FAQ

Does Trust require WooCommerce?

Yes. Trust is a WooCommerce extension. If WooCommerce is not active it stays inactive and shows an admin notice. It targets WooCommerce 8.0 or later and declares HPOS and Cart/Checkout Blocks compatibility.

Where does the badge row appear?

After the add-to-cart button on single product pages, via the woocommerce_after_add_to_cart_form hook, whenever Show on product pages is on (the default). You can also place it anywhere with the [trust_badges] shortcode. There is no cart or checkout placement.

Which badges are included?

Ten bundled inline-SVG badges: secure checkout, SSL encrypted, money-back guarantee, verified store, free shipping, card payment, digital wallet, 24/7 support, privacy protected and satisfaction. Four are shown by default (secure checkout, SSL encrypted, money-back, card payment). Pick which to show in the Badges card on the settings screen.

Can I upload my own badge images?

No. Trust ships a fixed set of ten bundled inline SVGs; there is no custom-image or media-library upload. This keeps every badge a self-contained graphic with no external request and no third-party logo that could breach trademark rules.

Does it load anything from third-party servers?

No. All badges are inline SVGs served from your own site. Nothing is loaded from a third party and there is nothing to track.

Will it slow my store down or shift the layout?

No. The storefront output is CSS-only with no JavaScript, and the row is server-rendered in normal document flow, so it does not cause layout shift.

Can I place badges somewhere custom?

Yes. Use the [trust_badges] shortcode in a page, block, widget area or template part. It renders the same configured row and takes no attributes. The Enable trust badges master toggle must be on for it to output anything.

Can I show badges only where I place them by hand?

Yes. Turn off Show on product pages (leaving Enable trust badges on) and use the shortcode wherever you want the row.

Can I match the badges to my brand colour?

Yes. Set the Icon colour on the settings screen; it tints the icons and heading and applies inline as the --trust-seal custom property, so badges follow it through currentColor. For size, gap or radius, override the --trust-* properties on .trust-badges in your theme CSS.

Can I change the form markup by overriding a template in my theme?

No. The row is rendered from the plugin’s own templates/badges.php and is not loaded through locate_template, so a theme copy is ignored. Re-theme with the --trust-* CSS custom properties instead.

Are the badges accessible?

Yes. Each badge exposes an accessible name via role="img" and aria-label, the row is a semantic list, and the hover and one-time seal animations are gated behind prefers-reduced-motion. A dark-scheme variant is included.

Is there a developer filter?

Yes. trust_sanitize_settings runs on the settings array before it is saved (passing the sanitised array and the raw submission), so you can pin or adjust values in code. See Configuration.

How do I remove all plugin data?

Deleting Trust from the Plugins screen runs the uninstall routine, which deletes the trust_settings and trust_db_version options. Trust creates no custom table, and WooCommerce data is never touched.

Is there a Pro edition?

A Pro edition is under consideration but not yet released. The free edition is the complete trust-badge product.
