Is there a free review widget for Joomla?

Which review platforms can I show on Joomla?

21 platforms: Google, Trustpilot, Yelp, Facebook, TripAdvisor, Airbnb, Angi, Glassdoor, Agoda, BBB, OpenTable, RateMDs, Capterra, G2, Indeed, TrustRadius, Clutch, Expedia, Booking.com, Etsy, Google Play — each with its own Joomla install guide. Starter ($9/month) blends its 3 connected platforms into one all-in-one widget, and Pro ($29/month) and higher blend every platform you connect.

Do I need a Joomla plugin or app?

No. BlooTrue is a pure HTML embed — one line of code pasted into the Joomla editor. Drop into a Custom HTML module. Works with Joomla 3, 4, and 5.

How do I add a review widget to Joomla without installing an extension?

Create a Custom module under System, Site Modules, New, Custom, paste the BlooTrue embed code into it with the editor set to None or CodeMirror, choose a template position and assign the menu items where it should appear. Save and publish. No extension is installed; the Custom module is part of Joomla core.

Why does Joomla delete my script tag when I save the module?

Joomla's default editor, TinyMCE, drops script tags as part of its cleanup on save, and Text Filters in Global Configuration can strip tags for some user groups too. Set your user's editor to None or CodeMirror, paste again, and save as a Super User or a group whose filter allows scripts.

Does this work on Joomla 3 as well as Joomla 4 and 5?

Yes. The Custom module exists in all three; the difference is where you find it. Joomla 4 and 5 use System, Site Modules, while Joomla 3 lists modules under Extensions. The TinyMCE behaviour and the need for a code editor when pasting scripts are the same across versions.

How it installs on Joomla

1
In the Joomla admin, create a Custom module (System → Site Modules → New → Custom).
2
Switch the editor to code view (or set your editor to 'None' in user settings).
3
Paste the BlooTrue embed code and assign the module to a template position and menu pages.
4
Save & publish — the widget renders in that position.

Where the code goes on Joomla

Joomla holds the embed in a Custom module, created from System, then Site Modules, then New, then Custom, and shown wherever you assign a template position and menu items. The admin form shows only your code; nothing renders until you open the site. Width comes from the template position you pick, and module chrome such as Cassiopeia's card style adds its own padding. TinyMCE removes script tags on save, so set your account's editor to None or CodeMirror before pasting, and check Text Filters in Global Configuration if your user group is filtered. Clear the cache under System after publishing.

Where reviews earn their place on a Joomla site

A full-width module position under the article intro on the homepage.

If the widget does not show on Joomla

If the saved module is empty, TinyMCE stripped the script; switch your editor to None or CodeMirror in your user settings and paste again.
Module saved but nothing on the site? Check the Menu Assignment tab so the module shows on the pages you expect, and confirm the position exists in your template.
Old content still showing after edits usually means Joomla's page cache; go to System, Clear Cache, and reload the front end.
