Google reviews widget & Instagram feed for Wix
Add your real Google reviews or your Instagram feed to a Wix site with the Embed HTML element and one line of code. It works on any Wix template, and this guide includes the one Wix-specific trap — a fixed-height frame — that cuts reviews off at the bottom if you do not know about it.
The steps are the same for both widgets. Everything below works unchanged whether you are adding your Google reviews or your Instagram feed to Wix — the same block, the same one-line snippet, in the same place. Only the widget id differs, and that is generated for you when you save.
Works on any Wix template Wix Editor and Editor X About five minutes
Before you start: you need a TrustGetter account with a saved widget, which is where your embed code comes from, and your Wix site open in the editor. Custom code embeds need a Wix site that is connected to a paid plan and published; on a free Wix site the element is available in the editor but the published page carries Wix branding around it.
How to add Google reviews or an Instagram feed to Wix
Five steps. The first three happen in TrustGetter, and the last two in the Wix Editor.
Connect your Google listing or your Instagram account
Create a free account and search for your business by name, the way a customer would find you on Google Maps. We fetch your reviews once and keep them, so your Wix page never waits on Google.
For an Instagram feed it is the same step with a different button: you connect the account on Instagram’s own sign-in screen and approve read access there. We never see your password, and we cannot post, comment or change anything. From there on the two widgets are built and installed identically.
Choose a layout — and prefer one or two columns
17 templates across 7 layouts. On Wix, a list or a single-column carousel behaves better than a three-column grid, because the embed sits in a fixed box you size by hand rather than one that flows with the page.
Set your colours, font and spacing in the builder and check the live preview at phone width before you leave.
An Instagram feed is the same panel with a different list: 10 layouts instead of templates, from a plain grid to a gapless wall to a scrolling row of reels. The colour, font and spacing controls are the ones you have just used.
Save the widget and copy the embed code
Saving publishes the widget and generates its embed code — two short lines, with your own widget id in place of the example:
Add an Embed HTML element in the Wix Editor
In the Wix Editor, click + Add Elements → Embed Code → Embed HTML. A box appears on the canvas with an Enter Code button on it. Drag the box to where the reviews should sit on the page.
Paste the code, size the box, then publish
Click Enter Code, paste the embed code, and click Apply. Now drag the box taller than you think it needs to be — see the warning below — and click Publish.
Check the published page rather than the editor. Wix renders embeds in a sandboxed frame that sometimes stays blank in the editor and works perfectly on the live site.
The Wix height trap. Wix renders embedded HTML inside its own iframe, and that frame does not grow with its contents. If the widget is taller than the box you drew, the bottom is simply cut off — nothing warns you, and it looks like reviews are missing rather than hidden. Make the box taller than you expect, then trim it down while looking at the published page. A one- or two-column layout suits Wix far better than three for exactly this reason.
Running both widgets on Wix
The steps above already cover the Instagram feed — it is the same one-line snippet, pasted into the same block, in the same place. What follows is the only part that differs, and what happens when you want both on one page.
The one difference is step 1. A Google listing is found by searching for it; an Instagram account is connected by signing in on Instagram's own screen and approving read access there. Everything after that — choosing a look, saving, copying the snippet, pasting it into Wix — is identical.
You can run both on one page: your reviews in a grid partway down, your latest posts in a row nearer the foot. On Wix that is two blocks and two snippets. See the Instagram feed widget for the 10 layouts and what connecting an account gives us access to.
Common Wix questions
My reviews are cut off at the bottom.
That is the fixed-height frame described above, and it is the single most common Wix issue. Drag the Embed HTML box taller in the editor and republish. If you would rather keep the box small, switch the widget to a carousel or marquee layout, which show one review at a time and have a predictable height.
The box is blank in the Wix Editor.
Check the published page before assuming anything is wrong. Wix frequently does not execute embedded scripts inside the editor canvas, so a blank box there is normal. If the published page is also blank, confirm you pasted both lines of the embed code and that you clicked Apply and then Publish.
Does it work on a free Wix site?
The Embed HTML element is available in the editor regardless, but a free Wix site publishes with Wix branding and on a Wix subdomain, which most businesses do not want around their reviews anyway. On any paid Wix plan with your own domain it behaves exactly as this guide describes.
Can I put the widget on more than one Wix page?
Yes. Add an Embed HTML element to each page and paste the same code into it — the embed code is identical everywhere and there is no extra cost. A second widget is only needed for a second, different design.
Using something else?
The same widget and the same embed code work anywhere you can paste HTML. These guides give the exact menu names for each platform.
