Displaying the Widget on Your Storefront

Option 1: Using the Sabdov Plugin (Recommended)

The easiest way to display the Sabdov review widget in WooCommerce is by using our connector plugin. First, download the Sabdov WooCommerce plugin from the Settings > Integrations page in your Sabdov dashboard.

Plugin Installation Steps:

  1. Download the plugin .zip file from the Sabdov dashboard (the download link is located right next to the Read documentation link).
  2. Log in to your WordPress admin panel, then navigate to Plugins > Add New.
  3. Click Upload Plugin, choose the downloaded .zip file, click Install Now, and then activate the plugin.
  4. Go to the Settings > Sabdov Reviews menu in your WordPress admin sidebar.
  5. Enter your store's Widget Public Key (which can be copied from the Widget Public Key card under **Settings > API Access** in Sabdov) and click Save Settings.

The Sabdov review widget will now automatically render across all your WooCommerce product detail pages.

Option 2: Using a Page Builder (Elementor / Divi / etc.)

If you designed your WooCommerce store using page builders like Elementor Pro, you can manually place the widget using a custom HTML block.

Elementor Placement Steps:

  1. Open your Single Product Template in Elementor.
  2. Drag and drop the HTML or Shortcode widget to your preferred position (e.g., below Product Tabs).
  3. Paste the following custom HTML embed code:
Sabdov HTML Embed Code
<div class="sabdov-review-showcase" data-merchant-id="YOUR_WIDGET_PUBLIC_KEY" data-product-id="[wpbb post:id]"></div>
<script src="https://sabdov.com/widget.js" defer></script>
Tip: In the data-product-id attribute, you can use Elementor's native Dynamic Tags feature and select Post ID (since in WordPress, WooCommerce Product ID matches the Post ID).

Troubleshooting

Invalid URL Format+
Missing or Invalid API Keys−
Ensure that the Consumer Key and Secret have Read/Write permissions. In WooCommerce Settings > Advanced > REST API, check if the keys are revoked or if they belong to a user with limited access.
API Validation Failed (401 Unauthorized)+

Next step

Prepare your WooCommerce credentials, connect the store, and move into your first sync once the REST API connection is verified.
