Testimonial Manager is a stand alone module and does not have anything to do with the default Zen Cart reviews.Quote:

For anyone interested there is a way around to showing the testimonials on the main page if your site has the side boxes disabled on the main page. It's a little bit of work but we just did it with one of my websites and it works great.
Using Banner Display Groups set a banner to display only on the main page. We use the group 4 for this.
Look for this code on the tpl_main_page.php file
and replace forPHP Code:<!-- bof BANNERS GROUPSET 4 -->
<?php
if (SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET4 != '' && $banner = zen_banner_exists('dynamic', SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET4)) {
if ($banner->RecordCount() > 0) {
?>
<div id="bannerFour" class="banners">
<?php echo zen_display_banner('static', $banner); ?>
</div>
<?php
}
}
?>
<!-- eof BANNERS GROUPSET 4 -->
This piece of code will allow to show this banner only on the main page.PHP Code:<!-- bof BANNERS GROUPSET 4 -->
<?php
if ($this_is_home_page && (SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET4 != '' && $banner = zen_banner_exists('dynamic', SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET4))) {
//if (SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET4 != '' && $banner = zen_banner_exists('dynamic', SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET4)) {
if ($banner->RecordCount() > 0) {
?>
<div id="bannerFour" class="banners">
<?php echo zen_display_banner('static', $banner); ?>
</div>
<?php
}
}
?>
<!-- eof BANNERS GROUPSET 4 -->
Now go to banner manager and add the testimonials you want to show on main page in the html text box. Customize to your taste. It's a little bit of work entering manually each testimony but is a one time job and it does the trick, which is showing rotating testimonials on the main page.

Hope this helps :D
Just like the title says:
I don't have a Testimonial Manager under tools in my admin panel...therefore I can't delete or edit testimonials.
The admin folder for this module on my local is the same as my server; they are both named "admin". (I haven't got around to renaming the one on my server yet for security purposes)
So...they are named the same thing, that can't be the issue. Why don't I have a Testimonial Manager under Tools in my admin panel?
Also...I already renamed every instance of YOUR_TEMPLATE in this module before I uploaded.
Thanks!
Make sure you have uploaded ALL of the following files/foldersQuote:

Ha! Ha! That did it Clyde...thank you very much for helping me. I had uploaded the Includes and it's sub-directories (which is what you usually only need to do with these modules) and did not have those Admin files uploaded. But I think it will be good now.Quote:

Would be nice if the customer could choose which order they are leaving a testimonial for and that then adjusted a database field.
Customers could then have a notice in their account that they hadn't left a testimonial for their order, and then once they did leave one, the notice would go away.
What you think?
