SmartTabs and Product Reviews

[lesliekirk]

I have the SmartTabs set up on the PROD Page to display the Product Description and to render the EP Toolkit Product Reviews in another tab. There seems to be an interesting dilemma, when someone clicks on the review link, the page reloads to display the fields to write the review but the page resets back to the displaying the first tab. If you click the Reviews tab again, the fields are there.

You can see the behavior here: https://www.crohns.net/page/C/PROD/DNA1006

This looks like it's going to need some javascript/jquery that's way above my pay grade.

Hi Leslie,

Have you tried adding the full URL with the hash for the tab you want open for the URL of the review link? If that does not work, then I may not have a function in the plugin to accommodate for hashes. I can try to revisit the plugin to add that functionality in.

Instead of trying to display 2nd tab when you click review, I'd rather try to show review form on click (without page reloading)

I don't see the back-end code, but most likely you have some kind of conditional check for the query string and decides: to show the input form or not. You can output it by default and keep style="display: none;" on it until you click the link.

I'd like to do that too, but it seem that this is how Bill's code works.

Matt, it would be awesome as a stopgap method. Off-subject question for you Matt, are Reviews going to become part of the core software or is it still going to rely on third-party modules. Either way is great, just wondering.

Hi Leslie,

There are no current plans for a native reviews module, however my current recommendation would be to use the Ratings & Reviews module [ http://apps.miva.com/ratings-reviews.html ].

..,.and of course there is Easy Review, which, by using a model display for review authoring doesn't require fidgeting with the template code for responsive.

Remind me please which 3-party reviews the Easy Review can import?

By default, it will AUTOMATICALLY import sebenza, but we've been able to relatively easily import PowerReviews, RateVoice, and the tool kit version. (Uses a simple Import/Export file for all non-sebenza review -- does not require doing a SQL import like some others :)

Leslie, can you show me the code between
<!-- IMPORTANT begin remove these 5 lines if you do not want non-logged in, anonymous customers to review //-->
and
<!-- IMPORTANT end remove these lines if you do not want non-logged in customers to review //-->

and also area around (with IF that is checking why should we display the form)
<!-- begin review inputs //-->
and
<!-- end review inputs //-->

I'll do you one better, here is the link to the entire configuration http://www.emporiumplus.com/v5/tk_rr.txt

Try this

replace:


<!-- IMPORTANT begin remove these 5 lines if you do not want non-logged in, anonymous customers to review //-->
 or
<a href="&mvt:global:sessionurl;Store_Code=&mvta:global:store:code;&amp;Screen=PROD&amp;Product_Code=&mvta:global:Product_Code;&amp;review=1" title="Anonymously review this product but no personalized coupon can be mailed to you without your login info. Anonymous reviews require store approval before public display to discourage spam and obscenities.">
Write an anonymous review</a>
<!-- IMPORTANT end remove these lines if you do not want non-logged in customers to review //-->


with:



<!-- IMPORTANT begin remove these 5 lines if you do not want non-logged in, anonymous customers to review //-->
 or
<span id="click-me-to-write-a-review" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline; cursor: pointer;">Write a review</span>
<!-- IMPORTANT end remove these lines if you do not want non-logged in customers to review //-->




---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


replace:

<!-- begin review inputs //-->
<mvt:if expr="g.review">



with:

<!-- begin review inputs //-->
<div id="my-super-nice-review-form" style="display: none;">




---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

replace:

</mvt:if>
<!-- end math challenge input //-->

<!-- end review inputs //-->


with:

</div>
<!-- end math challenge input //-->
<!-- end review inputs //-->

It looks like the site has a much older jQuery file but I suspect this may still work. Here's to trying. Thanks!
