Will this extension work with other third party "related item" extensions? I am working on a site similar to gamespot.com and for each game I want to use jreviews, but I also need to show other content connected with that game.
As long as you correctly use the related items content module it works fine with jReviews which uses content. *correctly* means this module reads the meta keywords to find which items are related. Just make sure to fill those out correctly.
Also, I read a post on here, where someone asked if the reviews would be viewable in the community builder control panel. I'd really like to see something like this in the future... You mentioned you don't have the time to work on it and kind of suggested that someone else could do it...
A user made this available a while back. I still haven't had the time to put my own version together. You can find it
here.
But I thought this extension was encoded and not editable?
Only two files are encoded to protect the license code and access to the administration. This does not prevent you in any way from customizing the code. Furthermore, creating a plugin or module simply requires access to the database to pull the data and you could do that even if jReviews was 100% encoded which it isn't. I haven't found the first person yet who was limited in any way from getting the changes he wanted done. I encourage users to customize the code to meet their needs and have helped, beyond the call of duty, on many occasions. You can find many examples on this forum if you read the tips&tricks board
