The request includes the plugin client name and your WordPress site URL as the OAuth referrer so Jotform can authorize the connection and return an API key.<\/p>\n\n<p>In the plugin admin, the widget builder connects to Jotform API endpoints such as <code>https:\/\/api.jotform.com\/website-widgets<\/code>, <code>https:\/\/api.jotform.com\/website-widgets\/mywidgets<\/code>, and <code>https:\/\/api.jotform.com\/user\/combinedinfo<\/code>. If your account uses EU, HIPAA, or Enterprise settings, equivalent Jotform regional or enterprise endpoints may be used. These requests send the connected Jotform API key, widget IDs, widget configuration values, and selected review source details when you create, edit, list, preview, or delete widgets.<\/p>\n\n<p>On the public site, the shortcode and block load the published widget script from the connected Jotform site, for example <code>https:\/\/www.jotform.com\/website-widgets\/embed\/{widget_id}<\/code> or the configured regional or enterprise Jotform domain. The browser sends the widget ID and normal web request data such as IP address, user agent, and referrer to Jotform so the widget can be rendered.<\/p>\n\n<p>This service is provided by Jotform: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jotform.com\/terms\/\">Terms of Use<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jotform.com\/privacy\/\">Privacy Policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<ol>\n<li>Upload the plugin files to <code>\/wp-content\/plugins\/jotform-review-widgets-for-google\/<\/code><\/li>\n<li>Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress<\/li>\n<li>Open <strong>Jotform - Widgets for Google Reviews<\/strong> in the admin menu<\/li>\n<li>Click \"Connect with Jotform\" to authorize<\/li>\n<li>Configure your widget settings<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<!--section=faq-->\n<dl>\n<dt id=\"how%20do%20i%20add%20google%20reviews%20to%20my%20website%3F\"><h3>How do I add Google Reviews to my website?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>You can add Google Reviews to your site using Jotform\u2019s Google Reviews widget. Simply connect your Google Business account by pasting your Google Place link into the widget\u2019s \u2018Source\u2019 field. Choose your preferred layout like carousel, slider, or badge and customize colors, themes, and width to match your website\u2019s design. Once you\u2019re done, click Continue and copy the embed code. Paste it into your site where you want the reviews to appear, and they\u2019ll display instantly.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"can%20i%20choose%20how%20my%20reviews%20appear%20on%20the%20page%3F\"><h3>Can I choose how my reviews appear on the page?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>Yes. You have full control over the look and feel of your reviews. In the Layout section of the widget, you can select between carousel, slider, badge, or grid views. You can also toggle between light and dark themes, enable full-width display, and adjust spacing for a perfect visual fit. This flexibility allows the reviews to blend naturally into your existing design - whether it\u2019s a product page, home page, or testimonial section.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"will%20my%20widget%20update%20automatically%20when%20new%20reviews%20come%20in%3F\"><h3>Will my widget update automatically when new reviews come in?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>Absolutely. Once you connect your Google Business account, the widget stays in sync with your live reviews. Every new rating or comment posted on your Google profile appears automatically in your website widget.

It doesn\u2019t allow you to select individual reviews or display lower ratings. This way, your site highlights your most positive customer feedback and keeps the setup simple with no extra settings to manage.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"how%20much%20customization%20does%20the%20widget%20offer%3F\"><h3>How much customization does the widget offer?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>A lot. Besides layout and color controls, you can switch between light and dark themes, set full-width mode, and even adjust typography to match your brand. The live preview feature lets you see exactly how your reviews will appear before you embed them. That way, you can achieve a professional, seamless look without touching any code.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"can%20i%20collect%20new%20reviews%20using%20jotform%3F\"><h3>Can I collect new reviews using Jotform?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>Yes. You can create a feedback or testimonial form in Jotform Form Builder to collect new customer reviews and display them on your website. Once you receive new submissions, you can add them manually to your site\u2019s review section. This helps you keep your testimonials fresh while continuing to build trust with new visitors.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"is%20the%20google%20reviews%20widget%20free%3F\"><h3>Is the Google Reviews widget free?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>Yes.
