Add Testimonials to Joomla

Joomla websites are often content-rich and flexible, but many struggle with one conversion blocker: trust.

Visitors may explore articles, services, or extensions, yet hesitate to enquire or buy. Without proof from real users, doubt slows decisions.

Testimonials solve this by validating your offering and reassuring visitors that others have had positive experiences.

Why add testimonials to Joomla?

Joomla is widely used for business, community, and content-driven sites where credibility matters.

Because Joomla supports modules and flexible layouts, testimonials can be placed exactly where reassurance is needed.

How to add testimonials to Joomla

Adding testimonial widgets to your website or online store is fast and requires no code.

First, sign up for a WiserReview account.

Next, follow the steps below to show a clean, high-converting testimonial on your site.

Start by importing your existing testimonial via a direct integration or CSV import.

If you do not have any testimonials yet, you can start collecting them using WiserReview automations. We also support video testimonials.

Review integration

After that, go to the Widgets section. You will see multiple review and testimonial widgets built to build trust and help visitors decide.

For this example, we chose the carousel video. You can customize it to match your brand colors and layout. Once everything looks right, click Install.

You will then see the JavaScript, iframe, and URL options for embedding the widget on your site.

You can explore the platform further or book a demo to learn how to collect more testimonials and show them where they matter most, based on our four years of experience working with over 1,100 brands.

Embed testimonials on Joomla

After generating your WiserReview embed code, follow these Joomla-specific steps:

  1. Log in to your Joomla administrator panel
  2. Go to Content and open the article or page where you want testimonials
  3. Switch the editor to Code view or disable the editor
  4. Paste the JavaScript embed code, iframe, or URL from WiserReview into the content
  5. Save the article and clear cache if required

You can also add the embed code inside a Custom HTML module to reuse testimonials across multiple Joomla pages.

Best places to show testimonials on Joomla

Strategic placement helps testimonials support trust and action.

Service and solution pages

Service pages attract visitors comparing options. Testimonials that highlight results, reliability, or outcomes reduce uncertainty.

Seeing proof from similar users reassures visitors that your service is a safe and proven choice.

Landing pages

Joomla landing pages are often used for campaigns or lead generation.

Testimonials placed near headlines or forms build immediate credibility and encourage visitors to convert instead of leaving.

Blog and article pages

Long-form articles educate visitors but can feel one-sided. Testimonials placed within or after key sections act as credibility checkpoints.

They reinforce trust and keep readers engaged as they move toward action.

Footer and reusable modules

Using Joomla modules allows site-wide placement.

Testimonials in footers or reusable sections create consistent trust signals across the site, even for visitors who skim content.
