- **Pricing**: Free
- **Package type**: Magento 2 module
- **Status**: active, accepting new buyers

## Installation

Packagento is licence-gated, so even free packages need a licence on a project before Composer can resolve them.

1. **Sign in or create an account** at https://packagento.com/customer/account/.

2. **Add the package to your account.** Open https://packagento.com/reviewscouk/reviews and complete the free checkout. A licence is minted automatically.

3. **Create or pick a project, then activate the licence on it.**
   - Projects represent the Magento installs you deploy to. Manage them at https://packagento.com/projects/.
   - Activate the new licence on the project you'll deploy this package to. Activation is what generates the Composer credentials scoped to that project.

4. **Add the project credentials to your Magento codebase.**

   Grab the project's public + private key from https://packagento.com/projects/ (open the project, then its Credentials tab), and add them to `auth.json`:

   ```json
   {
     "http-basic": {
       "packagento.com": {
         "username": "ppk_live_...",
         "password": "psk_live_..."
       }
     }
   }
   ```

   Add the Packagento Composer repository to `composer.json`:

   ```json
   {
     "repositories": [
       { "type": "composer", "url": "https://packagento.com" }
     ]
   }
   ```

5. **Install and apply.**

   ```bash
   composer require reviewscouk/reviews:*
   bin/magento setup:upgrade
   bin/magento setup:di:compile
   bin/magento cache:flush
   ```

### Basic Configuration

This extension requires a Store ID and an API key, obtained from your account area on [Reviews.co.uk](http://www.reviews.co.uk/) or [Reviews.io](http://www.reviews.io/). To find these details;

1. Log into your account, and navigate to `Integrations`
2. Then, select _Magento_
3. Here, you'll find your __Store ID__ and __API Key__ required by the module.

To configure the module, log into your Magento Administration panel (ensuring the module is correctly installed) and then;

1. Navigate to `Stores -> Configuration -> Reviews.co.uk -> Setup`
2. Select your __Region__. Reviews.co.uk customers will be _UK_, and Reviews.io customers will be _US_
3. Enter your __Store ID__ and __API KEY__

### Store Specific Integration

The Reviews Magento extension offers a number of features - which ones you use will depend on what you're looking to achieve. Below is in a brief outline of them all, and instruction on how to configure them.

#### Review Collection Emails

Magento can automate the review collection process by sending customer/order data to the Reviews platform as soon as an order is completed. You can control the automated collection of Merchant and Product reviews independently by;

1. Navigate to  `Stores -> Configuration -> Reviews.co.uk -> Automation -> Review Collection`
2. To enable collection of Merchant Reviews set __Queue Merchant Review Emails__ to _Yes_
3. To enable collection of Product Reviews set __Queue Products Review Emails__ to _Yes_

#### Product Feed

The product feed allows you to sync your product catalog with the Reviews platform. This feed will be available at _www.your-domain.com_/reviews/index/feed. To enable this;

1. Navigate to  `Stores -> Configuration -> Reviews.co.uk -> Automation -> Product Feed`
2. Under _Product Feed_, set __Product Feed__ to _Yes_.
3. When you save these settings, the URL of your feed will automatically be added to your Reviews account.

#### Product Reviews Widget

Automatically pull through product specific reviews directly onto your product pages. To enable this;

1. Navigate to  `Stores -> Configuration -> Reviews.co.uk -> On Page Content -> Product Reviews Widget`
2. Set __Display Reviews Widget on Product Pages__ to _Yes_
3. You can set the colour used in the widget by entering a HEX colour code into the __Widget Hex Colour__ field. This code must be a valid 6 digit HEX value, with or without the leading # character.
4. This extension offers 2 types of widget, set via changing the value in the __Product Widget Version__ drop down. _Javascript Widget_ is the classic method of displaying reviews and will place an iFrame on the page with the reviews inside. The newer method, _Static Content Widget_, will display the reviews directly on the product page, rather than inside an iFrame. This is the preferred method as it allows search engines like Google to crawl and cache the content of the reviews.

#### Rich Snippets

The Reviews.co.uk Magento modules allows you to automatically include structured Rich Snippet data on your pages. This data is used by search engines to better understand the content of your pages. Search engines also often use this data to improve the content of results on a Search Engine Result Page (SERP). You can find out more information [here](https://developers.google.com/search/docs/guides/intro-structured-data)

To enable Rich Snippets;

1. Navigate to  `Stores -> Configuration -> Reviews.co.uk -> On Page Content -> Rich Snippets`
2. To enable Rich Snippets containing Merchant review data, set __Enable Merchant Rich Snippets__ to _Yes_
3. To enable Rich Snippets containing Product review data, set __Enable Product Rich Snippets__ to _Yes_

## Quality

Latest release (0.0.72) fails the Packagento QA pipeline. Verdicts below are per-cell (Magento line × PHP version) for the matrixed tools, and run-once for the static / security tiers.


### Compatibility

Each Magento line is installed on its supported PHP versions, then the module is built (DI compile + static-content deploy). Cells show passed / failed / untested; staircase gaps render as `–`.

| Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4.7 | Pass | Pass | – | – |
| 2.4.8 | – | Pass | 1 | – |
| 2.4.9 | – | – | 1 | 1 |


### Code Quality

Advisory checks against the module's source. Never affect the Compatibility verdict — a phpcs finding can't make a module incompatible.

#### Static Analysis

Coding standards (phpcs), mess detection (phpmd), copy-pasted code (cpd), PHP cross-version compatibility, composer.json validity. Each runs once for the whole module.

| Tool | Status | Findings | Summary |
|---|---|---|---|
| PHPCS | Fail | 277 | 51 errors, 226 warnings (ruleset: Magento2) — 66 auto-fixable with phpcbf |
| PHPMD | Warning | 27 | 27 rule violations (UndefinedVariable:10, UnusedFormalParameter:7, NPathComplexity:3, CyclomaticComplexity:2, UnusedLocalVariable:2) |
| Cpd | Pass | 0 |  |
| Composer validate | Pass | 0 |  |

#### PHPStan

Type-checks the module against a real Magento install. Re-runs per Magento + PHP version because resolvable symbols differ between releases.

| Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4.7 | 10 | 10 | – | – |
| 2.4.8 | – | 10 | 14 | – |
| 2.4.9 | – | – | 14 | 14 |


### Tests

Unit and integration suites run per Magento + PHP cell. Test failures speak to the module's behaviour, not its compatibility with a line, so they're reported here separately.

#### Unit Tests

| Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4.7 | N/A | N/A | – | – |
| 2.4.8 | – | N/A | N/A | – |
| 2.4.9 | – | – | N/A | N/A |

#### Integration Tests

| Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4.7 | N/A | N/A | – | – |
| 2.4.8 | – | N/A | N/A | – |
| 2.4.9 | – | – | N/A | N/A |


### Security

Dependency-advisory audit (composer audit) plus a source malware scan. A malware detection fails the version outright.

| Tool | Status | Findings | Summary |
|---|---|---|---|
| Composer audit | Pass | 0 |  |
| Malware scan | Pass | 0 |  |

## Licence and pricing

Free. A licence is still minted on checkout and bound to your project for Composer access — no payment step.

Refundable within 14 days of first purchase via https://packagento.com/account/refunds/.

## Install via Claude Code or any MCP client

```

This handles cart, checkout, licence minting, project activation, and writes auth.json credentials. Connect a client with `claude mcp add packagento https://mcp.packagento.com`. Full setup at https://packagento.com/docs/mcp-setup.
