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.

No source code at all. I made sure the proper file was in the admincp folder and loaded the admincp/productforums.php directly with same result: white page. And yes to the superuser part as well. Thanks for the quick reply and trying to resolve my issue

Next try loading admincp/productforums.php directly (remember, there are two files with this name, one in the admin, one in your main folder).

Also be sure you are viewing as a superuser [although others should get an error].

There's an issue with pulling up the script apparently, but as it doesn't exist elsewhere we have to debug on your server.

Take a look at your error logs as a first step, hopefully they show an error.

If not, add the code

echo "start...<br>"; die;

right after <?php

Load the script and you should see it print start... we can keep adding tags until we find the issue.

Interesting...

The meta tags are of course pulled from the first post which is a questionable description anyways [how many threads have a concise 250 character intro to start the discussion?]

The major engines go well beyond this meta tag to make their description, and identify what's a duplicate product, but it's a valid optimization point that we'll take a look at for a future release.

You could but it would require modifying the plugin to expose that variable to the showthread template . We'll add this in a future release of course.
