Capterra reviews on an Elementor site

Elementor runs the embed right on the canvas, so you can design a section around your Capterra reviews as they really look. That makes it easy to try placements a static builder would not, including a popup for buyers about to leave, as long as the live page behaves like the editor.

Should Capterra reviews go in an Elementor exit-intent popup?

It can suit a software site, because a buyer leaving to compare options is the reader Capterra reviews address. Popups need Elementor Pro; place the HTML widget inside the popup template and set the exit-intent trigger.

Keep the popup short: the rating, a few reviews and one trial or demo link, shown once per visitor rather than on every exit. A popup that returns on each visit starts to feel like an advert, which undoes the point of independent reviews.

Why do Capterra reviews show in Elementor but not on the live page?

A WordPress cache or an optimization plugin is the usual cause. Elementor renders the script in the editor, but visitors may get a stored page or a deferred script.

Purge the cache after clicking Update, and exclude the BlooTrue script from any plugin that defers or combines scripts. If the code lost its script tag on save, it was pasted into a Text Editor widget; move it to the HTML widget.

SEO + AI schema · paid plans

Review schema markup, on paid plans

Paid widgets add schema.org Review and AggregateRating JSON-LD to the page they sit on, so search engines and AI answer engines can read your Capterra reviews as structured data. Google does not show review stars for reviews a business shows about itself, so the gain is readability, not stars. The free plan shows the reviews without the schema. See how the schema works

How to Add Capterra Reviews to Elementor

Connect your Capterra profile in BlooTrue, pick a style, then paste one embed code into the HTML widget on Elementor and publish.

  1. 1

    Edit the page with Elementor.

  2. 2

    Drag the HTML widget from the Elementor panel into a section.

  3. 3

    Paste the BlooTrue embed code into the HTML Code field.

  4. 4

    Click Update — the widget renders immediately, including in the editor.

Use the HTML widget, not a Text Editor widget — the text editor sanitizes script tags on save.

Where the Code Goes on Elementor

In Elementor the embed code goes into the HTML widget, dragged from the Elementor panel into a section and pasted into its HTML Code field.

Elementor runs the script on the canvas, so the reviews show while you edit as well as after you click Update. Do not use a Text Editor widget, because it sanitizes script tags on save. The widget takes the width of its column and its height follows the reviews. Since Elementor runs inside WordPress, a caching or security plugin can serve a stale page or block the script; purge the cache after updating.

If the widget does not show on Elementor

  • If the reviews vanished after saving, you used a Text Editor widget; move the code into an HTML widget, which keeps script tags.
  • If the editor shows the reviews but the live page does not, purge your WordPress caching plugin so the updated page is served.
  • If a security or optimization plugin defers scripts, exclude the BlooTrue script from its settings and reload.

Capterra Review Widget for Elementor — Free, No Plugin

Embed Capterra reviews on any Elementor page with a single copy-paste embed code. Capterra software reviews, embedded where buyers compare and decide. Installs via the HTML widget.

Where Capterra reviews help most on Elementor

Software companies on Elementor often have big content sites: docs, a blog, landing pages built by the marketing team.

Put the Capterra widget on the home page, the pricing page and every comparison or alternatives page, where buyers do the most checking. Posts that rank for problems your product solves can end with a compact widget beside a trial link. Documentation rarely needs it, because readers there are already users. If the pricing page is assembled from page-builder blocks, give the widget its own block rather than squeezing it into a pricing table cell, where it would be cut to the width of one plan.

About Capterra reviews in this widget

The Capterra widget brings the reviews from your Capterra product listing to your pages, with the rating out of 5 and review count Capterra publishes in the header. Software buyers use Capterra, a Gartner company, to build shortlists, so put the widget on the pages where they compare you. Capterra checks each review before publishing it. What site owners get wrong is reading the header as an average of the reviews on the page. It is Capterra's own figure and counts every review, including lower-rated ones a free widget leaves out.

Capterra Widget on Elementor — FAQ

Is the BlooTrue Capterra review widget free for Elementor?
Yes. BlooTrue is completely free to embed Capterra reviews on Elementor. No plugin, no recurring fee, unlimited views. The free plan shows your reviews with BlooTrue branding in the footer; paid plans remove the branding.
How do I install the widget on Elementor?
Edit the page with Elementor. Drag the HTML widget from the Elementor panel into a section. Paste the BlooTrue embed code into the HTML Code field. Click Update — the widget renders immediately, including in the editor.
Anything specific to Elementor worth knowing before I embed?
Use the HTML widget, not a Text Editor widget — the text editor sanitizes script tags on save.
Where should I place Capterra reviews on Elementor for the biggest lift?
A full-width section under the hero, or inside a popup triggered on exit intent.
Do the reviews stay up to date automatically?
Paid plans auto-sync your Capterra reviews daily, so the widget always shows your latest 5-star reviews without touching Elementor again. The free plan shows the reviews imported at setup.
What do I paste into the builder to pull my Capterra reviews?
The address of your product listing on Capterra, which takes the form capterra.com/p/ followed by a number and your product name. The builder reads the rating, review count and reviews from that listing. Pick a layout, copy the one-line embed and paste it into your comparison page; the whole thing takes about a minute.
I already display a Capterra badge, why would I add a widget?
Because the badge is an image. It shows no review content, none of the words reviewers wrote about your software, and no count of how many wrote them. The widget lists the reviews from your Capterra listing, so a buyer on your comparison page reads what other buyers said without leaving for Capterra.
Will my Capterra rating appear as stars under my page in Google search results?
No. Google's review-snippet rules exclude reviews a business shows about itself through an embedded widget. Paid plans still add schema.org Review and AggregateRating markup as JSON-LD carrying your Capterra rating and review count, which search engines and AI assistants can read when the embed renders inline on your page; if the embed sits in a sandboxed iframe, they never see it.
