I gave it a try last night and it was a no go, when i shared it via addthis, nothing came up either, it posted on FB:

No image
Name of site
Description of site
Post title

Any suggestions ?

View the source of your product page and let me know if you see og:title filled in [or listed at all].

Looking for two things:

1. I see that users can not upload an image for a review, unless I (admin on site), manually add the image to the review through the admin panel. Is there a way to allow a regular registered member to upload an image with the review, and if the review is approved by staff, it will use the photo submitted?

&

2. I am looking for a way that any time a new review is approved, a comment is automatically made to our site's facebook and/or twitter account. I think the power of this mod would really enhance it automatically shared it with the social sites.

Thanks in advance, love this mod!

I'm not a believer in automated posting, especially when it could amount to many simultaneous posts flooding followers & essentially turning the account into a broadcast feed. That's not social. It seems far more appropriate to highlight a select review here & there with a personal comment and an active discussion but that's just my $0.02 as an enterprise social strategist.

In our next release we'll include a hook location to insert a function after a review has been posted where you could automate an API call to Facebook, Twitter or any other platform. How's that?

Products however do support images. Users can add them via URL, admins via upload. If a user provides a link you can sync the image to save and resize it locally. There is no option for user uploading.

1. Ya for the image uploads in the admin panel I see that. I may be missing it, but can a "registered" usergroup member submit a photo for approval or moderation to go with the review they have submitted to be approved? If not, then I (as an admin) have to either upload or add the url for an image. Not an issue, was just wondering.

2. In regards to the new post upon a new review, that is exactly what I am looking for, that would be perfect! Any ETA on a new release? Thank you so much.

Greatly appreciate the mod Ted, and your response! Cheers :up:

Nothing scheduled but if you build your extension into the core code and tell me where you're hooking in I'll see that we add the hook there so upgrading just takes a few clicks...

I cant see an answer only the questin has anyone worked out how to change the order of the reviews, ie to the latest uploaded rather than reverse alpahbetical order.

Pop open productreviews.php and about a third of the way down is the ranking routine. You can manually change the default.

Hi.

I'm having problems uploading images. I don't know my correct path to past into the options. see the attached image.

I tried out.

Quote:

/public html/images/product images/

still no luck.

Everything else is working great though. manually uploading and adding the url seems to work only.

Also I'll be using this for articles like "my top fives" etc... having those Manfactures, ISBN, where to purchase, options are useless to me. can I replace these with something else?

You need to check with your host. File paths can range to any number of options depending on the provider's setup and there's nothing we know here that will help with that.

You can relabel the fields in the templates. The AdminCP doesn't change as easily but only you see that.
