Easily organize and display reviews in different languages with the multilingual review sorting feature in Judge.me. This feature allows your customers to view reviews in their preferred language, improving accessibility and user experience.
How it works
For stores with one language
If your store supports one language, once you've enabled language sorting:
We'll automatically detect the language of each review. You can manually update the detected language if needed.
In your Review Widget, reviews will be split into two clear sections:
The top section shows reviews in your store’s default language.
The Reviews in Other Languages section shows all other reviews.
For example, if your store’s default language is English, the Review Widget will show English reviews first. Reviews in Japanese, French, or Spanish will be grouped together under Reviews in Other Languages further down the Review Widget.
For stores with multiple languages
If your store supports multiple languages, once you've enabled language sorting:
We'll automatically detect the language of each review. You can manually update the detected language if needed.
We'll also detect each visitor’s language.
In your Review Widget, reviews will be split into two clear sections:
The top section shows reviews in your customer's language.
The Reviews in Other Languages section shows all other reviews.
For example, if a customer is browsing the Italian version of your store, the Review Widget will show Italian reviews first. Reviews in Japanese, French, or Spanish will be grouped together under Reviews in Other Languages further down the Review Widget.
Considerations
Language detection may take up to 48 hours to process your reviews.
Country-specific language variations are not supported (e.g., zh-CN for Simplified Chinese, zh-TW for Traditional Chinese, pt-BR for Brazilian Portuguese).
Language sorting does not apply to reviews synced through Product Groups and Cross-Shop Syndication.
The Testimonials Carousel, Video Carousel, and Cards Carousel also support language sorting.
Reviews in your store's default language will appear first, followed by reviews in other languages as shoppers scroll through the carousel.
Set up your review language sorting
To enable review language sorting:
From your Judge.me admin, go to Settings > Language.
Scroll down to the Widgets and translations section.
In the Widgets and translations section, click the checkbox next to "Show reviews in the customer’s language first".
If your store supports multiple languages, make sure to also set up multilanguage widgets.
Click Save.
