Description
Tenvow Movie Review adds a simple editor meta box for movie review posts. Enter the movie name, rating, director, cast and release date, and the plugin will:
- Display a styled review summary box at the top of the post content, showing the rating out of 10 and a verdict (e.g. “Excellent”, “Good”, “Average”).
- Output structured
MovieandReviewschema (JSON-LD) in the page<head>, using the current post author as the reviewer, so search engines can show rich review snippets.
The review box only appears on posts where “Enable Tenvow Review” is checked in the meta box.
Features
- Editor meta box with movie name, rating (1–10), director, cast and release date fields.
- Enable/disable toggle per post.
- Automatic review summary box prepended to post content.
- Automatic Movie + Review JSON-LD schema output for eligible posts.
- Settings page (Settings > Tenvow Movie Review) with a “Delete data on uninstall” option.
Screenshots
Installation
- Upload the
tenvow-movie-review-ratingfolder to the/wp-content/plugins/directory, or install the plugin directly through the WordPress Plugins screen. - Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” screen in WordPress.
- Edit (or create) a post, check “Enable Tenvow Review” in the Tenvow Movie Review box in the sidebar, and fill in the movie details.
- Publish or update the post — the review box and schema markup will appear automatically.
FAQ
-
Does this work on pages?
-
No, the review box and schema markup are added to standard posts only.
-
What happens if I leave the rating field empty?
-
If no rating is entered, the review box will not be displayed, and schema markup will not be output for that post.
-
Does uninstalling the plugin remove my data?
-
By default, no. Deleting the plugin from the Plugins screen leaves your review data (movie name, rating, director, cast, release date) in place, in case you reinstall it later.
If you want the data removed automatically when the plugin is deleted, go to Settings > Tenvow Movie Review and check “Delete data on uninstall.” With that box checked, deleting the plugin will permanently remove all review meta data. Simply deactivating the plugin never removes any data, regardless of this setting.
-
Where can I find full documentation?
-
Full setup and usage documentation is available at https://tenvow.com/movie-review-rating-plugin-documentation/
-
Is there a Pro version?
-
Yes. Tenvow Movie Review & Rating Pro adds a richer review card (movie poster, director, cast and release date displayed on the post) on top of everything in this free version. The free version is fully functional on its own and does not require Pro.

Changelog
1.3.4
- Renamed plugin to “Tenvow Movie Review & Rating” (slug: tenvow-movie-review-rating), per WordPress.org plugin review feedback on name distinctiveness.
- Fixed Contributors to reflect the actual submitting account.
1.3.3
- Fix: Text Domain now matches the plugin slug (movie-review-and-rating-by-tenvow), resolving Plugin Check text-domain-mismatch errors. Renamed the main plugin file and folder to match.
- Removed the manual load_plugin_textdomain() call — WordPress.org loads translations automatically by slug, and the call was flagged as discouraged.
- Cleaned up two minor code-standards warnings in uninstall.php (unprefixed variable names, direct-query notices on the uninstall cleanup routine).
1.3.2
- Changed: the public-facing rating label is now “Editor’s Rating” instead of “Tenvow Rating”, since the plugin is used on many different sites, not only Tenvow’s own.
- Fix: the schema.org Review
publishernow uses the installing site’s own name instead of a hardcoded “Tenvow”, so structured data accurately reflects who published the review on each site.
1.3.1
- Security: removed JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES from the JSON-LD output so a
</script>sequence in a movie name, director, or cast field can no longer break out of the schema<script>tag on the front end. - Fix: the Movie schema no longer outputs
"image": falsefor posts without a featured image.
1.3.0
- Added a Settings page (Settings > Tenvow Movie Review) with a “Delete data on uninstall” checkbox. Data is kept by default when the plugin is deleted; check the box if you want it removed automatically.
1.2.0
- Prepared for WordPress.org: added readme.txt, uninstall.php, translation-ready strings, and hardened output escaping. No feature changes.
