Yelp! Widget Pro Discontinued Question

    What will happen to Yelp! Widget Pro when it is discontinued 31 December 2018?

    We received a notice that Yelp! Widget Pro is being discontinued and that we should “upgrade” to WP Business Reviews. I’ve read through the WP Business Reviews website and it is not clear what will happen to Yelp! Widget Pro.

    If we “upgrade” to WP Business Reviews, will we still have the same functionality that Yelp! Widget Pro provided (i.e. displaying “best of” information by location)? Or, is WP Business Reviews a completely different plugin?

    From what I can tell, WP Business Reviews only displays reviews for a particular business from many sources. However, when you say to “upgrade”, it leads one to believe the product will provide the initial functionality and more.

    Please help me and the many users of Yelp! Widget Pro better understand the changes you’ve implemented. So far your documentation is hazy at best.

    Hi there, thanks for the question.

    The Yelp Widget Pro plugin, and our other free plugins like Yellow Pages and Google Places Reviews will continue to be publicly available here on the www.remarpro.com plugin directory. But we will not be pushing any more updates to them after Dec 31 this year.

    Regarding WP Business Reviews, all the functionality of Yelp Reviews Pro is also in WPBR, plus a lot more. You can continue to search for any business on Yelp to create a WPBR Collection with. See our demo video here:

    If you have additional questions at all, I’d encourage you to use our Live Chat on wpbusinessreviews.com

    Thanks!
