Troubleshoot


I've added the Reviews Carousel but only see its header

Issue:

You have added the Reviews Carousel block and you can see the "Let customers speak for us" and "from {{ n }} reviews" text, but no reviews are showing in the carousel.

Why it happens:

If you only see the Header of the Reviews Carousel, it's typically because app embed hasn't been enabled in your theme. Without it, the carousel can’t fully load.
