The GeoDirectory Embeddable Ratings Badge is a premium extension for the GeoDirectory WordPress plugin. It allows listing owners to generate a snippet of code to display their business’s live rating and review count from your directory onto their own third-party websites (similar to a TripAdvisor or Yelp badge).
This is EXACTLY the same product as distributed by the developer. Sales Page
Real-Time Sync: Displays live ratings and review counts pulled directly from your directory database.
SEO & Backlinks: Each badge includes a link back to the listing on your site, which helps generate natural backlinks and improves your directory’s SEO.
Customization (Admin & User):
Admin Controls: You can set “sane defaults” or lock specific design settings (like colors) to ensure all badges match your directory’s branding.
User Customization: If permitted, listing owners can adjust colors, sizes, and alignment via a front-end customizer before copying the code.
Font Awesome Integration: The script automatically detects if the destination site uses Font Awesome. If it does, it uses your exact icon styles; if not, it falls back to a lightweight HTML star icon to ensure compatibility.
Performance: Features a CDN (Content Delivery Network) option to serve the badge scripts quickly without taxing your main server.
When adding the “GD > Embed” widget to your listing pages, you have the following configuration options:
| Option | Description |
| Badge Text | Customizable text (e.g., “Review us on [Site Name]”). |
| Icon Class | Choose any Font Awesome icon to appear on the button. |
| Show To | Restrict visibility to: Everyone, Logged-in Users, or Listing Owners only. |
| Design Controls | Toggle whether users can change Background Color, Text Color, Size, and Alignment. |
| Border Settings | Adjust Border Color, Width, Radius (rounded corners), and Box Shadows. |
