Title: Setting up Question & Answer Section
Post by: MoPho on June 05, 2007, 11:10:53 AM
Hello,
I want to set up a question and answer site where users can ask & answer questions and can also rate the usefulness and quality of questions and answers -- similar to yahoo.com/answers

Would this be fairly easy to set up using jReviews?  Would there be other software you would recommend using in conjunction with JReviews to do this? I'm also using CB and I'm on the newbie level with Joomla but am a fairly quick study.
Thanks for your help.

At the moment jReviews requires users to submit both a rating and a comment when submitting a review. Without custom coding it's not possible to get rid of the rating requirement. What you could do is this.

1) Users submit new questions (the equivalent of submitting new content)
2) Users respond to questions and rate the question (the equivalent of submitting a review)
3) Users can vote on a answers usefulness (the equivalent of voting on a review usefulness)
