Still no reviews/ratings?

[OC2PS]

PS doesn't have product reviews/ratings out of the box? This makes it the only major ecommerce software without this feature.

 

I don't think this is what the marketers meant when they said "differentiate your product"

[Snade]

There are customer reviews(comments) in prestashop.

[OC2PS]

Comments is not quite the same. Reviews without ratings (stars) are not very useful.

 

Ideally it should be something like this: http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/114579-multilingual-reviews/page__fromsearch__1

Customer image upload for review would be nice too.

Hi,

 

I agree with you, an option to make a criteria "text or stars" - or something like that - is missing in productcomments module

 

We have a roadmap so I don't think we will make this in the 1.5 release . You can propose that new feature in the forge or make yourself the modification of that native module, and then send it to us . (If you choose the 2nd solution, I thanks you in advance and don't hesitate to ask me help here or by pm ).

 

One 3rd solution : In fact a module probably already exists in http://addons.prestashop.com , you can take a look there.

Hi Michaël,

that thing you said about modifying the native module then send it to you is very interesting.

 

Is there actually an option, third party modules to be send to you, and then shipped with the prestashop installation?

(if there is, where we can suggest/send modules? )

 

It seems like a great idea to have third party modules, that are chosen and revised by presta team. This guarantees 100% compatibility and no issues, and of cource will expand the prestashop out-of-the box capabilities.

 

I'm sure that many developers will contribute with quality modules, if there is an option their module to end up in the prestashop default installation. Not to mention the hundreds already developed modules for prestashop which can be integrated.

( I can see the button in the installation that now says "install sample products plus 100+ free modules" to be 200+ or even 300+ free modules )

an option to make a criteria "text or stars"

What I am after is text AND stars. If someone wants to review a product, they must rate (stars) it, while writing a review (text) is an additional option, but not required.

 

 

We have a roadmap so I don't think we will make this in the 1.5 release

Understood! I'll be happy if we can get it in 1.5.1 (January?)

 

 

You can propose that new feature in the forge

I do have some time at the moment (as you may have noted from my numerous forum posts and forge tickets), but unfortunately I am not PHP literate...the best I can do is copy-paste stuff, discover items in codes and logically modify them, etc. While I was with Opencart, I did contribute

http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route=extension/extension&filter_username=sooskriszta

and I'd like to contribute here as well, but it's unlikely to be in the form of code

Michaël,

 

I see that you have downgraded this from Major(3) to Minor(4) in forge.

http://forge.prestashop.com/browse/PSFV-104

 

I can live with that given that you have an understanding of the priorities and roadmap, etc that I am not privy to. However, what really hurts is that even as you downgraded the ticket, you did not assign it to anyone...

[Asenar]

Sorry I make several things at the same times

 

Assigned to myself

[OC2PS]

Brilliant!

I vote +1. For me as merchant a very important instrument for customers decide to buy or not.

Michaël,

 

Seeing as you have assigned this to yourself, you may want to have a look at these too:

• http://forge.prestas...browse/PSFV-123
  
• http://forge.prestas...browse/PSFV-122
  
• http://forge.prestas...browse/PSFV-121
  
• http://forge.prestashop.com/browse/PSFV-117

I find this very interesting. There is a reviews, but no ratings by the looks of things. However, I've just opened up the global.css from the new Prestashop theme and there's this:

 

.star {
float: left;
width: 17px;
height: 15px;
overflow: hidden;
text-indent: -999em;
cursor: pointer
}
.star, .star a { background: url(../../../modules/productcomments/img/star.gif) no-repeat 0 0 }
div.star_on a { background-position: 0 -16px }
div.star_hover a, div.star a:hover { background-position: 0 -32px }

 

in the comments section. So I guess it's planned right?

[S7 Media Ltd]

Actually ignore me... it seems you can do star ratings, you have to set a criterion. But I've done that, and when I comment you can click stars but they don't seem to appear. Strange
