Works great!
This works perfectly for what I need to do, and I appreciate the options in the Advanced tab. Great work on giving me control over the reviews that are displayed. Please keep this plugin going, it's exactly the type of plugin we all appreciate: effective, easy to use, and well-documented.

Great plugin!
I wish you could preview the lots of different styles easier because it is very tedious at this time to view them one by one.
