Who Is It For

Stores that want social proof on product and landing pages, where a slider of real customer reviews builds trust before checkout.
Merchants with many testimonial types who need categories to separate product reviews from service stories or B2B case studies.
SEO-focused stores that want rich snippet star ratings in Google search results through JSON-LD Review schema.
Hyva storefronts that need a testimonial slider built on Alpine.js with no jQuery added back in.
Merchants who want submissions from customers, with an approval step before anything goes live.

Key Features

Testimonials Slider Widget

Drop-in widget for any CMS page, CMS block, or layout XML position.
Configurable columns for mobile, tablet, and desktop.
Autoplay and loop support with pause-on-hover.
Filter by category or featured flag to show the right testimonials in the right place.
Hyva-native Alpine.js slider using Swiper, loaded lazily via IntersectionObserver on Hyva storefronts.
Luma slider using the same Swiper library with vanilla JS templates.

Testimonial Content

Customer name, job title, company fields for each entry.
Customer photo upload shown as an avatar in the slider and on the detail page.
1 to 5 star rating per testimonial.
Short excerpt and full content fields so the slider card stays clean while the detail page has the full story.
Featured flag to highlight the best testimonials on the homepage or in widgets.
Publish / Pending / Rejected status so drafts stay private until approved.

Individual Testimonial Pages

Every testimonial gets its own SEO-friendly URL at /testimonials/<url-key>.
Meta title and meta description configurable per testimonial from the admin grid.
JSON-LD Review schema on each page so Google can show the author, rating, and review body as a rich snippet.
ItemList schema on the main listing page for a combined rich snippet.

Frontend Submission Form

Accessible at /testimonials/submit and embeddable via a CMS block directive.
Fields: name, email, job title, company, star rating, testimonial text, and photo upload.
Admin approval workflow - new submissions are saved as pending status and must be approved before going live.
Honeypot bot protection and CSRF form key validation built in.

Admin Management

Admin grid for testimonials under Panth Infotech > Testimonials > Manage Testimonials with status filter, rating filter, and mass-delete.
Admin grid for categories under Panth Infotech > Testimonials > Manage Categories.
Inline status toggle (approve, reject, publish) directly from the grid.

Hyva + Luma Ready

Theme detected automatically through Panth_Core's theme helper.

Built to Last

bin/magento cache:flush

Verify Installation

bin/magento module:status Panth_Testimonials
# Expected: Module is enabled

After install, open:

Admin -> Panth Infotech -> Testimonials -> Manage Testimonials

Configuration

Go to Stores -> Configuration -> Panth Extensions -> Testimonials.

Setting	Group	Default	Description
Enable Module	General Settings	Yes	Master toggle for the testimonials module.
Page Title	General Settings	Customer Testimonials	Title shown on the testimonials listing page.
URL Route	General Settings	testimonials	Base URL path (e.g. "testimonials" creates /testimonials).
Meta Description	General Settings	(empty)	Meta description for the main listing page.
Items Per Page	Display Settings	12	Number of testimonials per page on the listing.
Enable Submit Form	Submit Form Settings	Yes	Show the submission form to customers on the frontend.
Require Approval	Submit Form Settings	Yes	New submissions stay as pending until an admin approves them.

How It Works

Testimonials are created in the admin under Panth Infotech > Testimonials > Manage Testimonials, or submitted by customers via the frontend form at /testimonials/submit.
Each testimonial has a star rating (1-5), customer name, optional photo, job title, company, and is assigned a URL key.
The custom router maps clean URLs: /testimonials for the listing, /testimonials/category/<slug> for category pages, and /testimonials/<slug> for individual detail pages.
The Testimonials Slider widget can be placed on any CMS page or block. On Hyva storefronts it uses Alpine.js and loads Swiper lazily via IntersectionObserver so it does not affect page load.
Every individual testimonial page emits JSON-LD Review structured data so Google can pick up the author name, rating value, and review body for rich snippets.
The main listing page emits an ItemList schema wrapping the individual Review entries.

FAQ

Does the slider work on Hyva themes?

Yes. Panth Testimonials ships native Alpine.js templates for Hyva. Swiper is loaded lazily via IntersectionObserver so it has no impact on the initial page render. No jQuery is needed.

Do customers get their own URL for each testimonial?

Yes. Every testimonial gets a clean SEO URL at /testimonials/<url-key>, with its own meta title and meta description set in the admin.

Will star ratings appear in Google search results?

The module emits valid schema.org/Review JSON-LD on individual pages and ItemList schema on the listing page. Whether Google shows rich snippets depends on its own eligibility rules, but the markup is correct and can be verified with Google Rich Results Test.

Can I have separate groups of testimonials, for example by product or by service?

Yes. Create unlimited categories under Panth Infotech > Testimonials > Manage Categories, then assign each testimonial to one. Category pages are served at /testimonials/category/<slug>.

Can customers submit testimonials directly from the store?

Yes. The submission form is at /testimonials/submit. New submissions are saved with pending status and must be approved in the admin before they appear publicly.

Can I filter the slider widget to show only featured testimonials?

Yes. The slider widget supports a featured-only filter and a category filter, so you can show a curated set on any page.

Does it work with multi-store setups?

Yes. Module settings, testimonial content, and URLs all respect Magento's scope hierarchy: default, website, and store view.

Is the module compatible with Full Page Cache?

Yes. All dynamic pieces are handled via AJAX on Luma and Hyva hydration, so the module does not break FPC.

Does Panth Testimonials need Panth Core?

Yes. mage2kishan/module-core is a free, required dependency that Composer installs automatically.
