Reviews

Two to four bordered cards, each with a row of stars, a quote and an attribution line. The quotes are typed into the theme editor — this is a curated selection, not a feed from a reviews app.

That is the right trade for a small catalogue. Four reviews you chose, each naming the piece it is about, do more than a widget averaging eleven ratings across the store.

Behaviour worth knowing

The column count follows your blocks, capped at four — three blocks give three columns, two give two. Below 860 px the cards stack into one column.

Stars are accessible. The star row carries a label reading “N out of 5”, so a screen reader gets the rating as a number rather than a run of symbols.

Cards fade up on scroll when the theme’s Motion setting is on, and render plainly when it is off or the visitor prefers reduced motion.

No structured data. These quotes do not emit review markup, so they will not produce star ratings in Google results. That is correct — they are editorially selected, not verified aggregate ratings, and marking them up as the latter would be misrepresenting them. If you want rich results, install a reviews app and let it handle both the data and the markup.

Tip

Put the product name in the attribution, as the default does: “K. Mbeki — Utility Jacket”. It turns a generic compliment into evidence about a specific piece, and a shopper deciding between two items can tell which review is relevant to them.

Caution

Use real quotes from real customers, with permission, and do not round a 4-star review up to 5. Fabricated reviews are a Theme Store rejection and, in most markets, a consumer-protection problem. If you have no reviews yet, delete the section until you do.

Note

For a per-product rating on the product page — which does come from an app’s data — see the Rating product block on the product page.
