Suggest edits
Suggest edits let reviewers propose new wording right where it sits on the page, like a tracked change in a document. Instead of a comment saying “change this heading to something shorter”, a reviewer proposes the exact new text and you accept it in one click.
When to suggest instead of comment
Both have their place. Use a comment for anything the reviewer cannot write for you: layout, spacing, images, behaviour on mobile, or a question. Use a suggestion whenever the reviewer already knows what the text should say. Most late-round revisions are wording, and for wording a suggestion removes a whole back-and-forth: you are not interpreting a request, you are approving a specific change.
How it works for reviewers
- The reviewer picks an element and proposes replacement wording. It appears as a suggestion on the comment, with the original text preserved alongside it.
- Suggest mode is on by default, so reviewers can propose edits with no setup from you.
- Reviewers need no account and no login, exactly as with ordinary comments. They open the review link and start suggesting.
- As a new suggestion is made it scrolls into view, so nothing is left off screen.
Accepting and rejecting
Every suggestion is a decision, not an instruction. Accept and Reject appear only while a suggestion is still open, so nothing can be actioned twice.
- Accept confirms the change and shows an “Applied!” confirmation.
- Reject restores the original wording exactly. Rejecting is available on every plan.
Applying a suggestion (Pro)
Writing an accepted suggestion to your page is a Pro feature. On Bricks pages, an accepted suggestion is written straight to the page. On other builders, Reviso shows you the text so you can paste it in. Every applied edit can be reverted.
By default your team applies suggestions. Per review, you can also allow the client to apply their own copy fixes, which suits a trusted client doing a proofreading pass, and is best left off for a first-round review.
Two details make applied edits dependable in the real world: an applied suggestion resolves the correct text even when a page optimiser has stripped Bricks element IDs, and applying an edit purges the common page caches so the change is visible immediately rather than after a cache expiry.
Suggestions on internal notes
Suggestions are not only for clients. They also work on internal comments, on any page of your site, so a colleague can propose copy fixes during an internal QA pass before the client ever sees the page.
Common questions
Do reviewers need a WordPress account to suggest edits?
No. Suggestions work through the same no-login review link as comments.
Is Suggest mode free?
Proposing and rejecting suggestions is free on every plan. Applying an accepted suggestion to the page automatically is a Pro feature.
Does it work on Elementor and Gutenberg?
Reviewers can suggest edits on any supported builder. Automatic application to the page currently works on Bricks; elsewhere Reviso shows you the suggested text to apply yourself.
Can I undo an applied edit?
Yes. Every applied edit can be reverted.
Can I turn Suggest mode off?
It is on by default. Whether a client can apply their own suggestions is a per-review setting you control.
