Manage Product Reviews - Other Settings

Display Settings

  • Show Rating Summary at the Top of the Product Details Page - Check this option if you want to show a rating summary on the product details page.
  • Display Average Rating on Category & Search Results Pages - This allows you to show the average product rating (if any) when products are listed in the storefront on pages such as the search results pages, category pages, etc.
  • Number of Reviews to be Displayed on the Product Details Page - Here you can enter the number of reviews that you would like to show on the product details page. All reviews will be displayed in a sub-page. For example, if 12 reviews have been submitted and approved for a product, and you enter “3” here, then only the 3 reviews are shown on the product details page, whereas all of the reviews are shown when the customer clicks on the View All Reviews link.
  • All Reviews Must be Reviewed by an Admin Before They are Published - Check this option if you want to check and approve every review that is posted on your Web site before it is shown in the storefront. Otherwise, product reviews are shown immediately after they have been submitted. Use the Bad Words filter (see below) to automatically take care of common “bad language”.
  • Lock Posting Options - Use this feature to limit the amount of reviews that the same customer can post. You can specify how many reviews each customer can post for each product. You can determine who the customer is by registering the customer’s IP address, using a cookie saved to the customer’s computer, or both. Note that in many cases Internet users are assigned a dynamic IP address by their Internet Service Provider and therefore only using the IP address may not work in limiting the amount of times the same customer can post a review for the same product.
