## How to Connect Google Business Reviews

1. In your WordPress admin sidebar, navigate to **ReviewX → Google Review**.
2. Under the **Configuration** tab, you will see the **Google Business reviews** setup panel **\[1\]**.
3. Enter your credentials:
   - **Google API Key:** Enter your Google Cloud Places API key. Ensure the Places API (New) is enabled in your Google Cloud Console.
   - **Google Place ID or URL:** Enter your unique Google Maps Place ID or paste your public Google Maps business profile URL.
4. Click the blue **Connect** button at the bottom right.

## Displaying Google Reviews on Your Store

Once connected, navigate to the **Widget settings** tab within the Google Review screen. Here you can configure how imported Google reviews are displayed across your site — including rating thresholds (e.g. show only 4-star and 5-star Google feedback) and layout themes.
