- Is the BlooTrue Facebook review widget free for Lodgify?
- Yes. BlooTrue is completely free to embed Facebook reviews on Lodgify. 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 Lodgify?
- In your Lodgify dashboard open Website then Pages, and pick the page you want. Click Add new widget and choose Raw HTML. Paste the BlooTrue embed code into the field and click Save, then drag the widget where you want it. Click Publish website — the widget renders on the live site.
- Anything specific to Lodgify worth knowing before I embed?
- The widget does not render inside the Lodgify editor, only on the published site — click Publish website and open the live URL before deciding it did not work.
- Where should I place Facebook reviews on Lodgify for the biggest lift?
- Directly above the booking form on each property page, and under the hero on the home page — guest reviews carry the most weight at the moment someone picks dates.
- 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 Lodgify 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.
