Curating Your Reviews

Updated 2026-02-17

Sociable Reviews gives you full control over which reviews appear on your storefront. You can select and deselect individual reviews directly from the app --- no CSS or code changes required.

Curating Reviews in the App

During Widget Creation

When you create a new widget, Step 2 of the wizard is Review Selection. Here you can:

  • Click on individual reviews to select or deselect them. Only selected reviews will be displayed on your store.
  • Use Select All or Deselect All for quick changes.
  • Filter by source using the tabs (All, Google, Facebook, Trustpilot) to view reviews from a specific platform.
  • Selected reviews are numbered in the order you clicked them. This order determines how they appear on your storefront.

After Widget Creation

You can change your review selection at any time:

  1. Go to the app dashboard and click Manage on the widget.
  2. Switch to the Review Selection tab.
  3. Click on reviews to select or deselect them, and rearrange their order.
  4. Click Save Selection to apply your changes.

Refreshing Reviews

If new reviews have been posted on Google, Facebook, or Trustpilot since you last synced:

  1. Click Resync Reviews on the Review Selection tab (or Refresh Reviews on the Details tab).
  2. Wait for the sync to complete.
  3. Newly fetched reviews will appear in the selection grid. They will not be automatically selected --- you choose which new reviews to include.

Hiding Reviews with CSS (Advanced)

If you need more granular control on the storefront, you can also use CSS to hide specific reviews by position:

`/* Hide the third review */ .sociable-review:nth-child(3) { display: none !important; }

/* Hide reviews only on mobile */ @media (max-width: 768px) { .sociable-review:nth-child(4) { display: none !important; } }` Note that position-based CSS selectors may change if you update your review selection or order.
