Overview

Product Reviews are displayed on the product detail page of the website after being approved by an Administrator. The reviewer's name and location (optional) are displayed under the review, as well as the submission date.

Enabling Product Reviews 

Product Reviews are configured via the Content Management System (CMS). There are two widgets which can be added to the product detail template: 

• Product Rating widget (optional)- displays the average rating of the product, as well as buttons prompting the user to Read or Write a review.
• Product Reviews widget - displays recently approved reviews, and houses the actual review entry fields.
