Hi Ted, I have upgraded my version and added a category and product with good results. The only problem I'm seeing is that the review comments are not including any (returns) in the body of the text. So this needs to be fixed in the output.

Here is an example:

owning_y0u - thanks for spotting that!

jshallo - we're on it and will issue a sub-release.

Ramsesx - for now we're going to make the count linkable to a search and will work on a tab for 1.2.0 in a few weeks

Any other comments, changes or issues guys? We will have 1.1.2 out this weekend to fix these small, but important issues.

How does this mod work?
Rather than waiting for a user to open up a new thread talking about a product or service, you create a single ?master? thread through your Admin Panel. This automatically creates a product record which shows up in a formatted, easy to follow section above the newly created thread.

Users looking for information can then turn to this single thread to get an overview snapshot, post a follow up question, and of course click over to write their own review or browse the existing ones.
Is it possible to have users create product records?

I'm also thinking that it would be great if we could use something like that as virtual shop on our forums, even without shopping carts. Some people may be interested to use our forums for starting their businesses.

Awesome mod.. Will install when it looks like most bugs are worked out.

Some Suggestions:
1) Thumbnails on the review listings and review search listings pages
2) WYSIWYG is pretty important for creating reviews (already requested)
3) Ability to add more than 1 picture, additional views of product, etc (possible now?)

Thx!

Without knowing the mod inside out - it would be great if there could be more than just reviews posted for the product. For example, some people may want to ask a question, others post a comment, perhaps link to a related news story, or even related product.

Not sure if this is something that has been considered, but I guess it would encourage further activity around the product reviews. So for example, a user can select if their post is a review, a comment, a question, or additional information.

Great mod though Ted_S. Thanks.

EDIT: +1 for allowing users to add their own products.

I would like to see the input for the review wider, more like the size of the a normal forum post window rather than a small box. I know I can edit this myself but, I figured I would suggest it.

Yup.

You can enable this feature per usergroup to give mods or store owners access.

The link appears on the product review over-view page.

This will be changed when we add the WYSIWYG editor

None of those exist yet but all three are now noted. Thanks!
