Display Yelp Business Reviews on Your WordPress Site in Under 2 Minutes — Fast, Local & Built for Conversions.

WP Yelp Review Slider downloads your Yelp business reviews (including reviewer avatars and customer-uploaded review photos) and stores them directly in your WordPress database (utf8mb4 emoji-ready) on your own server. Instead of slowing down your site with external API calls on every page load, your site serves Yelp reviews locally for instant loading, better Core Web Vitals, and full page-caching support.

Whether you run a restaurant, local service business, salon, auto shop, dental/medical practice, or multi-location company, displaying verified 5-star Yelp reviews, customer photos, and a Yelp rating summary badge builds immediate social proof and helps turn website visitors into paying customers.

Why Choose WP Yelp Review Slider?

Multi-Location Yelp Support: Add multiple Yelp Business Page URLs on the Get Yelp Reviews page, download reviews for each location separately, and choose which Yelp business page each template displays.
Customer Review Photos & Lightbox: Automatically download photos attached to Yelp reviews and display them in a clickable full-size lightbox popup.
Yelp Summary Rating Badge: Place a customizable Yelp rating badge on the left, right, or above your reviews (or show the badge standalone) with your business name, photo, average star rating, review count, and “Review us on Yelp” button.
Built-In Review Analytics Dashboard: Track your average Yelp rating, 1-to-5 star breakdown, review volume timeline, rating trends over time, and positive/negative keyword word clouds right inside wp-admin.
Stored Locally on Your Server: Fast, reliable local database storage with zero third-party script lag on your front end.
