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 Google 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

Why Use BlooTrue for OpenTable on Webnode?

The free way to put OpenTable reviews on your Webnode site — OpenTable's own widget only takes reservations.

Shows Reviews, Not Just Bookings

OpenTable's official widget books tables but never displays reviews. BlooTrue is the free, paste-and-go complement — it pulls verified-diner reviews from your public OpenTable restaurant 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 API Key Required

Works with any public OpenTable restaurant page — just paste your full restaurant URL (like https://www.opentable.com/r/your-restaurant). No developer application, no API quotas, no partner integration to set up.

How Do I Install BlooTrue OpenTable on Webnode?

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

Open Your Page in the Webnode Editor

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

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

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.

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 OpenTable embed code there. Do not paste into a regular Text widget — Webnode strips scripts from text blocks for safety.

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 OpenTable every 24 hours.

OpenTable Review Widget for Webnode — Free, Shows the Reviews OpenTable's Widget Won't

BlooTrue's OpenTable Review Widget for Webnode is a free embed that displays your restaurant's reviews on any Webnode site via the built-in HTML widget. OpenTable's own website widget only takes reservations — it books tables but never shows the reviews your restaurant has earned. BlooTrue fills that gap by pulling reviews from any public OpenTable restaurant page and turning them into a paste-ready Webnode embed. Every review comes from a verified diner — someone who booked through OpenTable and honored the reservation — and stars display as real 1–5 ratings with your upstream OpenTable average, no conversion. 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 where the embed runs inline rather than inside an iframe, so search engines and AI assistants can read the reviews as structured data. Google does not show review stars for reviews a business shows about itself, so the gain is readability, not stars.

Why doesn't OpenTable's own widget show reviews?

OpenTable's first-party widget is built for one job: taking reservations. It never renders the verified-diner reviews that convince people to book in the first place — unlike Google's Place Cards, there is no official paste-ready review embed. Third-party widgets are the standard way Webnode restaurant sites surface their OpenTable reviews — BlooTrue is the free option in that category, and it pastes straight into the Webnode HTML widget on any plan.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

Is the BlooTrue OpenTable widget free for Webnode?

Yes. BlooTrue is completely free for Webnode. No Webnode upgrade, no marketplace fee, unlimited widget views, no sign-up needed to preview. The free plan shows your OpenTable 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 OpenTable 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 OpenTable widget. If your Webnode editor shows the HTML option in the widgets list, you are already eligible.

Doesn't OpenTable already have an official widget for Webnode?

OpenTable's official website widget only takes reservations — it books tables but never displays your reviews. There is no first-party way to show the verified-diner reviews your restaurant has earned on your own site. BlooTrue fills that gap: it pulls reviews from any public OpenTable restaurant page and turns them into a paste-ready Webnode embed. You can run both side by side — the official widget for bookings, BlooTrue for the social proof that convinces diners to book.

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. Do not 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.
