Installation
Minimum Requirements
- PHP 7.4 or greater is required (PHP 8.0 or greater is recommended)

Automatic installation
Automatic installation is the easiest option — WordPress will handle the file transfer, and you won’t need to leave your web browser. To do an automatic install of Review Follow-Up for WooCommerce, log in to your WordPress dashboard, navigate to the Plugins menu, and click “Add New.”
In the search field type “Review Follow-Up for WooCommerce,” then click “Search Plugins.” Once you’ve found the plugin, you can view details and install it by clicking “Install Now,” and WordPress will take it from there.
Manual installation
Manual installation requires downloading the plugin and uploading it to your web server via your favorite FTP application. The WordPress codex contains instructions on how to do this here.
Updating
Automatic updates should work smoothly, but we still recommend you back up your site.
If you encounter issues after an update, flush the permalinks by going to WordPress > Settings > Permalinks and hitting “Save.” That should return things to normal.
Frequently Asked Questions
The optimal timing is typically 7-14 days after delivery, allowing customers time to experience the product. You can customize this delay in the plugin settings to match your product type and customer journey.
Yes. Configure multiple follow-up emails with custom timing intervals (e.g., 3 days, 7 days later) to non-respondents, dramatically increasing your review collection rate.
