The only thing is I don't see the 'star' images anywhere, where are they meant to show up too?

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.

As admin I did not had any troubles posting a review.

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

Code:

// if(strlen($comments) < $vbulletin->options['prodforums_minreview']){ $errors .= "Your review comments must be at least ". $vbulletin->options['prodforums_minreview'] ." characters long.<br />"; } // must have rating picked

Attempting to remove all files and reinstall now

OK just removed everything, reinstalled a new download, same error.

Core settings and Style settings work fine.

Here is the code as it looks in Notepad++

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.

deverill2010 07-08-2012 08:28 PM

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