Check the source on the page and insure the images are in the right folder for your forum.

Here's how it works...

Someone [an admin, a member, whoever] creates a product.

Then other people [members] come in and write reviews for that product.

Thus what you end up with is structured product reviews so rather than trying to sort through 500,000 pages of random posts, people coming to your site can view a "master" product page with the reviews following it.

If you just want to let people review whatever they feel like without products you would need an unstructured approach. That's not an extension of this mod, it's an entirely different app and technically a reduction.

This bug is related to the editor which has far too many permutations and should never have been added :D

Should be fixed in 1.3.0 due out soon but in the meantime you can remove the check by editing forum/productforums.php to either comment out or remove line 382

Ok well I've got no idea what would be throwing out that error from your server / install but it's not the script [incomplete end statements are critical, meaning if one has it, everyone would also have it].

If you try removing all of the function between start and end you can debug block by block.

I've got it, I didn't upload it to my custom style but the main images folder instead doh!

Ted I don't know if you will help but if you don't ask you don't get.

How would I go about pulling the image to show on the product forums page? So it would be the image of the product and the the title etc to the right of it?

You wait for 1.3.0.

Or you hack in fields for thumbnails to the admin, query hooks on the front end and change the template output to include them.

Ah heck I'll wait for 1.3.0 then lol. I'm just glad it's working for me now! :D

Can someone assist- this mod broke my Mobile template. http://www.beektime.com/forum.php

On a separate note- what is the easiest and most logical way to have members suggest products to review? Sub forum? Email? Just looking for the best practice.

You'll need to be more specific. "Broke" is not something we can diagnose, especially since the mod doesn't have any specific mobile functionality.

Allow members to add products [global and usergroup level setting]. Then approve the ones you want to add.

Where on the front end do they add products? I can't seem to find this.

I've come accross one thing.

I posted a review under another users account which for some reason went into moderation (it should of just been posted) I don't have reviews set to be moderated by the way.

However when I try to approve the post it says - You did not select any posts to which the action you picked can be applied. even though I am selecting the post.

I also checked and this review/post is not pending to be moderated in the reviews in your back end.

So at the moment I have no way of approving this review/post..

Hi Ted, so that is a confirmed bug? Only happens to some people or you can replicate it?

deverill2010, do you happen by any chance to use CloudFare on your site?

I think this may be my issue. Its strange that a re-install fixed the issue for you.

Is there a way to hide some fields? Like for example I don´t need or want some fields like SKU / Park Number and others because they don´t apply to the products I want to add. It would be nice to be able to turn this off as a feature. Otherwise the plugin its almost perfect besides the bug I mentioned.

Nope I don't use cloudflare and never have done.

I'm not having that issue anymore, I have however removed a load of mods from when I last installed it to today. So it may of been one of them conflicting with it. It's working fine for me now.

Which version of vbulletin do you run?

Sorry Kirk, that code was just the snipped from the part where the error is coming from. The entire file has downloaded fine with 1397 lines of code in it.

That does not work. When I uncomment that line I now get:
Oh great, you had to go and press THAT button. There goes the whole site. Just kidding... We had an issue posting your review, please try again or contact support and use code 164250-B

Ted/Kirk,

Here's my file from adminCP. I am at a loss with this one.

It's confirmed but it's not global. Most sites don't have the issue, some do, 1.3 fixes it either way.

vBulletin uses a templating function. Remove what you don't like, add what you want. Every dynamic element is more load for your server and more coding which means less actual features... We follow the 90/10 rule under the assumption that no one should use a mod out of the box. :up:

Looks like the script is really not seeing any message, thus it can't post the review thread. You'll need to wait until 1.3 comes out [soon] to get past this.

That makes two of us although as I said in my last post, termination errors are global. If there was a problem in the script everyone would get the message which leads me to believe there's an issue with your upload / config / server settings.

Your forum rules will override any settings in the mod [vBulletin > mods]. Check the forum reviews go too.

You have to enable the option per usergroup. Then it shows up in the productforums.php file or where ever else you chose to add the link.

Ok, so I installed this yesterday and created allot of products, but I can?t use it then for now as nobody can post any review.

When will 1.3 be out? I guess I will not lose any products I created already right?

Thanks

I know waiting sucks but it's that or chase down what's flagging this issue.

You won't lose any products turning off the mod just dont uninstall it.

1.3 will be out soon... No exact date until we finish all of the features, but figure a week or two.

This may sound strange but I do prefer to chase the issue. Because Im very curios why it works on most Vbulletin like you said and it does not in my own, in particular when I have no other plugins installed. Just upgraded to the latest VB and issue is still there. I also have basically none customization. Just a theme installed.

The issue must be surely a JavaScript issue or the mod not detecting any data send in the field. It must be a very small and easy to fix bug. My guess its not counting characters correctly and it assumes always the length is not correct.

Yes, waiting for versions is fine, if you have a temporary fix which I don?t. Im even more curious now because the other poster that said had the same issue like me fixed it by uninstalling and re-installing the mod. Something I can?t try because I have products already added and would lose them.

Nibb I'm on the latest version 4.2 pl2 I don't know why it wasn't working then but is now. Very strange but in grateful either way!

There are really only two things left I can think of, first of which is are you running the latest version of vB4, if not update to the latest build, it's a long shot but there it is.

The second of which and this one is a real long shot, maybe your localhost PHP setup is a bit quirky, in this case try changing line 1387 of admincp/productforums.php to this:
It shouldn't normally make a difference, my localhost install works fine with that line both ways, but you never know, when all else fails, maybe it's time to turn to the extraordinary!

Kirk, IT WORKED! Thank you so much!

Ihave to say I love how easy it is to customise the product page. Nothing like trying to edit colours an shizzle in VB.

I'm quite chuffed with what I've done, fits in with my new skin perfectly :)

Ha I'm loving it I'm well into it now. Sorry for my over excitement, I have been looking for something like this for ages!

Ted a wee customisation.. Is there anyway to make new reviews post with a prefix? I have a prefix set in the reviews forum but I'm manually having to edit the thread of each review and assign a prefix. I only have one prefix enabled so is there anyway when a review is created, to make it use the prefix?

Well that is good news, I am very pleased for you and you are welcome, now get on and enjoy the mod, it is one of the best here. :)

For others having this problem, was it the alteration to the file that worked?

I'll indulge your curoisyt then...

From what we've figured out you're correct, there's something up with the script count and the comments being passed to the right field name.

The solution is to accept the message element directly:

and then check if we need to use it later in the script [we all filter out all but basic html here, just in case].

Oddly the formatting seems to be the same even if the backup is used indicating that the editor still runs to a certain point.

Woot! Adding a static CSS file was much easier for us too.

Gah... We'll add this change to 1.3.0 but why short_tags is even an option is beyond me.

Um, uh. Yes. But I'm not sure how... we'll have to dig into how prefixes are assigned and see about emulating them in. Maybe after 1.3.0 :D

I must say I am having a lot of fun with this Mod. I am trying to customize the productforums.php page and would like to put an x-repeating image into the search bar. How do I edit this code to do that:

:)

And Kirk, yes it was the alteration of the file that worked.

Brilliant, that answered the question I was about to ask. :)

Ted if you want to add a link to a live site using this I don't mind you using mine.

Hey Ted,
I made some yellow stars for use on my own site to replace the green stars as they didn't suit my skin, then noticed you are going to make other colours available. You are welcome to make use of these if they are any good to you.
