Version 1.4.0 has been released to remove the giftery / list it integration of the addon now that service has been discontinued. No upgrade is needed though there have been a few other bug changes since 1.3.5.

Finding Feedback Can be Like a Needle in a Haystack

The more your forum grows, the more of a challenge it becomes to sort through the history and get the full story.

Product Review Forums Brings Structure to the Chaos

As a full-featured product management addon, PRF sits on top of your forum allowing you to create defined products which, unlike individual posts, stay relevant over time. Each comment, review and even product updates filter back into this one spot allowing for a quick and comprehensive overview while the individual discussions rage on as always.

Here's just a few of the many features you'll find in PRF:
  • Bring structure to products with established pages & reviews
  • Reduce the number of repetitive posts from members looking up the same info
  • Increase your traffic with content-rich, seo friendly, product listings
  • Drive revenue by adding your own affiliate links to product listings
  • Increase the activity stream's value with review integration
  • Engage visitors with integrated wishlists from Giftery.me
===========================

Installation is not upload & go... individualized settings are required. Read the install file.

===========================
QUICK TIPS:
===========================

Enabling Product Forums: To show product details and ratings, each product-forum must be enabled in the forum manager.

Adding Products: You may upload products one at a time through the admin [includes an image uploader using GD] or you can bulk import through XML. You can also enable users to add moderated products through a global and usergroup option.

Product Review Index: To access your forum's product overview go to www.yoursite.com/productforums.php - You may want to add a link to this to your navbar or as a tab.

Customization: This addon is made to be customized. To change the color schema see clientscript/vbulletin_css or dive right on in to the templates and phrases.

Powered by Giftery.me: This mod is maintained includes two integrations you should know about. Both can be controlled through the mod options.

Your usergroup permissions and the PRF options.

No. Users add links, not uploaded images. But if you run the sync script it will save them locally and resize for you.

And, is there a way that a usergroup pre-defined, can have access to moderate the approval of a submitted review? I made a specific usergroup that can submit reviews, I want to be able to allow them to approve the product reviews, but I dont want them to have access to my admin panel.
Nope.

Do you get a white page? An error? Endless loading request?

Have you setup all the image folder / path options?

Hey Ted,

Thank you for your support, I'm sure it's a minor mistake on my part...


Right now I am creating a new product review and adding the photo url. So when I go to approve the review, I have to then save the image to my desktop or wherever, and manually upload it through the upload option. From what it looks like, by syncing it, it should allow me to just click that and it will automatically grab those image urls that have been added and add the photos, thumbnails etc automatically. Is that the way its supposed to work?

When I click on "Proceed" in the sync option, (when reviews are waiting to be approved), i get the following:

PHP Code:
Couldnt save the image for - skipping
couldnt save the image for - skipping
couldnt save the image for - skipping

All Done! 
And I still have to manually upload the image. Are my folder permissions off?

That's hardly nothing

Either your folder is not writable (chmod 755 or 777) or the path to it is not correct. Remember the path is from root, not local.

Are you looking for help or just to tell us that you're not using the mod?

I'm having this same issue too. I understand that it follows the forum permissions, but what permissions exactly within VB would also dictate the ability for the products to go into Moderation?

Screen New Reviews? - Set to NO

I've been reading about this mod a lot in the thread, and I'm sure there's a way to skip the moderation queue completely... just struggling to find it through 97 pages.

Suggestions Ted?

Edit:: Also, I'm having issues with the Product_Create template. When someone goes to submit something and a required field isn't complete, it loops back to the page but doesn't generate any error text. I added a static phrase saying something like "If this page reloads after clicking Submit, please check all fields for completion.", but was hoping to add the logic code in to check the specific fields and notify the user.

The modification tries to overrule any forum settings but let's start there... Does the forum or usergroup have any moderation / posting restrictions placed on it? And of course I assume you're using the very latest version?

Is this with any field error or just a specific one?
