How it works
Approving, step by step
Pending, approved, rejected
Three states and no ambiguity. A rejected testimonial is out of every widget immediately, and an approved one is still only served where its writer allowed.
Tags, for the ones that go together
By service, by location, by campaign. A widget or a wall can be pointed at a single tag.
Sort the list while you read it
Newest, oldest, highest rated, lowest rated, or most flagged first. That sorts the list in front of you; a widget's own order — newest, oldest, highest rated or shuffled — is set on the widget itself.
Safe by design
The rule that makes it safe to have
Clear boundaries
What it will not do
Every capability page ends with this list. It is the part that says what you are actually buying.
- It will not publish without you.
- It will not hide a bad rating from you.
- It will not reorder your wall on its own to put the best ones first.

Questions
Asked about this
From Help, where every answer is written from the product as it runs.
Can I fix a typo in a testimonial?
No. There is no route in this product — no dashboard control, no API field, no administrator, no support request — that can change a testimonial's text. That is the rule the whole product is built around, and it is checked in code rather than promised in a policy.
Then what do I do about a phone number somebody left in it?
Remove that span. The span becomes [removed], every other character stays exactly as written, and the reader is told something was taken out. If the proposal differs from the original by a single word anywhere else, the whole proposal is discarded rather than applied.
Can I shorten a long testimonial for a widget?
Not by storing a shorter version: nothing here can keep a cut-down copy as though it were what somebody wrote. What a layout may do is show less of it — the compact, marquee, toast and sidebar layouts stop a long testimonial at six lines, and there is no control that opens the rest. Every other layout shows the whole of it, so the choice to make here is the layout.
A customer asked me to take theirs down. What happens?
Delete it, and it is out of every widget, wall, image and API answer at once — a real delete, the record and the files both. There is no archive here: a testimonial is pending, approved or rejected, and once it is approved the dashboard's own way to take it off your pages is Delete. Reject is the button while it is still pending.
