Why Use BlooTrue for Facebook on Webnode?

The only free way to put Facebook reviews on your Webnode site — Facebook itself doesn't offer an embed.

Fills Facebook's Missing Embed

Facebook doesn't publish an official embed widget for merchants. BlooTrue is the free, paste-and-go alternative — pulls reviews from your public Facebook page automatically.

Works on the Free Webnode Plan

No Mini/Standard/Profi/Business upgrade. Webnode exposes the HTML widget on every plan — even the free tier with the Webnode-branded promo bar — and BlooTrue pastes straight into it.

Modern + Legacy Editor Support

Works in the modern Webnode editor (post-2020 redesign) and on legacy sites. Drop an HTML section, paste, publish — same flow on either editor.

No Facebook API Key Required

Works with any public Facebook Page. No Facebook Fusion application, no API quotas, no business-level claim required.

What makes a Facebook widget different from a Google review widget?

Facebook's recommendation system works differently from star-based platforms like Google. Knowing how recommendations become stars, and how Page moderation works, avoids surprises after you embed.

How BlooTrue turns Facebook recommendations into star ratings

Facebook retired numeric star ratings in 2018. Instead, visitors tap Recommends or Doesn't recommend and write a short comment, and the Page shows a percentage of people who recommend it. BlooTrue normalizes that into the star format your other widgets use: each “Recommends” renders as a 5-star review, each “Doesn't recommend” as 1 star, and the Page's overall recommendation percentage becomes a clean 0–5 star header rating. The result is a Facebook widget that looks and reads exactly like your Google or Yelp widget — no confusing percentages on your site. The header rating always comes from Facebook's own published aggregate, never from averaging the individual cards.

Where the recommendations come from and how often they refresh

BlooTrue fetches the publicly-visible recommendations from your Facebook Page on a server-side schedule — roughly once every 24 hours on paid plans — and caches the result. Your site never calls Facebook directly, so visitor traffic to your page doesn't depend on Facebook being reachable, and the widget loads instantly from cache. Only recommendations that are public on your Page are included; anything set to private or hidden by the Page owner is never pulled. Each recommendation keeps its reviewer name, photo, and comment, and links back to your Facebook Page.

Turning on recommendations and what shows up in the widget

Recommendations only appear if your Page has the Reviews / Recommendations section enabled and public. If your Page is brand new or has recommendations switched off, there's nothing for the widget to import yet — turn the section on in your Page settings and the widget will populate as soon as your first public recommendation lands. Once enabled, the widget shows whatever your Page shows publicly: no more, no less. If a recommendation disappears from your widget after a sync, it almost always means the reviewer deleted it or Facebook removed it — the widget simply follows your Page's public state.

Moderation, Community Standards, and attribution

Facebook moderates recommendations under its Community Standards and removes spam, hate speech, and content that violates its policies. Because BlooTrue reads only your Page's public recommendations, the widget automatically reflects those removals on the next sync — you never display content Facebook has already taken down. Every card keeps the Facebook mark and the reviewer's name, and clicking a review links back to your Facebook Page, so attribution stays intact. BlooTrue never fabricates a rating: an empty “Recommends” with no comment is still shown as a real recommendation, and the header number is always Facebook's own aggregate.

Facebook tips for Webnode

  • Webnode's HTML Editor renders the Facebook widget without needing the paid plan tier (it works on the free plan too).
  • Facebook recommendations may include hyperlinks that Webnode's text component would otherwise rewrite — the iframe widget bypasses that completely.
  • The Facebook widget works with Webnode's contact form below it without competing for focus on tab navigation.

How Do I Install BlooTrue Facebook on Webnode?

Takes less than a minute. No coding, no upgrade, no Facebook API key.

1

Open Your Page in the Webnode Editor

Log into Webnode and open your site in the editor. Click the page where you want the Facebook reviews to appear (Home, About, Testimonials, or any other page). The page becomes editable inline.

Works in the modern Webnode editor (post-2020 redesign) and on legacy sites.

2

Click + Add Section and Choose HTML

Click + Add Section at the bottom of the page, or the small + button that appears between two existing sections when you hover. From the widgets list, choose HTML (sometimes labelled HTML / Embed). Webnode drops a placeholder HTML section onto the page.

