Testimonial Manager Support Thread

[clydejones]

Just wondering if there is a way to have the testimonials for a certain product show up on the product page itself? i am sure there is a bit of coding to do this...but wondering just how hard it would be?

For example I have "Jazzy Jeans" there are 3 comments on my testimonials page for these jeans....I would like to have JUST those (3) comments show up on my Jazzy Jeans product page underneath the product images....can this be done?!?!?

THanks!!!

You'd need to use the Zen Cart built-in review system to do this.

How can I remove Testimonials from all pages except the Store Front?

I'm not sure what you mean.

A random testimonial appears in a sidebox. If that testimonial is selected it will appear on its own page.

You can select view all testimonials and ALL of your testimonials will show on the "ALL Testimonials" page. You can also chose to view individual testimonials by clicking on the title of the testimonial.

I apologize for not being clearer.

I have the Testimonial side box displaying, but I only want it to display on the Store Front, not other pages.

First got to tell we love the Testimonial Manager- Great Job!

We are using Zen Cart 1.3.8a, Testimonial Manager 1.5.0 (just downloaded today), and Apple Zen template. Other add-ons which are all up-to-date include Image Handler2, Admin Settings, Admin Profiles, Monthly Sales Reports, Sales Reports with Graphs, Sales Reports, Google Analytics, and shortly CAPTCHA and the CAPTCHA Testimonial 1.5 fix.

After a clean re-install, I have two issues which still plague me and a couple Zen Cart admin display bugs which are irksome but acceptable.

The site is www.mustangseats.com/cart/index.php

The testimonials look fine on the main page. (lower right hand side)

However the issues arise when you click to view the testimonial.

Issue #1: When the testimonial is displayed the testimonials width is to wide and disrupts the template. I cannot find in any of the stylesheets where I can change the width of the testimonials and the only entry in the forum was from a couple years ago from a person from asia who had other issues.

Issue #2: Page title when viewing the testimonials- META_TAG_TITLE_PAGE_TESTIMONIAL_MANGER<testimonial title> Not exactly sure what caused this. Not sure how to fix it.

The curiosities on the Testimonial Manager under Admin-->Tools are:
Issue#1: when clicking on Add Testimonial. The *Required is displayed twice next to the Author's Name, Author's E-Mail, and Testimonial Title fields- since this is the first time I have seen this add-on, I am not sure if this is intentional or not.
Issue#2: In the Admin Settings add-on, Permissions, Testimonial Manager is listed twice and both need to be marked in order for any of the other admins on Mustang's site.
Like I said these issues do not impact the functionality of the tool, they are just curiosities and unexpected.

However on the width issue and page title issue any help would be appreciated.

Hi, clyde

Might I understand in this way: built-in reviews are on product-level while yours testimonial manager on site-level.

Thanks again for the nice add-on,

That is correct.

thanks for your mod. This is not a major issue, but when i add in the code into meta_tags.php file I get this error on my site

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CASE in /home/public_html/store/includes/languages/english/meta_tags.php on line 56

any thoughts on this or how to fix it, I removed the code for now

the file I edited was in /includes/languages/english/meta_tags.php

thanks!
