Hi,

Finnish is already supported in this plugin, but you need to set it as a main language in your WordPress (in wp-admin page Settings / General, field Site Language).

Thanks!

Hi,

We’re disappointed that you didn’t even bother to read our support response, where it was described in detail why this is not supported by Google (NOT THE PLUGIN), so I’ll duplicate this response below, maybe it will helpful to other users.

Here is your Place ID of your Google location: ChIJE9T6fzq6TSMRyxNir9nEvmc.

The plugin uses official public Google Places API (not crawler) to get reviews and URL for that API is:

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/details/json?placeid=ChIJE9T6fzq6TSMRyxNir9nEvmc&key=API_KEY

Just replace in this URL API_KEY to your own and you see that instead of reviews you get error message (screenshot below). But if you add the physical address to this Google place, the API URL above will return the reviews.

Hi,

It’s a joke?

We sometimes have 2-3 new releases per week. Over the past six months, several new themes have appeared, including slider and grid. Lots of new features. Haven’t you looked at the ‘Advanced View’ section?

Thanks!

Hi,

It should be fixed.

Thanks!

Hi,

I just checked your API key in the Google request:

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/details/json?placeid=<PLACE_ID>&key=<API_KEY&gt;

And it’s still restricted, I got the error message:

“error_message” : “API keys with referer restrictions cannot be used with this API.”

Thanks!

Hi,

You need to edit this reviews widget in wp-admin (page Google Reviews / Widgets) and turn off the option Style Options / Dark background.

Thanks!

Hi,

Yes, it’s a good reason to add this in the next release. Ok, so I think it will be available in the next version 3.3.

Thanks!

Hi,

It’s not the option of the free plugin, it was in the business version, but not at the moment.

It’s not an option of the business plugin since 2019 due Google’s limitation. According to the changes in Sep 2019, Google forbidden a LocalBusiness and Organisation schema type in the Rich Snippets for all sites except a listing/directory-sites (like Yelp or Facebook), according to this it’s not possible to use in the business plugin.

Here is a source:

https://webmasters.googleblog.com/2019/09/making-review-rich-results-more-helpful.html

Also Google disallows using other schema types like Product, Book or Recipe for Google map reviews. Because these types should be described about a specific item, not reviews for a company, service or some business.

However, some other plugins have such a workaround, I mean use a Product schema type for a map reviews, unfortunately, Google can mark the page with this markup like a spammy rating and drop from a search. We can’t take that risk and didn’t add this workaround to our plugin.

Thanks!
