    We got a new review on Google two weeks ago. But this new review isn’t visible by clicking the review button on our site. How often is the plugin getting a refresh or is this a bug?

    Hi,

    Could you add new parameter into the shortcode ‘auto_load=true’. It will get the current 5 most helpful reviews from Google and update the current reviews.

    Please let me know how that goes.

    Thanks!

    Hi, I am on the free version and have the same problem. New reviews over a week old are not being picked up. How can this be remedied, please?

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    The plugin uses the Google Places API to get your reviews. The API only returns the 5 most helpful reviews (it’s a limitation of Google, not the plugin).

    You can check if there’re new reviews in the API by entering your place ID and API key in this url:

    https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/details/json?placeid=YOUR_PLACE_ID&key=YOUR_GOOGLE_API_KEY

    If you will find new reviews in this API, you need to Connect your place in the widget again and new reviews will appear in the plugin.

    Thanks!
