I'm revisiting this thread after doing some more thinking on how crazy it is that there isn't a good clean vBulletin product/review system.

I'm curious if any of you have seen the product system that is built in to the Huddler platform. It's kind of beautiful. Here's an example of it in action: http://www.head-fi.org/products/senn...650-headphones

It has every feature that I could ever want built in, including related products, "members also have", affiliate links via API's, and member reviews. The only thing I don't see is a comparison engine.

Too bad you can't just purchase the Huddler platform and use it in the vBulletin fashion...

Yes, it looks very nice John.

Now, after two years since thread creation and more or less zero results how about collecting some money to just upgrade gars to vB4?

For me I left this continues loop, and bought iReviews (from vbcover) actually I didn't install it yet, and wish it will give me what I want.

But if you think (all of GARS users) it is better than iReviews, please give me the strong points of the GARS.

Actually, I'm ready to give money to do new product, but I wish it will use vBCMS (as new type) not forums as GARS and iReviews.

I don't think everyone wants to use gars. It looks like it would require a rewrite anyway. The best option in this case would be to have a gars importer.

The vbCMS is just terrible in every aspect, and if I did it over again I would have used wordpress with a bridge mod. I'm pretty sure most would agree and not want to use it for anything.

Whatever forumsmods was doing looked very promising, but unfortunately that project looks to be somewhat abandoned at this point.

I know vBCMS is terrible, but can be fixed.
I'm trying to fix my copy to suits my needs, wish me a good luck in that

GOODLUCK !!!........ Even in case that you'll not succeed 100%, your try is worth of all. I never studied programming. But I was trying... searching... testing... kicking the wall when something was not working, but I never gave up.... Be sure that some day you'll remember my words. Go ahead and trust yourself.

Thank you my neighbor

Actually I'm computer engineer, but unfortunately I left the programming from 10 years !!, so the plugin system and hooks and vb functions are new world for me, but I'm trying

Thanks again.

Well.... if everything goes well, I'll release SL (SlimLine) Reviews by tomorrow night. For those who have seen my SL Classifieds, they'll find the same simple interface, with most of the features that an average admin needs for his community.

If you expect to find different rating questions as my original (unfinished) Reviews mod, sorry but you'll be disappointed. But as I seen almost 9/10 of sites want to review specific things: eg games, books, autos etc. In this case common rating questions for all categories are ok for them.

And as a final notice. There is an old saying in my country: "Half is much better than nothing".

Please note that the demo is setup for game reviews. All data on the right side are extra fields so can be changes. The same for rating questions.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
