# Set up the Testimonials Slider

This guide covers the full setup: adding testimonials, choosing a widget, and placing it on your store.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Free plan limits:** the widget displays up to 4 testimonials with Reputon branding. Widget customization (colors, fonts, etc.) is available on the Pro plan. If your widget already shows 4 testimonials, new ones will not appear until you upgrade. Deleting an existing testimonial will not display newly received ones.
{% endhint %}

### Step 1. Add testimonials

{% hint style="danger" %}
Manually created testimonials are not supported. According to [Shopify's review policies](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-sales-channels/shop/product-reviews/merchant-guidelines), reviews must come from real customers and cannot be written by the store owner or staff.
{% endhint %}

There are two ways to import real customer testimonials to the app:

1. **Import from third-party platforms.** Connect a platform where your customers already left reviews (Google, Trustpilot, Amazon, Etsy, and others) and import them in a few clicks.

{% hint style="success" %}
Import limits per content block:

* 20 from Google, Mercadolibre, and Yelp
* 30 from ResellerRatings and Tripadvisor
* 40 from Aliexpress
* 50 from Amazon, eBay, and Sitejabber
* 48 Etsy product reviews and 50 Etsy seller reviews
* 150 from a CSV file

**You can create up to 20 content blocks in the app.**
{% endhint %}

2. **Import from a CSV file.** Use this option to transfer your existing customer reviews from any other platform or app. Download the CSV template in the app, open it in Google Sheets, and fill in the columns exactly as shown in the template. To add a YouTube or TikTok video review, place the video link in the PICTUREURL column. Save the file in CSV format and upload it to the app.

Once the reviews are imported, they are added to Content Group #1.

### Step 2. Add the widget

Go to the main page of the app and select a widget layout: slider, carousel, cards, list, grid, etc.

{% hint style="warning" %}
YouTube and TikTok video reviews work only with the Cards, Carousel Cards, and Customer Story widgets. Text testimonials work with all widget types.
{% endhint %}

Click the **Add widget** button and choose the page where you want the widget to appear, and it will be added automatically.

After adding the widget, select the content block with the testimonials you want to display. To add a title above the widget, see [Add a title to Testimonials Slider](/reputon-help/testimonials-slider-app/how-to/add-a-title-to-testimonials-slider.md).&#x20;

To customize colors, fonts, and size, open the widget settings in the app. For advanced styling, see [How to customize widget style](/reputon-help/testimonials-slider-app/faq/how-to-customize-widget-style.md).

### Collect testimonials

Collect testimonials via a “Leave a Review” button, QR code, or link. Customize the form with your logo. Notifications about new reviews will arrive directly to your inbox. You can also enable the option to post new reviews automatically.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://reputon.gitbook.io/reputon-help/testimonials-slider-app/how-to/set-up-the-testimonials-slider.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
