Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →
WP PlugIndex currently records VADware Reviews version 1.0.6 as active, updated 26d ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
VADware Reviews lets visitors leave star-rated testimonials on your site and gives you a complete admin workflow to moderate them before they go live.
Add the widget with the [vadware_reviews] shortcode or the VADware Reviews block — no coding required.
Front end
Continuous auto-play marquee, or a paged grid with previous/next arrows
Compact modal form for visitors: name, star rating, comment, optional photo
Rating summary (average + total count) shown above the widget
Fully responsive, keyboard accessible
Moderation
New reviews stay pending until approved (or auto-approve them in Settings)
Search, filter (status/rating), sort, and bulk-approve/unapprove/trash from the All Reviews screen
Soft-delete: trashed reviews are recoverable for 7 days before permanent removal
Dashboard widget with at-a-glance stats and one-click moderation
Email notification on every new submission, with a fully customizable HTML template and a one-click “Send test email” button to verify delivery
SEO
Optional Schema.org / JSON-LD structured data (SoftwareApplication or Product), so approved reviews are eligible for star rich results in Google search — without exposing them as self-serving business/organization reviews, which Google explicitly excludes from the star snippet
Developer friendly
Translation-ready (all strings run through the standard WordPress i18n functions)
Optional full cleanup on uninstall (reviews, settings, uploaded photos, and scheduled events), off by default so nothing is ever deleted by accident
No external services, no tracking, no phone-home requests
