Title: Reviews don't show/How do I add them through phpMyAdmin?
Post by: kden on August 08, 2013, 15:01:31 PM
Joomla 2.5.14,  Virtuemart 2.0.22a

Hello, I've read through several other forum topics but haven't found an answer. I have my store set to guest checkout only, review settings to visible to all, review able to be left by someone who has purchased a product, review must be approved before published. I am using the template Shiny by VirtuePlanet but I cannot imagine that would be part of the issue.

When a review is left by a customer, they see the 'Review has been saved' notice, however there is nothing at all in the backend. I do not see any indication of a review being left as the entire section is blank (see images).

My question is does anybody know how to fix this?
OR Can anybody give me directions how to enter these reviews through the backend or phpMyAdmin? I have some coding experience but not enough to feel comfortable jumping in without any direction.

Did you check your issue on standard Joomla template (beez5)?

For importing data in web shop (reviews etc) you could try to use CSVI Improved.
