How Verified Product Reviews Work in Judgeme for WooCommerce

When you see a “0% Verified” badge on judgeme product reviews, it indicates that none of the reviews for that product come from verified customers.

Here’s how the verified badge works:

How Verification Works :

WooCommerce Integration : When a customer leaves a review, the system checks if they actually purchased the product through your WooCommerce store.
Purchase Verification : Only reviews from customers who bought the product through WooCommerce are marked as “verified” purchases.
Percentage Calculation : The system counts total reviews vs verified reviews to display the percentage (e.g., “3 out of 5 reviews verified = 60% Verified”).
Display Logic : The badge appears when the “Show Verified Badge” setting is enabled in the plugin admin panel.

Why You Might See 0% Verified :

No Verified Reviews : Either no customers have left reviews after purchasing, or the verification system isn’t detecting purchases properly
Guest Reviews : Reviews from non-logged-in users or users who didn’t purchase through WooCommerce
Manual Reviews : Reviews added through admin that aren’t linked to actual orders
Test Reviews : Reviews created during development or testing phases

How to Control Verification Display :

Admin Panel : Navigate to Products > Judgeme
Toggle Setting : Use the “Show Verified Badge” checkbox to control visibility
Automatic Updates : The percentage updates automatically as verified reviews are added

Why Verification Matters :

The verification system helps customers trust reviews by showing which ones come from real customers versus potentially fake or unverified reviews. This builds credibility and helps customers make informed purchasing decisions based on authentic customer experiences.
