Platforms

The Platforms settings is where you can enable and connect to any of the supported reviews platforms.

On your WordPress dashboard navigate to “Reviews > Settings.” Select the “Platforms” tab and choose which review platforms you would like to have available to connect to.

Advanced

The Advanced Settings tab has two settings that affect how your site handles data related to WP Business Reviews.

  1. Automatic Refresh
    Options: Disabled, Daily, Weekly (default)
    This controls how often WP Business Reviews will check the Platform APIs for any new reviews available that can be pulled into your Collections. See “Refreshing Reviews” for more details on how this impacts your Collections.
  2. Uninstall Behavior
    Options: “
    This controls what happens when you delete the WP Business Reviews plugin from your website. Keeping this data means you can install WP Business Reviews again at any point and all of your settings, single reviews, Collections are all still available to you. Removing this data means all of those will be deleted from your database upon plugin deletion. Unless you plan to cease using and displaying reviews on your website completely, we suggest that you leave the default “Keep all plugin settings, collections, and reviews” selected.
