This setup allows merchants to arrange the order in which products are displayed on email and Review Submission Pages, giving preference to collecting reviews for high-priced items or products with fewer reviews.
There are 3 options available:
By price: High to Low: This option arranges products based on their prices, from the highest-priced items to the lowest-priced ones.
By review: Least to Most: Products are arranged from those with the fewest reviews to those with the most.
By list of Shopify orders: This organizes products according to the order in which they appear in the merchant's Shopify store.
This setup is used when customers forget to leave reviews for the purchase after you send the auto-review request email. There are 3 options for you to select:
Option 1: Send a review reminder email if there is at least one product that has not been reviewed yet in the first email.
When selecting this option, you should schedule the sending time to remind them after the first review request.
Option 2: Send a review reminder email only if no product has not been reviewed yet in the first email.
Option 3: None (don't send reminder emails).
Note:
+ The default scheduled time is 7 days after the first review request, and you can adjust the day as you desire.
+ We keep the email reminder template, and it cannot be edited.
+ Reminder email is only available from the essential plan.
+ When downgrading the pricing plan, the email reminders feature will be disabled, and auto-select option 3.
