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 Thinkific

One embed code, pasted into the Text & Media section (code view).

  1. 1

    Open the page in Thinkific Site Builder (Design Your Site).

  2. 2

    Add a Text & Media section where the reviews should appear.

  3. 3

    In the text editor, click the code view button (</>) and paste the BlooTrue embed code.

  4. 4

    Toggle back, save, and view the live page — the widget renders there.

Paste the embed in the section's CODE view (</> button) — pasting into the normal text view escapes the HTML instead of rendering it.

Where the Code Goes on Thinkific

Thinkific's Site Builder, under Design Your Site, holds the embed inside a Text & Media section. Open the section's text editor and switch to code view with the </> button before pasting; the normal text view treats the snippet as literal text and prints angle brackets instead of reviews. The section stretches to the content width of your theme and grows with the widget, so no height setting is needed. The Site Builder preview may leave the area empty until you save and open the live page, which is where the reviews actually render.

If the widget does not show on Thinkific

  • Seeing the raw embed code as text on the page means it was pasted in the normal view. Reopen code view (</>) and paste there.
  • If the reviews are in the editor but vanish live, the section was not saved. Toggle out of code view, save, then reload the public page.
  • A blank area where the widget should be can mean the code view editor lost a line. Paste the snippet again in one go without editing it.

Where OpenTable reviews help most on Thinkific

Chefs and restaurateurs sell cooking classes and courses on Thinkific, 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 Thinkific — FAQ

Is the BlooTrue OpenTable review widget free for Thinkific?
Yes. BlooTrue is completely free to embed OpenTable reviews on Thinkific. 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 Thinkific?
Open the page in Thinkific Site Builder (Design Your Site). Add a Text & Media section where the reviews should appear. In the text editor, click the code view button (</>) and paste the BlooTrue embed code. Toggle back, save, and view the live page — the widget renders there.
Anything specific to Thinkific worth knowing before I embed?
Paste the embed in the section's CODE view (</> button) — pasting into the normal text view escapes the HTML instead of rendering it.
Where should I place OpenTable reviews on Thinkific for the biggest lift?
Course landing pages beneath the hero and beside the buy button — real student/customer proof lifts enrollments.
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 Thinkific 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.
