Solid Testimonials shows what your customers say about you. Add each testimonial once with the reviewer’s photo, name, company, job title and star rating, then display them anywhere as a testimonial slider or grid. Pick a design in the shortcode builder, see it in the live preview, and paste one shortcode or block.

Real reviews from real customers are one of the easiest ways to build trust on a homepage, landing page, pricing page or product page.

How it works

  1. Go to Solid Testimonials > Add New. Add the testimonial text, the reviewer’s photo as the featured image, and their name, company, job title and rating.
  2. Go to Solid Testimonials > Shortcode, create a shortcode and pick a view and design. The live preview updates as you change settings.
  3. Copy the shortcode, for example [gs_testimonial id=1], into any page or post, or use the Solid Testimonials block or widget in your page builder.

Each shortcode has three tabs:

  • General: view, design, image size and style, columns per device, which details to show, review length and carousel settings.
  • Style: colors for the box, text, reviewer details, ratings and “Read more” links, plus carousel arrows and dots.
  • Query: how many testimonials to show, sorting, and which categories, tags and authors to include or exclude.

Under Preferences you can change the “Read more” text and add custom CSS.

Shortcode usage

[gs_testimonial id=1]

<?php echo do_shortcode( '[gs_testimonial id=1]' ); ?>
