OPENHUB TESTIMONIALS

Collect feedback in their own words.

Let customers submit testimonials directly on your website, moderate submissions before publication, and display approved experiences without copying or rewriting what people said.

Free Edition Version 1.3.3 WordPress 6.0+ PHP 8.0+

What it does

OpenHub Testimonials gives visitors a direct way to submit feedback while keeping publication under the website owner's control.

Direct submissions

Visitors submit their own testimonial, name, role, organisation and optional photo directly from the website.

Moderation first

New testimonials remain pending until the website owner reviews and publishes them.

Original wording preserved

The submitter's original testimonial is stored separately and used for public display.

Easy sharing

Share the submission page through WhatsApp, email, LinkedIn, Copy Link or the phone's native share sheet.

Scales with growth

Responsive cards and pagination keep testimonial pages manageable even as the number of testimonials grows.

WordPress updates

Version 1.3.3 supports direct update checks from the OpenHub Plugins portal, including support for WordPress auto-updates.
