Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about RicReviews

Yes, you need a Google Places API (New) key with Places API enabled. You can get one from Google Cloud Console. The API key is required for the plugin to fetch reviews from Google Places API.

You can find your Place ID using Google Maps or Google's Place ID Finder tool. The Place ID is a unique identifier for your business location on Google Maps.

Google Places API returns a maximum of 5 reviews per place per API call. This is a hard limit imposed by Google, not a limitation of this plugin. Each API call returns up to 5 reviews, and the plugin performs automatic fetches based on your configured frequency. Over time, you may accumulate more reviews in the database as Google updates the "5 most helpful reviews" for your place.

Yes! You can configure multiple languages in the plugin settings by entering comma-separated language codes (e.g., "en,fr,de"). The plugin will make separate API calls for each language and merge the results, avoiding duplicates. You can also filter reviews by language using the language attribute in the shortcode.

Simply add [ricreviews] to any page, post, or widget. You can also use attributes to customize the display: limit: Number of reviews to display (default: from settings) order_by: Sort method - time (most recent), time_asc (oldest first), or rating (highest rating) order: Sort direction - ASC or DESC (default: DESC) language: Language code to filter reviews (e.g., "it", "en", "fr"). If not specified, uses WordPress locale Example: [ricreviews limit="5" order_by="rating" language="en"]

Reviews are automatically fetched and updated via WordPress cron based on your configured frequency (Daily, Weekly, or Monthly). You can enable or disable automatic updates from the plugin settings. You can also manually trigger a fetch by saving your settings or using the "Fetch Reviews Now" button in the admin panel.

No, the plugin does not track users. The plugin only makes API calls to Google Places API to fetch reviews, and this requires explicit configuration by the site administrator. No user data is collected or tracked.
