Hi

Thanks for the excellent module.

Wondering if you can add Verified Buyer feature. It would make reviews from buyer more trustworthy.

Suggestion. Thanks

[datakick]

@Luv verified purchase / buyer will be in upcoming version of the module. I've already implemented it, but I want to test it a little bit longer, because this release requires database change. You can test it on my demo account - front / back

[Luv]

@datakick checked the demo site, exactly what it should look, perfect.

Happy you took into consideration.

@datakick I see the folder /themes/default-bootstrap/cache filled with 1300+ css files named revws-.css and v_431_.css All these seem to be coming from the revws module - can you please check it out?

Thanks.

Edit: several files of both types are getting created each second!

[datakick]

@chandra sorry about that, I forgot to remove code that forces new css regeneration. Please edit file revws.php and delete line #464:

$data .= time();

You can safely delete all revws-**.css files from cache directory. The easiest way is to clear cache from Advanced Parameters > Performance

[Chandra]

Thanks @datakick I think this has fixed the revws-xxxx.css generation but I still see several v431xxx.css getting created. I see 3 files ending in all and 1 file ending in print

[datakick]

@chandra that one's not generated by my module

[Chandra]

@datakick Ok that css has a lot of styles starting with .revws- Wonder where this is coming from.

[datakick]

@chandra I believe this is CCC bundle

I've just released new version 1.0.9 which includes couple of bugfixes, and 2 new features:

Verified purchase - review has new boolean field named verified_buyer. This will be set to true if customer really purchased product associated with review. This is determined at the time of review submission - there must exists already shipped order. This means that reviews submitted before product purchase will not be marked as verified. Administrator can check/uncheck this field from back-office. Verified purchases are highlighted in review list.

Criteria breakdown - If you use multiple review criteria, you can now show them on review list. You can choose on of the 3 ways to display criteria breakdown.

1. Don't show criteria breakdown at all -- this is current behavior, only average ratings is shown
2. Show criteria on top, in single line separated by divider
3. Show criteria on right side

@datakick I've not installed the latest version yet, but criteria breakdown features is great. Thank you for your work !!

[Luv]

Oh,

Thank you very much for the new features to include, excellent.

Will test and update.

This keeps looking better :)

@datakick does this module now require bootstrap or something? In my teststore it doesn't display anymore correctly :(

For me the colors are no more working... And as you can see the stars arent floating...

[datakick]

@wakabayashi could you pm me your test server url?

[wakabayashi]

Well I just checked with 1.0.8. There wan't this issue for me. So I guess there is a new bug somewhere or a totally new concept with bootstrap!? (I dont use bootstrap in my theme - dont ask my why :D)

Edit: it works now

[Luv]

Same issue as reported @wakabayashi.

[Luv]

My bad sorry, after deleting the older css file from the theme folder worked prefectly.

Sorry again.

[wakabayashi]

I have the feeling that revws moule is sending email to customer, when a review is approved. Even I don't ask for approving. Could this be, cause I imported them? Then they still need approving. Some my customer will make eyes :)

[wakabayashi]

It also seems to me, that module has a problem to understand if categories or product were related to a criteria. It always showed correctly something like "73 categories". No there is suddenly something like "Applies to no product". I checked the database. The category relations are still there...

Thanks @Kleijn36, very much appreciated. I've merged your pull request, and it will be part of the next release.

New version 1.0.10 has just been released. This one fixes some css caching bugs and introduces new hook called displayRevwsReview

You can call this hook anywhere in your theme to show specific review. As an example I'll show you how to add featured review to your homepage:

edit file /themes/yourtheme/index.tpl and add something like this

``` ...

Featured review

{hook h='displayRevwsReview' review=2}

... ```

You can customize the review layout a bit by passing these parameters - review - id of a review to display. This is required parameter - displayCriteria - how to render criteria breakdown. Expects one of inline | side | false values. Default value is the one set up in your settings. This is optional parameter. - displayReply - if we should render shop reply (if exists). Expects either true or false. Default value is true. Optional parameter

example:

{hook h='displayRevwsReview' review=2 displayCriteria='inline' displayReply=false}
