Average Product Rating (Support Thread)

[DivaVocals]

There I no support thread for the Average Product Rating module (https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=398). Creating this one so one will exist going forward..

Now that there is a support thread for the Average Product Rating module I have some questions to ask of the community. For the most part the natural works fairly well. However it doesn't seem to display the total reviews count.

I've cheated to work around this by doing the following:

<?php // 2P modified BOF - Average Product Rating
  echo '<p class="reviewCount">';
  if ($flag_show_product_info_reviews_count == 1) {
    echo TEXT_CURRENT_REVIEWS . ' <strong>' . $reviews->fields['count'] . '</strong><br />';
    $stars_image_suffix = str_replace('.', '_', zen_round($reviews_average_rating->fields['average_rating'] * 2, 0) / 2); // for stars_0_5.gif, stars_1.gif, stars_1_5.gif etc.
    $average_rating = zen_round($reviews_average_rating->fields['average_rating'], 2);
    echo TEXT_CURRENT_REVIEWS_RATING . ' <strong>' . $average_rating . '</strong> ' . zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_IMAGES . 'stars_' . $stars_image_suffix . '.gif', sprintf(BOX_REVIEWS_TEXT_OF_5_STARS, $average_rating));
  } else {
    echo '';
  }
  echo '</p>';
// 2P modified EOF - Average Product Rating ?>

<?php // 2P modified BOF - Average Product Rating
  echo '<p class="reviewCount">';
  if ($flag_show_product_info_reviews_count == 1) {
    echo $reviews_split->display_count(TEXT_DISPLAY_NUMBER_OF_REVIEWS_ALT);
    echo '<br />';
    $stars_image_suffix = str_replace('.', '_', zen_round($reviews_average_rating->fields['average_rating'] * 2, 0) / 2); // for stars_0_5.gif, stars_1.gif, stars_1_5.gif etc.
    $average_rating = zen_round($reviews_average_rating->fields['average_rating'], 2);
    echo TEXT_CURRENT_REVIEWS_RATING . ' <strong>' . $average_rating . '</strong> ' . zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_IMAGES . 'stars_' . $stars_image_suffix . '.gif', sprintf(BOX_REVIEWS_TEXT_OF_5_STARS, $average_rating));
  } else {
    echo '';
  }
  echo '</p>';
// 2P modified EOF - Average Product Rating ?>

Then added this to the /includes/languages/YOUR_TEMPLATE/english.php file:

  define('TEXT_DISPLAY_NUMBER_OF_REVIEWS_ALT', '<div style="display: none;">Displaying <strong>%d</strong> to <strong>%d</strong> (of </div>Current Reviews: <strong>%d</strong><div style="display: none;"> reviews)</div>');

This works, but it would be nice to know the right correction.. In the name of full disclosure I am using the TPP module but I do not have the average product reviews displaying inside of tab. The average product reviews are displayed just below the "Add to Cart" button.

I use this mod too and it does display the count, but I've also moidifed it so can't say right now how to do it... when I get home from the North Fire I can take a look and post what I did. I also have it after the cart buttons.

Also the display when there are no reviews seems a bit off.. I would expect to see the current reviews count to display (as "0") and the average reviews to not display at all. Instead, this module doesn't display the current reviews and displays the average reviews as "0" with the alt tag for a missing image.

Your image is totally different then mine so may be a bit confusing... I modified the layout and code a bit to get what I wanted..

This is what's under the button...

<!--bof Reviews button and count--> 

<?php 
  if ($flag_show_product_info_reviews == 1) { 
    // if more than 0 reviews, then show reviews button; otherwise, show the "write review" button 
    if ($reviews->fields['count'] > 0 ) { ?> 
<div id="productReviewLink" class="center"> 
 
<?php // 2P modified BOF - Average Product Rating 
  if ($flag_show_product_info_reviews_count == 1) { 
    $stars_image_suffix = str_replace('.', '_', zen_round($reviews_average_rating->fields['average_rating'] * 2, 0) / 2);  
    $average_rating = zen_round($reviews_average_rating->fields['average_rating'], 2); 
   echo zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE . 'images/rat_' . $stars_image_suffix . '.gif', sprintf(BOX_REVIEWS_TEXT_OF_5_STARS, $average_rating)) . '<br />Based on '. $reviews->fields['count'] . ' Reviews</div>'; 
    
  } else { 
    echo ''; 
  } 
// 2P modified EOF - Average Product Rating ?> 
<?php } else { ?> 
<div id="productReviewLink" class="center"><?php echo zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE . 'images/rat_0.gif', 'No reviews!') ; ?></div> 
<?php  
  } 
} 
?>

To save space, I only use words if there are reviews!

Both my flexible centerbox and sidebox plugins come with a version of average rating. Might wanna take a look, easy to place anywhere by replacing one line of code to $_GET['products_id'] and requiring the tpl file.

Just a thought!

What is the problem? apart from the missing star image, the module will not do anything unless you have reviews for the product you linked to.
