Thanks

Not currently, what did you have in mind, maybe I can include it in the next version?

By default myReviews shows Categories available and each of those category's subcategories on the main reviews page. I would like to only show the main categories available and not their subcategories.

Am I making sense to anybody? I'm a little tired when writing this so I may not make a lot of sense right now.

The code to display the categories are standard for most modules, but I can add a feature to only display the main categories in the index page. What you could also do is to create pics for your categories and set it to not display category listings at all on the index page.

Also how do I hide/remove the homepages & Shop link stuff? I don't really need those and it might confuse my guests.

The homepages and shop links will only show their icons if they have been set.

By default all entries have a overall rating, but you can expand on the rating you want to do on the item by adding category ratings. Does this make sence ?

Hi Riaan,

nice to see u back..

would there be a possibility of being able to choose in admin whether to show the editorial section or not? as my members aren't really needing that.. they just use the description and the review that's all. i may look thru the code and remove it if need be tho so no rush for you.

also i'd like to have an option in admin of not showing the rating bars on the index page or category page, but just show the title & description.. only want the rating bars and description to be shown when the user clicks a review to read..

Well actually I was kinda meaning what you were suggesting here:

The ability to display only the main categories in the index page was what I meant. But of course like you said I could also create a blank img and use it and turn off category listings too. I'll try that and see what happens first before you need to code.

How do I keep the icon legend from appearing on the pages?

Hi m0nty, It's been a hectic few weeks (work work work)

The editorial is actually a admin function come to think of it How it works is that the ability to post an editorial is only available if an administrator is logged in. So if the admin does not post a editorial it will never be available. Log onto your site with a user that is not a admin and check it out Hope this helps.

This is valid, I will put it on the development list

I've been entering a lot of movie titles that begin with the articles "the", "A", "An" etc. Could there be a way that when myReviews alphabetizes the entries it ignores certain article and places the reviews in the order established by the first letter of the first non-article letter.

For instance, "The Greatest Race" would be listed under the G's not the T's.

Is it too late in the process for the module to be able to do that?

Hi Tocpe, sorry that I only come back to you now (very very very busy at work) I will do a quick search for a class that does just this and if it is not too big a problem I will look into incorporating it. The code as it stand is pretty stable and I know I was supposed to already have released it but I will get to it soon. I promise

Cool thanks! No worries, I've been very busy myself, I just ran across that when entering data into the db - up to 346 entries so far! Whew!
