A product with hundreds of reviews doesn’t need to load them all at once — ReviewX lets you set how many reviews show per page before pagination or “load more” kicks in, both as a site-wide default and per shortcode/widget/block instance.
Setting the site-wide default
- Go to ReviewX → Reviews → Widget Settings.
- Set Reviews Per Page to the number you want (1–100).
- Click Save.
This default applies everywhere ReviewX displays a review list — the storefront widget, shortcodes, widgets, and blocks — unless overridden individually.
Overriding it for one instance
Every review-list shortcode, Classic Widget, and Gutenberg block accepts its own per_page value, which takes priority over the global default. For example:
[rvx-review-list product_id="128" per_page="5"]See the [rvx-review-list] shortcode reference for the full parameter list.
Why set this per instance
A sidebar widget usually wants a short list (3–5 reviews) while a dedicated reviews tab on the product page can comfortably show more. Setting a lower site-wide default and raising it only where you need a longer list is usually the better trade-off for page load speed.
