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 Facebook 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

The same widget, built from whichever platform your reviews live on. Free plan on every one.

How to Add Facebook Reviews to Lightspeed

Connect your Facebook profile in BlooTrue, pick a style, then paste one embed code into the theme HTML element on Lightspeed and publish.

  1. 1

    In Lightspeed eCom, open the theme editor for your storefront.

  2. 2

    Add a custom HTML element (or edit the template region) where reviews should appear.

  3. 3

    Paste the BlooTrue embed code.

  4. 4

    Save/publish the theme — the widget renders on the shop.

On templated regions, paste into the code view — visual fields escape script tags.

Where the Code Goes on Lightspeed

In Lightspeed eCom the embed code goes into a custom HTML element in the theme editor, or into a template region if your theme exposes one.

Templated regions use visual fields that escape script tags, so paste into the code view. The theme editor does not run the script on its canvas; confirm the reviews on the shop after you save or publish the theme. The element takes the width of its section. Theme edits apply storefront-wide, so an element in a shared section shows on every page, while a page's Source view limits it to that page.

If the widget does not show on Lightspeed

  • If the shop shows the snippet as text, the visual field escaped it; paste into the code view of the element or template region.
  • If the theme editor shows nothing, that is expected; save or publish the theme and open the shop to see the reviews.
  • If the widget shows on every page but you want one page, paste it in that page's Source view instead of the theme.

Where Facebook reviews help most on Lightspeed

Local businesses that sell through Lightspeed are usually a shop with a counter as well as a website: a bakery, a bike shop, a florist.

Customers who reviewed you on Facebook mostly reviewed the visit, the service and the staff, not a single product, so the widget belongs on store-wide pages rather than product pages: the home page under the banner, the About page, and the page that explains delivery or local pickup. That last one matters most, because it is where a nearby buyer decides whether to trust you with an order. If a product review app already shows per-item stars, keep Facebook reviews off those pages so the two never get mixed up.

About Facebook reviews in this widget

The Facebook widget embeds the recommendations left on your Facebook Page. Facebook retired star ratings for Pages in 2018, so there is no native Facebook star average; the widget shows each Recommends as a 5-star card and turns the Page's overall recommendation percentage into a 0 to 5 star figure for the header, both read from your Page. A customer leaves a recommendation by tapping Recommends or Doesn't recommend and writing a comment, which only works once Reviews are switched on in your Page settings. Many owners reach for Facebook's Page Plugin instead, an iframe of your timeline with no way to feature recommendations.

Facebook Widget on Lightspeed — FAQ

Is the BlooTrue Facebook review widget free for Lightspeed?
Yes. BlooTrue is completely free to embed Facebook reviews on Lightspeed. 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 Lightspeed?
In Lightspeed eCom, open the theme editor for your storefront. Add a custom HTML element (or edit the template region) where reviews should appear. Paste the BlooTrue embed code. Save/publish the theme — the widget renders on the shop.
Anything specific to Lightspeed worth knowing before I embed?
On templated regions, paste into the code view — visual fields escape script tags.
Where should I place Facebook reviews on Lightspeed for the biggest lift?
The homepage trust band under the USP icons.
Do the reviews stay up to date automatically?
Paid plans auto-sync your Facebook reviews daily, so the widget always shows your latest 5-star reviews without touching Lightspeed again. The free plan shows the reviews imported at setup.
Facebook only lets people click Recommends, so what rating does my widget display?
Facebook dropped numeric stars for Pages in 2018, so the widget does not invent a Facebook star average. Each Recommends becomes a 5-star card, and the header converts the Page's overall recommendation percentage into a 0 to 5 star figure. Both come from your Page, not from a calculation over the cards on your site.
Can I use Facebook's own Page Plugin to embed my recommendations?
No. The Page Plugin drops your whole Page timeline into an iframe and has no setting to show only recommendations, and Facebook's own tools cannot place them on an external site at all. The BlooTrue builder takes your Page URL instead and gives you a one-line embed, with no Facebook ad spend and no plugin required.
My Page has no Reviews tab, so where would the recommendations come from?
They only exist once you turn them on: open your Facebook Page settings, find the Reviews or Recommendations option and switch it on. Until then customers cannot tap Recommends and the builder finds nothing to import. A free widget holds the recommendations found that day; paid plans check the Page daily and drop the BlooTrue badge.
