I got an API key and tried to use the shortcode. Custom blocks don’t work with WP Page Builder which we use. However, short codes work great. The documentation on how to find the shortcode doesn’t match the plugin settings for the free version. If I can’t get the free version to work, not even considering the upgrade.

So I hate to be that guy and give a 1 star. But when it comes to this plugin. I have had trouble getting it set up. I was very confused by the instructions and hate to say this, but I will have to find an alternative method to show Yelp Reviews. I have not been able to find a video review for this plugin when I did the “View Details” and tried working on this for almost a half hour. I hate to give this 1-star, but I need to be honest.

Really loved this app and would change my review with an update that does not have the app saying it has exhausted its call limit to yelp for ever not resetting until you deactivate and reactivate the app.

What happened? Use to be an OK App, but now its horrible. Wont update saying I need new API… Someone had replied to a prior post but it had made zero sense.

I didn’t get very far with this plugin. When you install it, it asks for a Yelp API key, which I’m ok with. The link from settings to Yelp to create the API results in a 404 error. So I followed the link to the WordImpress site with instructions, and that explains how to create a Google Maps API key… which is not the same. The fields in the plugin ask for a Yelp API key, not google maps. I don’t even need a map. So I’m confused. Uninstall.

I had some conflicts between my theme and this plugin and I was ready to give up. After letting me know that I could get a refund if I wanted, I agreed to let them try a few things. They were able to work past the conflicts and get the plugin running smoothly.
