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 RateMDs 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 RateMDs Reviews to Big Cartel

Connect your RateMDs profile in BlooTrue, pick a style, then paste one embed code into the theme code editor on Big Cartel and publish. Theme code editing requires a paid Big Cartel plan.

  1. 1

    In Big Cartel admin, open Design and click the Edit code (Advanced) view.

  2. 2

    Open the layout or page template where the reviews should appear.

  3. 3

    Paste the BlooTrue embed code into the template markup.

  4. 4

    Save — the widget renders on the live shop.

The code editor edits the live theme — copy the template's contents somewhere safe before pasting so you can revert.

Where the Code Goes on Big Cartel

Big Cartel keeps the embed code inside the theme itself. In the admin, open Design, switch to the Edit code (Advanced) view, and open the layout or page template where you want reviews, such as the home template below the featured products loop.

Paste the code straight into the template markup. There is no visual preview of the pasted snippet; you save and load the live shop. Width and height come from the surrounding theme markup and the widget. Because the editor changes the live theme, copy the template's contents somewhere safe before pasting.

If the widget does not show on Big Cartel

  • Cannot open the Edit code (Advanced) view? Theme code editing is a paid Big Cartel feature, so check your plan before looking elsewhere for the option.
  • If the shop breaks after saving, paste back the template copy you saved earlier, then re-insert the BlooTrue code on its own line.
  • Reviews missing on the storefront? Make sure the code is in the home template below the featured products loop, not only in a page template.

RateMDs Review Widget for Big Cartel — Free, No Plugin

Embed RateMDs patient reviews on any Big Cartel page with a single copy-paste embed code. Patient reviews from RateMDs, on the page where people choose a doctor. Installs via the theme code editor. Theme code editing requires a paid Big Cartel plan.

Where RateMDs reviews help most on Big Cartel

Clinics that sell through Big Cartel, skincare, supplements, treatment vouchers, need to be careful about where patient reviews appear.

RateMDs reviews describe the doctor or the clinic, not the products, so they belong on the About page and on pages that sell consultations or treatments, not on product pages for creams or supplements, where they could read as a medical endorsement of the product. On a treatment voucher page, place the widget under the description. Keep it off the checkout. Rules on using patient reviews in advertising vary by profession and region, so check yours first.

About RateMDs reviews in this widget

The RateMDs widget brings the patient reviews from your RateMDs profile onto your practice site, with the rating out of 5 and the review count RateMDs publishes in the header. Patients review doctors there without attaching a name, so the widget shows them unnamed, exactly as the source does. Reviewers score staff, punctuality, helpfulness and knowledge separately, and the header figure is the overall average RateMDs itself calculates, never a number worked out from the reviews sitting on your page. Anything RateMDs has hidden never reaches the widget.

RateMDs Widget on Big Cartel — FAQ

Is the BlooTrue RateMDs review widget free for Big Cartel?
Yes. BlooTrue is completely free to embed RateMDs patient reviews on Big Cartel. 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 Big Cartel?
In Big Cartel admin, open Design and click the Edit code (Advanced) view. Open the layout or page template where the reviews should appear. Paste the BlooTrue embed code into the template markup. Save — the widget renders on the live shop. Theme code editing requires a paid Big Cartel plan.
Anything specific to Big Cartel worth knowing before I embed?
The code editor edits the live theme — copy the template's contents somewhere safe before pasting so you can revert.
Where should I place RateMDs patient reviews on Big Cartel for the biggest lift?
The home template under the featured products loop.
Do the reviews stay up to date automatically?
Paid plans auto-sync your RateMDs patient reviews daily, so the widget always shows your latest 5-star reviews without touching Big Cartel again. The free plan shows the reviews imported at setup.
What do I paste into the builder to pull my RateMDs reviews?
The full address of your profile, the one containing /doctor-ratings/ followed by a number and your name. A city or specialty listing page will not work, and neither will your name on its own, because the profile address is what identifies you. Then pick a layout and paste the embed.
Why do the reviews in my widget have no patient names?
Because RateMDs publishes them that way. Patients write about a doctor there without attaching a name, so there is no name for the widget to carry, and inventing one would misrepresent the source. Each card shows the score, the date and what the patient actually wrote.
Will my RateMDs rating show as stars in Google search results?
No. Google's review-snippet rules exclude reviews a business shows about itself through an embedded widget. On a paid plan the embed still publishes schema.org markup with your rating and review count, so search engines and AI assistants can read it, but only when the widget renders inline rather than inside a sandboxed iframe, since search engines cannot read what a sandbox hides.
