2. In the Gutenberg editor, click the + block inserter and search for Shortcode.
3. Add the Shortcode block and paste your Feedspace widget shortcode (for example, [feedspace_widget id="YOUR_WIDGET_ID"]).
4. Click Update or Publish to save the page.
5. Visit the page on your site to confirm the migrated Senja testimonials are displaying correctly.

Tips for Displaying Migrated Testimonials

• Filter by source: In the widget settings, you can filter to show only your imported Senja reviews, keeping the display focused on that batch of testimonials.
• Mix with new reviews: You can also combine your migrated Senja testimonials with new reviews collected directly in Feedspace for a fuller social proof section.
• Place strategically: Add the widget to your homepage, pricing page, or landing pages where social proof has the most impact on conversions.
• Use multiple widget types: Create a Wall of Love widget for your testimonials page and a Slider widget for your homepage hero section, both pulling from the same imported Senja reviews.

Common Questions

Will my imported Senja reviews look different from reviews collected in Feedspace?

No. Feedspace displays all testimonials, whether imported from Senja or collected natively, using the same widget styling. Your imported reviews blend seamlessly with any newer testimonials you collect in Feedspace.

Can I edit my imported Senja testimonials in Feedspace?

Yes. After import, your Senja testimonials are standard Feedspace reviews and can be edited, tagged, featured, or hidden just like any other review in your account.

Do I need to reinstall the plugin if I create more widgets later?

No. The Feedspace WordPress plugin is installed once. For any additional widgets you create in Feedspace, simply copy the new widget shortcode and paste it into whichever page or post you want to display it on.
