Safe deactivation: native review text and ratings remain available in WooCommerce.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\nSource code and build process<\/h4>\n\n
All PHP, CSS, and JavaScript distributed with Popo Reviews is included in human-readable source form in the plugin package. Popo Reviews does not require npm, webpack, a minification step, or other build tooling to regenerate the distributed assets. The JavaScript files in assets\/js\/<\/code> are the maintained source files used by the plugin.<\/p>\n\nShortcodes<\/h3>\n\n
Popo Reviews includes reusable shortcodes for WooCommerce product pages, landing pages, page builders, and store-wide review sections.<\/p>\n\n
\n[popo_reviews product_id=\"123\"]<\/code> \u2014 full product review widget. Custom filters support scope<\/code>, limit<\/code>, rating<\/code>, verified<\/code>, media<\/code>, order<\/code>, layout<\/code>, and visibility controls.<\/li>\n[popo_review_summary product_id=\"123\"]<\/code> \u2014 average rating, count, and optional rating histogram.<\/li>\n[popo_rating product_id=\"123\"]<\/code> \u2014 compact stars, average, and review count.<\/li>\n[popo_review_count product_id=\"123\"]<\/code> \u2014 published review count only.<\/li>\n[popo_customer_photos product_id=\"123\" limit=\"12\" columns=\"6\"]<\/code> \u2014 responsive customer photo gallery.<\/li>\n[popo_review_form product_id=\"123\"]<\/code> \u2014 secure review-form launcher for a valid signed review invitation; it does not expose public submission.<\/li>\n[popo_featured_reviews scope=\"store\" limit=\"6\"]<\/code> \u2014 reviews marked Featured by an administrator.<\/li>\n[popo_review_slider scope=\"store\" limit=\"8\"]<\/code> \u2014 responsive review carousel.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\nThe legacy [popo_review_gallery]<\/code> shortcode remains supported for backward compatibility. On a product page, product_id<\/code> can usually be omitted. Use scope=\"store\"<\/code> for store-wide supported shortcodes.<\/p>\n\nPrivacy<\/h3>\n\n
Popo Reviews can store reviewer names, email addresses, ratings, review text, uploaded images or videos, verification metadata, and review-request metadata related to WooCommerce orders. Review media is stored in the WordPress Media Library.<\/p>\n\n
The plugin integrates with the WordPress personal-data exporter and eraser for review data it manages. It also adds suggested privacy-policy text in WordPress when available.<\/p>\n\n
Optional email-open and review-link click tracking is disabled by default. If the store administrator enables it, tracking uses first-party URLs on the store itself. Popo Reviews does not send telemetry to Popo servers.<\/p>\n\n
When an administrator imports review media from remote URLs, the store server contacts the administrator-provided remote host to download that media. This request occurs only as part of the administrator-initiated import.<\/p>\n\n
External services and network requests<\/h3>\n\n
Popo Reviews does not require a PopoMaster cloud service and does not send telemetry to PopoMaster. Review-request and reward emails use the WordPress\/WooCommerce email environment configured by the store.<\/p>\n\n
If an administrator imports review media from a remote URL, the store server contacts only the administrator-provided host to retrieve that media. If optional delivery automation is enabled through Popo Order Track, Popo Reviews receives local WordPress hooks from that plugin; Popo Reviews itself does not contact a PopoMaster tracking service.<\/p>\n\n

\n- Install Popo Reviews from Plugins > Add New, or upload the plugin ZIP.<\/li>\n
- Activate Popo Reviews. WooCommerce must also be installed and active.<\/li>\n
- Open Popo Reviews > Settings and configure the display and review options you want to use.<\/li>\n
- Make sure WooCommerce product reviews and ratings are enabled.<\/li>\n
- If you want delivery-triggered review requests, connect a compatible delivery source such as Popo Order Track. Core review functionality does not require that integration.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n
No license key or external Popo account is required.<\/p>\n\n\n
\nDoes Popo Reviews require a license key or Popo account?<\/h3><\/dt>\nNo. The WordPress.org release is free and licensed under GPLv2 or later. All included functionality is available after activation.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Where are reviews stored?<\/h3><\/dt>\nReview text and ratings use native WordPress\/WooCommerce comment storage. Popo-specific review information is stored in comment metadata, and uploaded review images\/videos are stored in the WordPress Media Library.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Will my reviews disappear if I deactivate Popo Reviews?<\/h3><\/dt>\nNo. Native review text, ratings, and WooCommerce comment data remain in WordPress. Some Popo-specific presentation and automation features will not run while the plugin is inactive.