Updates
Updates are free. When a new version is out, it appears in Dashboard › Updates of your WordPress site and you can install it in one click, or turn on automatic updates in Plugins. This works for the zip downloaded from your Woo-Plugins account; older copies can be replaced by downloading the latest version from My plugins. See the changelog.
Frequently asked questions
Do clients need an account?
No. They open the link, fill in the form and send it. No account, no app.
Where are videos stored?
In your own Media Library. Keep videos short (60 seconds by default) to save disk space; you can change the limit in Settings.
The collection page shows "Page not found"
Go to Settings › Permalinks and click Save Changes once.
Will Google show star ratings for these testimonials?
Google does not show review stars for reviews a business collects and publishes about itself, so Praisewall does not promise rich results.
