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.

Thanks for that, Ted. Any advice on which hook to use? The plugin only seems to want to run on Global Start but that seems to fire to soon so it doesn't pick up the $product['mfrg']. I've tried lots of other hooks and nothing appears.

You can add that to your array of the code is going into this mod directly. If you're placing it elsewhere like in another plugin be sure it's after this mod runs so it's available too you.

The mod runs on the hook showthread_post_start in executionorder 5 so if you put yours higher than that, you should be able to see the value.

You can test by echoing it back.

Hi Ted
Firstly let me say thanks for the great mod we took our time to install and work through all the posts but solved all the issues like $ or £ empty threads etc.
Great work

My question is hopefully simple and I did read some comments on it but couldn't find a firm answer.

Is there a possibility of a WYSIWYG editor or is there a way for me to do that kind of stuff?
I did try to use the normal forum editor and then switch the WYSIWYG to code then copy it all in but it just shows the code in the actual review.


Appreciate any help comments you could provide.

Writing reviews will use the WYSIWYG editor unless you disable that option.

In the admin you get an HTML enabled editor for one off changes but bulk importing is really the best way to go.
