From In-Portal User Manual

Current revision

This tab lists all reviews of the topic, and allows the administrator to manage them. Reviews are user responses to the topic, they are similar to posts and in some instances they are redundant. However, they can be used to collect feedback from the front-end users, to provide details of the ratings, and for a few other purposes. Reviews have their own status, independent from the topic. They can be active, pending or disabled. The idea is very similar to the topic status – only active reviews are displayed on the post listing page, or wherever specified in the theme design. The category permissions specify the status of a new review created on the front-end.

• Enable HTML? – this check box enables or disables HTML code in the review body. When checked, it will render the HTML (for example, a <B> tag will actually make the text bold). When unchecked, it will display the HTML as regular text (the <B> tag will appear exactly as ‘<B>'). This is a very important setting, since some HTML tags can break the page layout, and in some instances can be a security concern (the Java Script, for example).
• Review ID -this field is a read-only unique system ID of the review.
• Created by* - this field contains the name of the user who submitted the review. This information will be displayed, along with the text of the review and the date, on the front-end, unless specified otherwise in the active theme. The administrator may change the review author by entering a different user name in this field, or by selecting it through a user picker (shortcut to a user icon will pop up the picker in a new window).
• Review Text* - this field contains the main body of the review. To use the online HTML editor, click on the ‘Editor' button next to this field.
• Status - this is the status field of the review.
• Priority – this field contains the numerical priority of the review.
• Created on – this field contains the creation date of the review. It is automatically set by the system when the review is submitted, however it can be changed by the administrator. The date can be entered directly into the field, or by using the visual calendar tool.
• Created at - this field contains the creation time of the review. It is automatically set by the system when the review is submitted, however it can be changed by the administrator.
