I have posted both a request for troubleshooting and a review about a module I have been having trouble with in the Module Repository "Be the first person to review Module XXXXXX".
They never show up!
While I understand moderators get busy and things happen, the reviews of modules in the Module Repository is critical to XOOPS users when trying to determine what modules to use on their sites.
With the "Module Dev Forge" site down and no restore time in sight and the XOOPS AddOn Site down, the only option is to install a module, fiddle with it and hope it works. If this method is how XOOPS intends it to be, then so be it. But if there is a problem with Module Reviews, then maybe this problem needs to be addressed?
Is this a complaint? Yes! Is it a valid complaint that could hurt XOOPS in the long run? In my opinion...YES. Who wants to test modules that might or might not work IF there are people willing to write a review that may help other XOOPS user but they just don't get posted?
Did I make a mistake posting a troubleshooting request in the review section? Probably but if there is no response from the dev of the module at their website, as a group maybe we can find answers.
