I have received new reviews on my Goolge My Business Profile, but it doens’t show up in the widget yet. Does the widget update and show new reviews automatically, and if so, what is the update timeframe? Thank you! ---

Hey Darius 👋 The new reviews don’t appear straightaway because of the 48-hours cache time. Our widgets use cache to make it load faster and to reduce the server load, so it doesn’t request review source each time someone browses your feed. If it’s been more than 48 hours, and the reviews didn’t appear, please provide me with the direct link to the page with the issue. I’ll be happy to check everything for you 😉 ---

Hey Max, does this cache time work the other way - so if a review is deleted from a google account, the review will also be removed from the feed within/after the 48 hours? ---

Same problem here. I’ll wait some more time and then I’ll possibly ask for a manual update. I have 12 reviews, only two show. ---

Hi @Sergio_Longhi 👋 As mentioned above, the new reviews don’t appear in the widget right away because of the cache. However, the cache time is 72 hours now. If it’s been more than 72 hours and the new reviews still didn’t appear, please share a direct link to the page where your widget is installed. I’ll be happy to look into this for you 🙂