3

Paste the Embed into Edit HTML

Click the new HTML widget, then click Edit HTML in the floating toolbar. A modal opens with a single text field. Paste the BlooTrue Facebook embed code there. Do not paste into a regular Text widget — Webnode strips scripts from text blocks for safety.

4

Click Save, then Publish

Click Save in the Edit HTML modal. The widget renders inside the editor preview immediately. Then click Publish at the top right of the Webnode editor — this pushes the live version to your .webnode.com subdomain (or your custom domain on a paid plan).

Reviews auto-sync from Facebook every 24 hours.

Facebook Review Widget for Webnode — Free, Fills Facebook's Embed Gap

BlooTrue's Facebook Review Widget for Webnode is a free embed that displays your reviews on any Webnode site via the built-in HTML widget. Facebook itself does not provide an official embed widget for merchants — its Fusion API is gated for partner apps, not self-service merchant embeds. BlooTrue fills that gap by pulling reviews from any public Facebook business page and turning them into a paste-ready Webnode embed. The widget works on every Webnode plan — including the free tier (with the Webnode subdomain and Webnode-branded ads), as well as Mini, Standard, Profi, and Business — using the standard drag-and-drop editor. No premium upgrade is required because the HTML widget is exposed on every Webnode tier. The widget loads asynchronously, so it does not slow down the Webnode-rendered page. On paid plans, schema.org Review + AggregateRating JSON-LD is added to the page, which makes it eligible for star ratings in Google search results where the embed runs inline rather than inside an iframe.

Why doesn't Facebook have an official embed?

Facebook's Fusion API is positioned as a partner-channel product (used by sites like Apple Maps and Trivago) rather than as a merchant self-service product. Facebook does not publish a paste-ready embed widget the way Google publishes Place Cards. Third-party widgets are the standard way Webnode owners surface their Facebook reviews on their own site — BlooTrue is the free option in that category, and it pastes straight into the Webnode HTML widget on any plan.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

Is the BlooTrue Facebook widget free for Webnode?

Yes. BlooTrue is completely free for Webnode. No Webnode upgrade, no marketplace fee, unlimited views, no sign-up needed to preview. The free plan shows your Facebook reviews with BlooTrue branding in the footer.

Does the widget work on the Webnode free plan with ads?

Yes. The widget works on the Webnode free plan even though Webnode injects its own branded promo bar on free sites. Webnode's ads sit in their own slot and do not interfere with the HTML widget. Your Facebook reviews render normally inside the HTML section.

Do I need a paid Webnode plan to add an HTML widget?

No. The HTML widget is available on every Webnode plan, including the free tier. There is no Mini, Standard, Profi, or Business upgrade required to embed the BlooTrue Facebook widget. If your Webnode editor shows the HTML option in the widgets list, you're already eligible.

Does Facebook offer its own embed widget for Webnode?

No. Facebook does not provide an official embed widget for businesses to display their reviews on a website. Facebook's Fusion API is gated and primarily intended for partner apps, not merchant self-embeds. Third-party widgets like BlooTrue are the only path — BlooTrue pulls reviews from any public Facebook business page and turns them into a paste-ready Webnode embed.

Does it work with the new Webnode editor (post-2020 redesign)?

Yes. BlooTrue works with the modern Webnode editor (the redesigned interface rolled out from 2020 onward) as well as legacy Webnode sites. In the modern editor you click + Add Section, choose HTML from the widget panel, and paste. The flow is identical for legacy sites.

Where exactly should I paste the embed code on Webnode?

Paste into the dedicated HTML widget. After clicking + Add Section, scroll the widget list until you see HTML (sometimes labelled HTML/Embed code), drop it onto the page, click Edit HTML, paste the embed in the field, and Save. Don't paste into a regular Text widget — Webnode strips scripts from text blocks for safety.

Is the widget responsive on mobile Webnode sites and will it slow Webnode down?

Yes to responsive, no to slowing it down. The widget is fully responsive and adapts to the column width Webnode renders it in — slider and grid layouts collapse to a single column on mobile automatically. The widget also loads asynchronously after the Webnode-rendered page content, so it never blocks rendering. The script is under 20KB and reviews are CDN-cached, with typical impact on Largest Contentful Paint under 50ms.
