Most, if not all, reported bugs and those I found on my own have been fixed. This version is suitable for production sites because all major changes to the beta have been made and upgrading to future versions shouldn't break functionality. Major changes included folder/file structure as well as changes to the theme files.
I am very happy to announce the release of CSV Import for Joomla and jReviews. The release of this new extension was made possible through the partnership between jReviews and NakedJoomla.com.
I have decided to release this new version very quickly because there were some new important bugs in 1.2.09. Please download the new version from the client area. The advanced search module also has some new improvements. It allows filtering by sections and has some css settings for sections and categories to make them easier to distinguish in the select list. Thanks Jan for bugging me and sponsoring this feature.
Favorites lists, image management and improved e-mail notification are just some of the new things we have added.
jReviews 1.2 RC1: More features plus stability
Just a few weeks after the impressive release of 1.1.4, which was packed with new features, we are happy to announce 1.2 Release Candidate 1 (RC1). We have added new features and fixed most, if not all of the bugs reported in 1.1.4
The new features are:
Weighted ratings: the administrator can assign weights to each of the rating criteria to show an average weighted rating instead of the regular average. We have added a one-click button to convert all of your existing reviews to weighted averages if you decide to take advantage of this feature.
Custom fields ACL: using Joomla's access groups you can now specify which groups have access to individual custom fields for submission and editing.
Image upload resizing:it's now possible to specify a maximum pixel width for uploaded images, to avoid having images that are too large when viewed with the lightbox.
Add more images: it's now possible to add more images in edit mode. Decide who has access to content editing in the backend, and they'll be able to add more images.
There are other improvements. Continue reading for the complete changelog.
