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 OpenTable 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

How to Add OpenTable Reviews to Podia

One embed code, pasted into the Custom code / embed section. Custom code sections may require a paid Podia plan.

  1. 1

    Open the page in the Podia site editor.

  2. 2

    Add a new section and choose the custom code / embed option where the reviews should appear.

  3. 3

    Paste the BlooTrue embed code into the section.

  4. 4

    Save — the widget renders on your published Podia page.

Podia renders embeds on the published page; while editing you may only see the section frame.

Where the Code Goes on Podia

On Podia the embed code lives in a custom code / embed section that you add to a page in the Podia site editor. While you are editing, the section usually shows only its frame, because Podia renders third-party embeds on the published page rather than in the editor. The section spans the page's content width and grows to fit the widget once the reviews load. Put it on a product or course page next to the pricing block, so buyers see the reviews beside the price they are about to pay.

If the widget does not show on Podia

  • An empty section frame in the Podia editor is normal. Podia renders embeds on the published page, so save and open the live product page.
  • If no custom code or embed option appears when you add a section, check whether your Podia plan includes custom code sections.
  • One Podia product page shows reviews and another does not? The custom code section belongs to a single page; repeat the paste on the other product.

Where OpenTable reviews help most on Podia

Chefs and restaurateurs sell cooking classes and courses on Podia, and the restaurant's OpenTable reviews are the credential behind them. A student deciding whether to pay for a pasta course wants to know the chef's food is good, and diners who booked a table through OpenTable are an independent answer. Put the widget on the course sales page right after the instructor bio, with a sentence naming the restaurant. Do not repeat it inside the lessons. If you also run in-person classes at the restaurant, the reviews belong on the booking page for those sessions too, next to the date and the price, where a first-timer makes up their mind.

About OpenTable reviews in this widget

Your OpenTable widget shows the diner reviews from your restaurant's OpenTable page, the one at opentable.com/r. The score heading the widget is the overall star rating and review count OpenTable reports for that page, rather than a number built from the cards. Every review comes from a diner who booked through OpenTable and honoured the reservation, so nobody who did not sit down at your tables can post one. OpenTable's own website widget only takes reservations; pasting it in the hope of seeing diner reviews gets you a booking form, since OpenTable has no review embed.

OpenTable Widget on Podia — FAQ

Is the BlooTrue OpenTable review widget free for Podia?
Yes. BlooTrue is completely free to embed OpenTable reviews on Podia. 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 Podia?
Open the page in the Podia site editor. Add a new section and choose the custom code / embed option where the reviews should appear. Paste the BlooTrue embed code into the section. Save — the widget renders on your published Podia page. Custom code sections may require a paid Podia plan.
Anything specific to Podia worth knowing before I embed?
Podia renders embeds on the published page; while editing you may only see the section frame.
Where should I place OpenTable reviews on Podia for the biggest lift?
Product and course pages near the pricing block — buyer proof at the exact purchase decision.
Do the reviews stay up to date automatically?
Paid plans auto-sync your OpenTable reviews daily, so the widget always shows your latest 5-star reviews without touching Podia again. The free plan shows the reviews imported at setup.
I already have the OpenTable reservation widget on my site, does it show reviews too?
No. OpenTable's reservation widget takes bookings and offers no way to show diner reviews. The BlooTrue widget is a separate one-line embed built from your opentable.com/r restaurant URL, showing the reviews diners left after honouring a reservation, with the OpenTable rating and review count in the header taken from your page.
Are OpenTable reviews worth embedding if diners can only review after a reservation?
Yes, because that rule is what sets OpenTable apart. OpenTable only opens the review form to a diner who honoured a reservation booked through OpenTable, so every card on your site comes from a person who ate at your restaurant on a known date. Sites that let anyone post cannot say that about their reviews.
How quickly does a new OpenTable review reach my website?
On a paid plan, by the next day: the widget refreshes from your OpenTable page every 24 hours, so a review written after last night's reservation appears the following day, and the BlooTrue badge is removed. On the free plan the diner reviews are the ones imported when you first published the widget; new ones do not arrive.
