Auto-Publish Reviews
If you want to vet and verify the content before a review is published, you can choose what kinds of reviews automatically appear on your product pages.
Click Settings in the sidebar menu
Click Review Moderation
Under Auto Publish New Reviews, choose from one of the options:
All - Automatically publish any new reviews
5-star reviews - Only auto-publish 5-star reviews
4-star above - Only auto-publish 4-star reviews or higher
3-star above - Only auto-publish 3-star reviews or higher
Never - You will need to publish reviews manually from the Reviews section of the app.
Manually Publish and Unpublish Reviews
You'll need to manually publish a review if it did not meet the criteria for auto-publishing, or if you have chosen to never auto-publish reviews. In case you prefer to hide any review that has been already published on your product page, you can choose to unpublish the content.
Click Reviews in the sidebar menu
Search for the review you want to show on your Widget and click Publish. The status will change after a few seconds.
If you want to hide the review, click Unpublish.
