## Description

**Show Facebook reviews and X (Twitter) posts on your WordPress site — in a beautiful
review slider or grid.**

WP Review Slider helps you turn Facebook Page reviews, Facebook recommendations,
and positive X (formerly Twitter) posts into on-site **testimonials** and **social
proof**. Reviews are downloaded once, stored in your WordPress database, and served
from your own server for fast page loads.

This plugin uses the **official Facebook API** and the **X API v2** — not scraping
or crawling. That means a more reliable, compliant way to display customer feedback
on your WordPress site.

### Why use WP Review Slider?

 * Display **Facebook reviews** and **Facebook recommendations** with a shortcode,
   widget, or template function.
 * Search and download **X (Twitter) posts** about your business, then show them
   next to your Facebook reviews.
 * Build an engaging **review slider** (or a responsive grid/list) without writing
   code.
 * Keep reviews on your server for better performance and control.
 * Create multiple review templates for different pages, posts, and sidebars.

Here’s a quick video demonstration of adding reviews in less than 2 minutes!

### Facebook reviews & recommendations

Facebook switched many pages from a 1–5 star scale to Positive or Negative recommendations.
WP Review Slider can save those recommendations with a rating value so you can still
display them as **5-star reviews** when you want.

**How Facebook reviews work:**
 1. Connect to our Facebook app with a couple of 
button clicks. 2. Click Retrieve Reviews to download Facebook Page reviews and recommendations
into your WordPress database. 3. Create a review template and paste the shortcode
into a post, page, or widget area.

### X (formerly Twitter) posts & testimonials

Search X for posts mentioning your business, download the ones you want to showcase,
and display them in the same **review slider** / template system as your Facebook
reviews.

**How X (Twitter) posts work:**
 1. Enter your X Developer OAuth 1.0a keys (Consumer
Key, Consumer Key Secret, Access Token, Access Token Secret). A Bearer Token can
be used as a fallback. 2. Search with the X API v2 (recent search covers the last
7 days; full-archive search is available if your X access allows it). 3. Click the
download icon next to posts you want to keep. 4. In template Filter settings, choose
Review Type: Facebook, X (Twitter), or both — then pick a source and display them
with your shortcode.

**Note:** X’s Free developer tier does not include post search. You need a paid 
X API plan (for example Pay Per Use) with Recent Search access. Spaces in search
queries mean AND; use OR (example: `Yellowhammer OR Huntsville`) when you want either
term.

### Feature list

 * Download Facebook Page reviews and recommendations; store them locally for fast
   loading.
 * Official Facebook API connection (no illegal scraping).
 * Search and download X (Twitter) posts via X API v2 (OAuth 1.0a preferred; Bearer
   Token fallback).
 * Create a review slider — or use a responsive grid / list layout.
 * Show Facebook recommendations as stars or as positive/negative recommendations.
 * Mix Facebook and X (Twitter) in one template, or filter by review type and source.
 * Multiple templates for posts, pages, and widget areas.
 * Shortcode, PHP template function, or WordPress widget display.
 * Customize stars, dates, icons (including the X logo), avatars, border radius,
   colors, and fonts.
 * Choose reviews per row, multiple rows, newest or random order.
 * Hide reviews or posts without text.
 * Live template preview with Style / General / Filter / Badge tabs.
 * Optional review badge beside your slider.
 * Add custom CSS for advanced styling.

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or install it
    from **Plugins  Add New** on WordPress.org.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress.
 3. Open the **WP Reviews** menu in your admin.
 4. Download Facebook reviews and/or X (Twitter) posts, create a template, then paste
    the shortcode into a page or post.

## FAQ

### Are Facebook reviews stored on my server?

Yes. After you download reviews from Facebook, they are saved in your WordPress 
database. Your site displays those stored reviews locally instead of calling Facebook
on every page view, which helps pages load faster.

### Does this plugin use the official Facebook API?

Yes. WP Review Slider connects through the official Facebook API. It does not use
illegal scraping or crawling methods that some other review plugins rely on.

### Can I show Facebook recommendations as star ratings?

Yes. Facebook now uses Positive and Negative recommendations instead of 1–5 stars
for many pages. This plugin includes a setting to save recommendations with a rating
value so you can display them with star ratings (great for a review slider or testimonials
section).

### Can I display X (formerly Twitter) posts as testimonials?

Yes. Add your X Developer OAuth 1.0a keys (Consumer Key, Consumer Key Secret, Access
Token, Access Token Secret), search X, download posts, then set the template Review
Type to **X (Twitter)** or **Facebook & X (Twitter)**. A Bearer Token can be used
as a fallback. The plugin uses X API v2 recent search (last 7 days). Free X developer
access does not include search — a paid plan with Recent Search is required. Full-
archive search needs higher-tier access.

### Why don’t my X search results match what I expect?

X search treats spaces as **AND** (all words must appear in the same post). Try 
a single keyword, an OR query (example: `BrandName OR City`), or an exact phrase
in quotes. Recent search only covers the last 7 days.

### Can I put Facebook and X posts in the same review slider?

Yes. In template Filter settings, set Review Type to **Facebook & X (Twitter)**,
or choose one type and optionally limit by source.

### Can I filter which reviews are displayed?

Yes. Create multiple templates with different settings, including review type, source,
hide-without-text, display order, and how many reviews appear per row.

### How do I request a new feature?

 [bsaires](https://profiles.wordpress.org/bsaires/) 3, Abril de 2026

I paid for the lifetime Pro plugin version, and loved how good it is for importing,
choosing and displaying reviews from different sources. Unfortunately the NitroPack
plugin was causing some issues with this plugin, and I am already committed to using
NitroPack, so after some back and forth with Josh trying to fix the issues on my
website (fast and helpful replies!) I eventually asked him for a refund on WP Slider
Pro, which he provided immediately, no questions asked. It didn't work out for me
but I highly recommend this company all the same!

 [wordmax](https://profiles.wordpress.org/wordmax/) 12, Payares de 2025

So easy to use. Find the place ID of the biz and import the reviews. Total control
over how reviews are shown. Only one complaint… after one of the version updates
of this plugin, the next time we ran the 'get reviews' it imports duplicates, which
is time consuming to remove dupes. Would be nice if dev fixed that particular issue.
It still deserves 5 stars, though. Awesome plugin! 👍
