Was This Helpful Pro adds a simple yes/no feedback block to posts, pages, and custom post types so you can see what resonates and what doesn’t. Readers can leave an optional comment, and you get clear charts and reports in the dashboard to spot winning and underperforming content. Works on single views and archive/listing pages, with customizable templates and text.
How It Works
- Enable where it shows: In the plugin settings, turn on feedback for posts/pages, categories, and archives.
- Customize the widget: Pick a template, tweak colors, and change button labels and messages (question, thank-you, already voted).
- Collect richer input: Let users add a short note explaining their Yes/No.
- Place it manually (optional): Insert [
was-this-helpful
] in a post/page to show the widget only where you want. - Manage per post: Disable the widget or reset a single post’s counts from the meta box.
- Review & export: See pie charts and lists of positive/negative feedback, then export CSV by sentiment and date range.