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Does the plugin send data to Popo servers?<\/h3><\/dt>\nNo telemetry is sent to Popo servers. Review-request emails are sent through the WordPress\/WooCommerce mail environment configured by the store.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Does Popo Reviews require Popo Order Track?<\/h3><\/dt>\nNo. Product review display, collection, moderation, import\/export, manual review invitations, and other core functions can be used independently. Popo Order Track is only an optional local integration for delivery-triggered automation.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Can customers receive a reward for leaving a review?<\/h3><\/dt>\nYes, if the store administrator enables rewards. Reward eligibility can depend on whether a review contains text, photos, or video, but it does not depend on whether the customer leaves a positive or negative star rating.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
1.0.0<\/h4>\n\n\n- WordPress.org review fixes: strengthened nonce\/upload validation, sanitized requester-provided filenames, included human-readable JavaScript source, and removed unnecessary WordPress core includes.<\/li>\n
- Completed the all-category Plugin Check performance audit: reduced repeated Flow integrity scans, cached reward-conversion source IDs, and documented bounded\/required meta queries with narrow PHPCS annotations.<\/li>\n
- Reworked Activity Logs filtering to use a fully static prepared SQL structure with no interpolated WHERE fragments.<\/li>\n
- Plugin Check error-level cleanup: identifier-safe prepared SQL, ordered translation placeholders, and narrowly documented CSV stream operations.<\/li>\n
- Added translator comments for localized strings with printf-style placeholders to satisfy WordPress internationalization checks.<\/li>\n
- New eligible WooCommerce orders automatically enter the review Flow and show Awaiting shipment until Popo Order Track creates a shipment.<\/li>\n
- Cancelled, fully refunded, and failed orders automatically leave the active Flow and cancel pending review-request actions; partial refunds remain in Flow.<\/li>\n
- Automatic exits are retained as audit history in the Exited view and can only re-enter through an explicit administrator action.<\/li>\n
- Hardened multi-shipment, duplicate Delivered, cancellation, retry, and already-sent guards so stale events cannot create duplicate invitations.<\/li>\n
- Added a privacy-minimal event ledger with database-enforced unique event keys so repeated hooks cannot store the same review automation event twice.<\/li>\n
- Dashboard delivery, scheduling, sent-request and invited-review metrics now count unique order or review IDs, and repeated reward-conversion hooks preserve the original conversion time.<\/li>\n
- Added 30, 60 and 90 day Review automation filters shared by the main Dashboard and Review Requests page; Waiting in flow remains the live current queue.<\/li>\n
- Clarified the Review automation heading: performance metrics cover the last 30 days while Waiting in flow is the current queue.<\/li>\n
- Added an explanatory note below Conversion clarifying that it is the percentage of sent review requests that produced reviews.<\/li>\n
- Replaced the duplicate Review Requests summary cards with the same Review automation panel used on the main Dashboard; the detailed Flow table remains below it.<\/li>\n
- Reward orders now count only new WooCommerce orders that actually used a Popo Reviews reward coupon, not coupons that were merely issued.<\/li>\n
- The Rewarded orders tab now contains only source Flow orders with a verified reward-coupon redemption and shows the linked new order, status, value, date and coupon.<\/li>\n
- Added one-time legacy Review Request Flow status normalization so upgraded stores and fresh installs use the same concrete request-status schema.<\/li>\n
- Blank\/missing legacy statuses are inferred from sent\/scheduled\/trigger\/delivery data and saved as standard statuses before dashboard counts are shown.<\/li>\n
- Large legacy stores hide dashboard metrics while bounded normalization is incomplete instead of displaying potentially incorrect values.<\/li>\n
- Fixed Manual order actions search for custom\/sequential displayed order numbers that differ from WooCommerce database order IDs.<\/li>\n
- Manual order search now explains when a matching order is hidden by the current date, delivery or flow-membership filter.<\/li>\n
- Fixed Waiting orders whose request-status meta exists with an empty value; Waiting counts and rows now use the same explicit + empty + missing-status union.<\/li>\n
- Historical skipped orders remain visible in All but are no longer counted as Needs attention because they were intentionally skipped by the historical-order protection rule.<\/li>\n
