# Where to find the Judge.me review widget code On a current Shopify theme, Judge.me has no widget code to copy: widgets are app blocks. We checked the Judge.me admin. Here is where each widget goes. Author: Formgong Published: 2026-11-02 Language: en Canonical: https://formgong.com/en/blog/judge-me-review-widget-code/ On an Online Store 2.0 theme such as Dawn there is no Judge.me widget code to copy. In Judge.me open Settings → Widgets and press Install on a widget: it opens the Shopify theme editor and adds the widget as an app block. Turn on the Judge.me app embed first (App embeds in the theme editor), or the Install buttons stay greyed out. Only Vintage themes need code: Judge.me's help article for Vintage themes lists a Liquid snippet for each widget and the theme file it goes in, such as templates/product.liquid for the review widget. ## Where the code went Older Judge.me guides and forum answers tell you to paste a `
` snippet into your product template. On a current Shopify theme that is no longer how it works. Since Online Store 2.0, apps add their widgets as app blocks: pieces you place in the theme editor, the same way you place a heading or an image. Judge.me's own help says that on a 2.0 theme you “install the widgets using app blocks instead.” We went looking for the code in the Judge.me admin of our own Shopify development store anyway. Judge.me admin, Forever Free plan, Shopify Dawn theme, 2 November 2026. We looked and clicked Install once; nothing was saved. Where we lookedWhat we found Settings → WidgetsMore than 20 widget cards, each with an **Install ↗** or **Customize** button. None shows code. Banner on the same page“App embeds missing from live theme. This is required for all widgets to show correctly.” With the embed off, Install was greyed out on the Review Widget and Star Rating Badge cards. Install ↗ (Trust Badge card)Opened the Shopify theme editor in a new tab, with `addAppBlockId=…/trust_badge` in the address: it adds an app block. Settings search for “code”Two results: “Qr Code” and “External Code”. External Code is a coupon setting. So the Judge.me admin itself no longer hands out widget code. The Install button is the shortcut: it opens the theme editor at the right place, and you save there. ## Add the review widget on a 2.0 theme First the app embed. In Shopify go to Online Store → Themes → Customize, open App embeds (its icon is in the left bar of the theme editor), switch on Judge.me and save. The embed loads Judge.me's script on every page; without it the widgets do not show, which is why our Install buttons were greyed out. Then the widget. Either press Install on the Review Widget card in Judge.me → Settings → Widgets, or open a product page in the theme editor yourself, click Add block under the product information, pick the Judge.me Review Widget and save. The star rating badge works the same way, placed under the product title. If you saved and the widget still does not appear on the live page, our guide to [Judge.me reviews not showing](/en/blog/judge-me-reviews-not-showing/) goes through the causes we reproduced. ## On a Vintage theme you still paste code Vintage themes are the older Shopify themes without app blocks. Judge.me's guide for them still uses Liquid snippets, after the same first step of turning on the app embed. Where Judge.me's guide for Vintage themes puts each snippet. WidgetFile Review Widget`templates/product.liquid`, under the product section Star Rating Badge`sections/product-template.liquid`, under the product title Reviews Carousel, Medals, UGC Media Grid, review counters`templates/index.liquid` All reviews page (Happy Customers)a new template, `templates/page.judgeme_reviews.liquid` The review widget snippet is about fifteen lines of Liquid. It wraps `id='judgeme_product_reviews' class='jdgm-widget jdgm-review-widget'` around the product's Judge.me metafields (`product.metafields.judgeme.widget` and `review_widget_data`). Copy it from Judge.me's article rather than from a forum, and keep a copy of the template before you edit it. Judge.me also offers to install the widgets for you on a Vintage theme if you contact their support. ## Need the reviews somewhere Judge.me's widget does not go?
