How reviews work
- Reviews are available for most product types, including Courses and Files.
- Customers can leave a 1–5 star rating and optionally add a short written comment.
- Each review is tied to the corresponding order, so you always know who left it and when.
Reviews are visible only to you in your Sherpo dashboard for now. They are not displayed publicly on your storefront or product pages.
Enable or disable reviews
Reviews are enabled by default. To turn them off for a specific product:- Go to Products → [Product] → Settings.

Best practices