- Fixed Waiting counts for flow members without a request status so the Waiting metric, Waiting tab count and Waiting tab rows stay consistent.<\/li>\n
- Flow-only Waiting orders are derived with positive meta queries and PHP subtraction instead of a large-store NOT EXISTS query.<\/li>\n
- Unified Review Request dashboard status definitions so tab counts, tab rows and row state badges use the same Waiting and Needs attention rules.<\/li>\n
- Waiting now includes awaiting completion and legacy awaiting shipment states; delivery reopened is classified as Needs attention; already reviewed is no longer treated as an error state.<\/li>\n
- Rewarded orders now use one canonical reward-linked, existing-flow-order ID set for both counts and pagination.<\/li>\n
- Renamed the metric to Rewarded orders to reflect that it counts unique orders, not raw coupon records.<\/li>\n
- Fixed an HPOS rewarded-count regression where include + paginate could report the full store order total instead of actual rewarded orders.<\/li>\n
- Rewarded counts now use the distinct reward-linked order IDs directly and search them in bounded ID-only chunks.<\/li>\n
- Switched the storefront rating summary to container-query responsive sizing so narrow product columns remain correctly aligned even on wide screens.<\/li>\n
- Optimized the Review Request Dashboard for large order stores by removing expensive flow-membership OR meta queries, avoiding duplicate selected-tab counts, and loading only the current page of rewarded orders.<\/li>\n
- Changed Customer Photos items from theme-styled buttons to plugin-owned accessible gallery elements.<\/li>\n
- Frontend and admin assets use file-modification cache-busting so updated styles and scripts load immediately.<\/li>\n
- Isolated Customer Photos gallery buttons and images from theme CSS so gallery tiles keep consistent square dimensions across themes.<\/li>\n
- Improved the product-review score and histogram layout across desktop, tablet and mobile widths.<\/li>\n
- Hardened storefront review-gallery media sizing against theme button CSS so uploaded images stay square.<\/li>\n
- Improved the stacked admin-media +N badge with a high-contrast count indicator.<\/li>\n
- Admin review media now stacks thumbnails when a customer uploads more than two images, preventing review-table layout overflow.<\/li>\n
- Review Request Dashboard now defaults to 5 rows per page, with 5\/10\/20\/50 row options.<\/li>\n
- Removed the Version history panel from Email Flow.<\/li>\n
- Initial public release of Popo Reviews.<\/li>\n
- Collect, manage, moderate, import, export and display WooCommerce product reviews.<\/li>\n
- Supports photo and video reviews, verified review invitations, review-request automation and optional review rewards.<\/li>\n
- Includes Review Requests, Email Flow, Logs, Settings, Shortcodes and Help admin workspaces.<\/li>\n
- Includes configurable review moderation with Manual approval, Auto approve verified reviews and Auto approve all valid reviews.<\/li>\n
- Includes privacy tools, uninstall cleanup, WooCommerce HPOS compatibility and WordPress.org release hardening.<\/li>\n
- Optimized Dashboard automation queries for large WooCommerce stores by removing expensive multi-EXISTS OR and NOT EXISTS order-meta scans.<\/li>\n<\/ul>","raw_excerpt":"Photo and video product reviews for WooCommerce with verified purchases, review requests, rewards, and native review storage.","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ku.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin\/366597","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ku.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ku.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/plugin"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ku.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=366597"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ku.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wporg\/v1\/users\/popomasterstudio"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ku.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=366597"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"plugin_section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ku.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_section?post=366597"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ku.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_tags?post=366597"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ku.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_category?post=366597"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_contributors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ku.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_contributors?post=366597"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_business_model","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ku.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_business_model?post=366597"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
