Troubleshoot


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

If you've added the Reviews Carousel block in your Shopify theme editor but only see the header (the “Let customers speak for us” and “from {{ n }} reviews” text) without any reviews showing, it’s usually because the Judge.me app embed is not enabled in your theme.

When the app embed is disabled, the carousel can’t fully load the reviews.

To fix this, make sure to enable the Judge.me app embed in your theme.


I don't see the Reviews Carousel block in the Apps tab

After clicking (+) Add section, if you don't see the Reviews Carousel block in the Apps tab of your Shopify theme editor, you're likely using a Vintage theme, since blocks are only available in Online Store 2.0 themes.

Follow the steps in the Adding Judge.me widgets in Vintage themes article to confirm your theme version and install the Reviews Carousel manually using Liquid code instead.
