To customize elements:

What you want to change

CSS code

To change the width of the Review Widget, usually if:

  • You want to add some space (padding or margin) between the Review Widget and the left/right edges of the page

  • The Review Widget is stretching across the full width of the page, causing the reviews to appear cut off on the right side.

This doesn't fix the width issue in these themes: Horizon, Savor, Fabric, Dwell, Tinker, Atelier, Vessel, Heritage, Ritual, Pitch).

#judgeme_product_reviews {
    width: 80%!important;
    margin: 0 auto!important;
}

To change the font size in the Review Widget

.jdgm-review-widget .jdgm-rev-widg {
    font-size: 10px;
}

To change the font color of the reviews in the Review Widget

#judgeme_product_reviews {
    color: black;
}

To change the color of the text input (when writing a review) in the Review Widget embedded form

.jdgm-form input:not([type="submit"]),
.jdgm-form textarea {
    color: black;
}

To prevent the Review Widget form from zooming automatically on iPhones

input, textarea {
    font-size: 16px !important;
}

To fix the issue where the dropdown arrow in the sorting method of the Review Widget is oversized and covers the text of the sorting method 

.jdgm-sort-dropdown {
   background: none;
}

To reduce the picture size in the Review Widget Cards theme

.jdgm-rev__pic-img {
    width: 50% !important;
}

Slider theme: To change the color of the Read More Reviews button in the Review Widget 

.jdgm-btn--dark {
    background: #2B5BBF;
    border-color: #2B5BBF;
}

Slider theme: To change the text color of the Read More Reviews button in the Review Widget 

.jdgm-btn--dark {
    color: white !important;
}

To change the font size of the Customer Reviews header

.jdgm-rev-widg__title {
    font-size: 40px !important;
}

To fix the Submit review button that doesn't look like a button in some themes 

.jdgm-submit-rev {
    border: 1px solid black !important;
    padding: 5px 10px !important;
}

To change the Write a review button style from solid to outlined

.jdgm-write-rev-link {
    background-color: transparent !important;
    border: 1px solid currentColor !important;
    color: #000000 !important;
}

Cards theme: To add more columns to the Review Widget

@media only screen and (min-width: 800px) { 
    .jdgm-rev.jdgm-rev { 
        width: calc(20% - 15px) !important; 
    } 
}

In general, divide 100% by the number of columns to get the right percentage. For example:

  • For 4 Columns: use 25%

  • For 5 Columns: use 20%

  • For 6 Columns: use 16%

  • For 7 Columns: use 15%

The pixel can go from 10 - 20px but you can leave it on 15 most of the time.

Cards theme: To place the review texts above the review image

.jdgm-rev__header {
    order: 1;
}
.jdgm-rev__content {
    order: 2;
}
.jdgm-rev__pics {
    order: 3;
}
.jdgm-rev__actions {
    order: 4;
}
