# How to use Google Reviews **Note: Please update Golo to version 1.4.7 or higher to use this feature** **Places API** allows to show **only 5 reviews** from that, those results are **cached for 48 hours** to not generate additional costs for API. Complete the following steps to display Google reviews: ### **1.** Activate Google Review at Theme Option => Listing Detail**.** ![](/files/-MkAJtGsaFPzAtz5-iLo) ### **2. Finding Google Place ID. (**You need to repeat this step for different places that want to show Google Reviews**)** To find the PlaceID for the practice, go to the [Google Place ID Finder](https://developers.google.com/places/web-service/place-id?utm_source=google\&utm_medium=cpc\&utm_campaign=FY18-Q2-global-demandgen-paidsearchonnetworkhouseads-cs-maps_contactsal_saf\&utm_content=text-ad-none-none-DEV_c-CRE_433476780223-ADGP_Hybrid%20%7C%20AW%20SEM%20%7C%20BKWS%20~%20Place%20IDs-KWID_43700039136946234-kwd-582432943155-userloc_9031053\&utm_term=KW_%2Bplace%20%2Bids-ST_%2Bplace%20%2Bids\&gclid=Cj0KCQiA2uH-BRCCARIsAEeef3lqxzbpq7-gdnbrsPc8d0ODCZJ2apom_JiuF8Jt8zeAP6B7kD_CYw4aAl6jEALw_wcB).
