## विवरण

GlowReviews helps you collect customer feedback and publish approved testimonials
with native WordPress tools. Feedback submissions are stored as a custom post type,
reviewed in the admin area, and displayed with shortcode-driven grid, slider, or
list layouts.

The plugin includes a frontend feedback form, duplicate-email update flow, testimonial
moderation tools, image upload support, avatar fallbacks, and shortcode-based display
controls. Longer testimonial content can be collapsed with a `Read More` toggle,
while built-in validation, nonce checks, honeypot fields, form timing checks, and
rate limiting help keep submissions clean and secure.

#### Key Features

 * Collect feedback with 1-5 star ratings
 * Frontend feedback form shortcode with AJAX and standard submission support
 * Detect duplicate submissions by email and allow customers to update an existing
   review
 * Display approved testimonials in grid, slider, or list layouts
 * Show `Read More` / `Read Less` for testimonial text longer than 120 characters
 * Upload customer images with validation for JPG, PNG, and GIF files up to 2MB
 * Fall back to WordPress user avatars for logged-in users when no custom image 
   is uploaded
 * Review submissions from a dedicated Pending Feedback admin screen
 * Approve, reject, edit, or manually add testimonials from the WordPress dashboard
 * Display settings page and built-in documentation page in wp-admin
 * Flexible shortcode attributes for layout, visibility, ordering, limits, and categories
   using the `glowrev-` shortcode prefix
 * Spam protection with honeypot fields, nonce checks, form timing validation, and
   IP-based rate limiting
 * Migration helpers for older CLVO-based plugin data and admin URLs
 * Uses WordPress caching APIs to reduce repeated testimonial queries
 * Improved WordPress coding standards compliance, escaping, nonce validation, caching,
   and readme consistency

## स्थापना

 1. Upload the `glowreviews` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the `Plugins` menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to `GlowReviews` or `Settings > GlowReviews` in wp-admin.
 4. Add a feedback form with `[glowrev-feedback-form]`.
 5. Display testimonials with `[glowrev-display-testimonials]`.

## प्रश्नोत्तर

### How do I collect feedback?

Use the feedback form shortcode on any page or post:

 * `[glowrev-feedback-form]`

Available form shortcode attributes:

 * `title` – Form title. Default: `Share Your Experience`
 * `show_title` – Show or hide the form title. Default: `yes`
 * `class` – Add a custom wrapper class

### What fields are included in the feedback form?

The form includes:

 * Name
 * Company name
 * Designation
 * Email
 * Optional image upload
 * 1-5 star rating
 * Feedback text with a 150 character maximum

### How does long testimonial text display?

If testimonial content is longer than 120 characters, GlowReviews shows a `Read 
More` link so visitors can expand and collapse the full text in the testimonial 
layouts.

### Can customers update an existing feedback entry?

Yes. If a submission uses an email address that already exists, GlowReviews detects
it and lets the customer update that testimonial instead of creating a duplicate.
Updated submissions return to pending review.

### How do I display testimonials on my site?

Use the display shortcode:

 * `[glowrev-display-testimonials]`

Supported display shortcode attributes:

 * `limit` – Number of testimonials to show. Default: `-1`
 * `orderby` – Sort field such as `date`, `title`, or `rand`
 * `order` – `ASC` or `DESC`
 * `category` – Filter by category slug(s), comma-separated
 * `layout` – `grid`, `slider`, or `list`
 * `show_image` – `yes` or `no`
 * `show_rating` – `yes` or `no`
 * `show_excerpt` – `yes` or `no`
 * `show_date` – `yes` or `no`
 * `show_author` – `yes` or `no`
 * `show_company` – `yes` or `no`
 * `show_designation` – `yes` or `no`
 * `show_position` – `yes` or `no`
 * `columns` – Number of columns for grid layout. Default: `3`

Example:

    ```
    [glowrev-display-testimonials layout="grid" limit="6" show_rating="yes" show_company="yes"]
    ```

### Do testimonials appear automatically after submission?

No. Frontend submissions are stored as pending and must be approved before they 
appear on the site.

### How do I moderate submissions?

GlowReviews adds a dedicated `Pending Feedback` admin page where you can:

 * Review pending submissions
 * Approve testimonials for frontend display
 * Reject testimonials and move them to trash
 * Open the full editor for manual changes

### Can I add testimonials manually from wp-admin?

Yes. Testimonials are stored as the `glowrev_testimonial` custom post type, so you
can create and edit them directly in WordPress.

### How does image handling work?

Customers can upload JPG, JPEG, PNG, or GIF images up to 2MB. If a logged-in user
submits feedback without uploading an image, GlowReviews can display their WordPress
user avatar instead.

### Which shortcodes should I use?

Use the current shortcode names:

 * `[glowrev-feedback-form]`
 * `[glowrev-display-testimonials]`

Legacy shortcode aliases may still work for backward compatibility, but the `glowrev-`
shortcodes are the recommended format for new usage.

### What spam and validation protections are included?

GlowReviews includes:

 * WordPress nonce verification
 * Hidden honeypot fields
 * Form timing checks
 * IP-based rate limiting
 * Duplicate email detection
 * File type and file size validation
 * Sanitization and validation of submitted fields

Current rate limits:

 * 3 submissions per hour per IP
 * 10 submissions per day per IP

### Does the plugin include admin documentation?

Yes. The plugin adds a documentation page in wp-admin along with display settings
and testimonial management screens.
