Can I translate the Yotpo widget and the Mail After Purchase emails?

We offer translation of our reviews widget and Mail After Purchase emails into many languages.

To add more languages to the supported ones, please contact us at support@yotpo.com, and note the language you would like to have Yotpo translated to. This is a very easy process and we are happy to accomodate all languages.

How do I stop my reviews from automatically posting to my shop? I want to decide which reviews to publish and which to hide.

To turn off auto publishing, just log into yotpo.com, and click on the “Moderate”. On the “Moderate” page just uncheck the “Website” box, and reviews will no longer be automatically published. You’ll be emailed each time you receive a new review, and be able to publish only the ones you’d like published.

New reviews don’t automatically show up on my shop. How can I set my reviews to auto publish?

To turn on auto publishing, just log into yotpo.com, and click on “Moderate”. Here, on the left hand panel towards the bottom, just check the “Website” box, and reviews will now be automatically published.

How can I hide or delete a review?

To hide unwanted reviews, just log into your dashboard at yotpo.com, and click on “Moderate” from the options up top. Here you will be able to see all of your reviews. To hide a review, just click on the globe button with the down-pointing arrow. In addition, if you would like to delete reviews from your admin page, just click on the “archive” button. This acts as a full delete button.

Unfortunately Yotpo doesn’t monitor support here. We’ve run into many fatal errors and it’s been difficult to work with their code.

Have used Yotpo for several years. The hardest part is getting reviews from customers. But the features on Yotpo are great and we can syndecate them across other sales channels outside of our webstore. Ruzsel J was super helpful in my MANY tech support questions today.
