    Default Have reviews show with product description?

    Hi,
    I'd like to have the reviews visible at the bottom of my product info pages.
    Now they state how many reviews are written, but need to click to access a review, which not many notice or do.
    Is there a way to do this?
    Thanks....

    To start you will need to add reviews display code to a custom tpl_product_info_display.php from tpl_product_reviews_default.php

    Hey, I have a similar question. I dont want to start a new thread.

    First off, can someone make cobra's answer more noob friendly b/c I have no idea what he said.

    2ndly, I also was wondering if it was possible to show the average star rating for all products in a list? i.e. a customer searches phones and a list of phones show up, however this list will have a x/5 star rating for each product reviewed.

    This is important to me, in that a customer will automatically prefer to purchase a high rated item, which is beneficial for the customer b/c he may buy something that is better then he originally thought to purchase. I basically want a more amazon style review system.

    The review system in amazon is very beneficial for skeptical buyers.

    Another great point about seeing reviews directly at the bottom of a product's page is that they see the reviews instantly. The more postive reviews the more likely they will purchase products from my store.

    now I know its difficult to mimic amazon, however im sure this is possible. Look at this link http://demo.opencart.com/index.php?r...&product_id=49
    Notice how you can click the review tab very easily.

    Another thing I wanted to do was make it so you can see the average x/5 star rating of a product on its product page. Note the avg. x/5 star rating isnt shown, until you click the reviews tab.

    On my website, the star rating images are not showing. It just shows the following text next to the radio buttons.
    OTHER_REVIEWS_RATING_STARS_ONE_ALT OTHER_REVIEWS_RATING_STARS_TWO_ALT OTHER_REVIEWS_RATING_STARS_THREE_ALT OTHER_REVIEWS_RATING_STARS_FOUR_ALT OTHER_REVIEWS_RATING_STARS_FIVE_ALT

    Can someone help.

    Thanks.

    Thanks.
    That means the cart is displaying the PHP variable names instead of the contents of the variable. It can be caused by a number of things but the most common cause is the file was corrupted when uploaded it via FTP.

    Try re-uploading the files and see if that fixes anything.

    If you look at the log files under the SHOP_ROOT/cache folder you may find the error log is telling you which file is not working properly.

    Hope that helps!
