A very good plugin, but it would be even better if i could translate it to my language. Thas is the only reason i give you 4 stars.

WP Customer Reviews is very good. I wish it was connected to Gravatar for some added verification of an identity to help add trust to the reviews. In general, I like the barebones nature of the plugin. I didn’t want extra features because I would lose confidence in the plugin’s compatibility over the long run. Gravatar though, I view as necessary because the best websites that will rank high in Google will need some verification features (viewable to the reader). It’s necessary innovation. I have Wordpress comments connected to Gravatar for that reason. I would love my reviews to connect to the same system.
