    Embed Google Reviews?

    Hi,

    Does anyone have code they have used to embed their google reviews on their site? Not really into subscribing to yet another service. Not looking for a lot of bells and whistles.

    Thanks in advance!

    There isn't really an easy way to do this (last time i checked). First, you need to get an API Key from google devs. Next, you can create a url call that will return the reviews, but they will be in JSON so you'd have to parse that out into human reading. its something a dev familiar with the google dev api system could probably do in short order. but, for example, it'd probably take me an hour to remember how to and to get the API dev key setup :)

      mstella1 I believe Bruce is correct on the Google Reviews implementation.

      You could also implement Product Reviews by Tess, https://apps.miva.com/product-reviews-1148.html, module. It is a free module and takes minimal code to get started.

      Plus it has a number of API functions that allow you to customize down the road if that was something that was needed.

        Mike, did you ever get this figured out? I've got a store owner with a boatload of Google Reviews in his Business Profile (which seems to be a different set of reviews than the Store ratings - he has none of those)

          Kinda-Sorta :)

          I found a widget that we love and took 20 minutes to setup the way we liked it. Very customizable as well. There is a small monthly fee but worth it based on how we use it.

          Hope this helps
