Testimonials widget

The Testimonials widget lets you display customer testimonials, reviews, ratings, profile images, and customer information in a structured and visually consistent way.

Testimonials can be displayed as a grid, list, or slider, making the widget useful for everything from a small group of customer quotes to larger testimonial sections that visitors can browse through.

Each testimonial can include:

  • Review text
  • Star rating
  • Customer image
  • Name
  • Title or role

This article explains how to add and manage testimonials, choose a layout, and customize the appearance of the widget.

Testimonials

The main Testimonials section contains all testimonials currently added to the widget.

From here, you can:

  • Add new testimonials
  • Edit existing testimonials
  • Reorder testimonials
  • Delete testimonials

Add a testimonial

Click Add to create a new testimonial.

You can then enter the content and information you want to display for that customer.

Edit a testimonial

Click the settings icon next to a testimonial to edit it.

Each testimonial includes the following fields.

Review

Enter the customer's testimonial or review.

For example:

This product has saved us so much time and completely changed the way we work.

💡 Tip

Testimonials are usually most effective when they are specific and describe a real result, experience, or transformation rather than simply saying that something was "great."

Rating / Score

Select the star rating you want to display with the testimonial.

This provides a quick visual indication of the customer's rating alongside their written review.

User image

Upload an image of the person providing the testimonial.

Customer photos can make testimonials feel more personal and credible.

For the most consistent design, use images with:

  • Similar proportions
  • Similar framing
  • Good image quality
  • A clearly visible person

Name

Enter the name of the person providing the testimonial.

For example:

Lisa Wright

Title / role

Use Title / role to provide additional information about the person.

For example:

  • Founder
  • Business Coach
  • Course Creator
  • CEO, Company Name
  • Member since 2025

This field is optional but can add useful context and credibility to the testimonial.

Reorder testimonials

Use the drag handle next to a testimonial to change its position.

Drag testimonials up or down to control the order in which they appear.

This is especially useful if you want your strongest or most relevant testimonials to appear first.

Delete a testimonial

Click the trash icon to remove a testimonial from the widget.

Styling

The Styling settings control how testimonials are arranged and how the testimonial cards look.

Layout

Choose how the testimonials are displayed.

Available layouts:

  • Grid
  • List
  • Slider

Grid

Displays multiple testimonials in a structured grid.

This works well when you want visitors to see several testimonials at the same time.

List

Displays testimonials in a vertical list.

This is useful for longer testimonials or pages where you want each review to have more space.

Slider

Displays testimonials in an interactive slider.

A slider is particularly useful when you have several testimonials but want to keep the section compact.

💡 Tip

Choose the layout based on how much content each testimonial contains. Short reviews work well in grids, while longer testimonials often benefit from a list or slider.

Slider Type

When Slider is selected, you can choose how the slider behaves.

Available options:

  • Single slide
  • Multiple slides
  • Auto rotate (no controls)

Single slide

Displays one testimonial at a time.

This gives each testimonial maximum attention and works particularly well for longer or more detailed reviews.

Multiple slides

Displays several testimonials at the same time.

Visitors can browse through groups of testimonial cards while still seeing multiple reviews together.

Auto rotate (no controls)

Automatically rotates through the testimonials without displaying manual slider controls.

This creates a more passive, continuously changing testimonial section.

💡 Tip

Auto rotation works best with relatively short testimonials. If visitors need more time to read longer reviews, manual navigation is usually easier to use.

Items per row

Controls how many testimonial cards are displayed next to each other where the selected layout supports multiple items.

For example, setting this to 3 displays three testimonial cards across the row.

The appropriate number depends on:

  • Available page width
  • Length of the testimonials
  • Size of customer images
  • Overall page design

Remember to check the result on both desktop and mobile.

Theme

The Theme setting lets you choose the overall visual theme used for the testimonial cards.

Choose a theme that works well with the background and overall design of the surrounding section.

Text Font Family

Controls the font family used within the Testimonials widget.

For consistency, it is usually best to use the same font family as the rest of your website.

Card background

Controls the background color of the testimonial cards.

Choose a color that:

  • Fits your website design
  • Provides sufficient contrast with the text
  • Helps the cards stand out from the surrounding section when needed

For consistency, use colors from your website's Global Colors whenever possible.

Text Color

Controls the color of the text inside the testimonial cards.

Make sure there is sufficient contrast between the text and the selected Card background.

Common use cases

The Testimonials widget works particularly well for:

  • Sales pages
  • Landing pages
  • Home pages
  • Course and program pages
  • Membership offers
  • Coaching services
  • Product pages
  • Signup and checkout sections

Testimonials are often particularly effective close to sections where visitors are evaluating an offer or deciding whether to take the next step.

Best practices

  • Use real testimonials from real customers
  • Prioritize specific results and experiences over generic praise
  • Include a name and image when you have permission to do so
  • Add a title or role when it provides useful context
  • Put your strongest and most relevant testimonials first
  • Keep card designs consistent
  • Avoid displaying too many long testimonials at once
  • Choose a layout that matches the length of your content
  • Check the section on both desktop and mobile

💡 Tip

A few strong, specific testimonials are often more convincing than a large number of generic ones. Focus on testimonials that address the questions, concerns, or desired outcomes of the audience viewing the page.
