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 G2 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 G2 Reviews to OpenCart

Connect your G2 profile in BlooTrue, pick a style, then paste one embed code into the theme HTML module on OpenCart and publish.

  1. 1

    In the OpenCart admin, open Design → Layouts and pick the target layout.

  2. 2

    Add an HTML Content module (Extensions → Modules → HTML Content) with the BlooTrue embed code pasted in.

  3. 3

    Assign the module to the layout position.

  4. 4

    Save and refresh the storefront — the widget renders in that position.

Paste in the module's source/code view — the WYSIWYG editor can escape script tags.

Where the Code Goes on OpenCart

In OpenCart the embed code goes into an HTML Content module, created under Extensions, Modules, HTML Content, and then assigned to a position in a layout under Design, Layouts.

The module editor is a WYSIWYG field whose visual mode can escape script tags, so switch to the source view before pasting. There is no canvas preview in the admin; you see the reviews only on the storefront after saving. The module takes the width of its assigned position, and assigning it to the home layout's content-bottom position shows it on the homepage only, while a category layout covers category pages.

If the widget does not show on OpenCart

  • If the storefront shows the code as text, you pasted in visual mode; open the module's source view and paste the code there.
  • If the module is saved but not visible, open Design, Layouts and confirm the module is assigned to a position in that layout.
  • If the change is not showing, clear the OpenCart cache from the dashboard; the theme caches rendered output.

G2 Review Widget for OpenCart — Free, No Plugin

Embed G2 reviews on any OpenCart page with a single copy-paste embed code. Real G2 stars — the B2B software buyer's strongest trust signal — on your own site. Installs via the theme HTML module.

Where G2 reviews help most on OpenCart

Software companies rarely run on OpenCart, but some do, to sell licences, templates, plugins, hardware that ships with software, or add-ons.

The buyer is then a business, and G2 reviews from users of your product are the proof that buyer recognises. Put the widget on the product page for the licence or plan, under the description and above the price options. A compact badge on the home page covers the rest. Leave it off physical merchandise: G2 reviews describe the software, and beside a T-shirt or a mug they read as unrelated, which undercuts the reviews rather than the mug.

About G2 reviews in this widget

Your G2 widget lists the reviews from your G2 product profile and puts the star rating and review count G2 reports for that profile in the header. Both figures are read from G2, not averaged from the reviews on the page. G2 verifies the people who leave those ratings, which is why software buyers check them before booking a demo. The mistake to avoid is treating a G2 badge as an embed. G2 badges are image files with no review text behind them, so a visitor learns nothing beyond the logo. The widget shows the reviews themselves.

G2 Widget on OpenCart — FAQ

Is the BlooTrue G2 review widget free for OpenCart?
Yes. BlooTrue is completely free to embed G2 reviews on OpenCart. 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 OpenCart?
In the OpenCart admin, open Design → Layouts and pick the target layout. Add an HTML Content module (Extensions → Modules → HTML Content) with the BlooTrue embed code pasted in. Assign the module to the layout position. Save and refresh the storefront — the widget renders in that position.
Anything specific to OpenCart worth knowing before I embed?
Paste in the module's source/code view — the WYSIWYG editor can escape script tags.
Where should I place G2 reviews on OpenCart for the biggest lift?
The home layout's content-bottom position and category pages above the footer.
Do the reviews stay up to date automatically?
Paid plans auto-sync your G2 reviews daily, so the widget always shows your latest 5-star reviews without touching OpenCart again. The free plan shows the reviews imported at setup.
We have two products listed on G2, can each one get its own widget?
Each widget reads one G2 product profile, the page at g2.com/products/your-product/reviews, so two products means two widgets with two URLs. The free plan includes a single widget, so start with the product your site promotes most; the header will carry that product's own G2 rating and review count.
Which number sits at the top of the G2 widget?
The star rating and review count from your G2 product profile, as G2 publishes them. BlooTrue does not build a new average from the G2 reviews it displays. Since the free plan lists only your G2 reviews of four stars and up, the header can read lower than the reviews under it, because G2 counts the lower ratings too.
What do I give up by using the free plan for G2 reviews?
Two things. A small BlooTrue badge appears on the widget, and the widget keeps the G2 reviews present when you created it rather than fetching new ones. There is no card to enter and no view limit. Paid plans remove the badge and check your G2 profile every day for reviews added since.
