Lets combine funds for a Reviews CMS with business/product directory

[Jaynie]

I'm not sure if this is written in your (Alfa1) functionality list, is possible to add :

1) Users/Members can only rate once
OR
2) Set usergroup permissions so that a we can set a limit on how of times a usergroup can rate

I think regular users rating more than once could cause possible biased ratings on product and place reviews. What does everyone else think?

[Alfa1]

Users should only be able to rate once, or if they are allowed to change their vote, then at least their vote should be counted once. But I think that is logical. It makes no sense to allow users to vote multiple times.

It has been 2 months since your ACS beta 2 was released. I'm not seeing any activity in your tracker since January. Is this project aborted or do you have plans for a Gold release in the near future?
I'm running out of time due to financially pressing issues and am considering to hire developers to commence on this project, if there is no sight on a solution to the feature list in post 1.
Please be so kind to keep us up to date.

I've tried using beta 2 version of forumsmod product, there is some bugs, and i couldn't make it work :/ (bought lifetime license btw). Hopefuly there will be beta3 soon.

Seems he is doing this part time. Sadly this all takes ages for a final mature product...
And the coder I hired to convert GARS has delivered only one screenshot in 4 months.
It looks like we need to stay forever on 3.8.7

I am currently working in Beta 3 version, which is planned to be the last version before gold release.
For this reason a lot of new features were added, specially paid features like pay to publish, pay to stick, pay to bump, pay for new fields and pay for a different style for listing.

GARS importer is done and will be released with ACS Beta 3.

It would be nice to have working product. IMO you should first make everything works with existing features and then add more. Please let us know when can we expect beta 3.

Agree, priority should be a full working basic product and complete instruction instead of a 1000 feature pocketknife all in never finished program.

There already are basic products available: either as TedS his Product Review Forums or as the working beta 2 of Advanced Content System. What sets ACS apart from the rest is its advanced feature set.
Commercial features are vital needs for more than a few admins, because these functions will pay their bills. In my communication with various people to chart their functionality needs, commercial functionality comes up again and again. ACS providing such functions in beta 3 makes a world of difference.
Please do not see it as superfluous bloat, because its not.

Im aware that its better for author to write code 1 time and fix bugs than rewrite it every time when he try to add new feature, but i would give much for more informations about progress.
