Necesary changes in reviews

Here are some request for the theme. 🙂

– Instead of “Review Overview” in the review box, it should have the option to enter the text, or at least something that renders the post title. Google is using this field as the itemreviewed meta.

– Rating values should be from 1 to 100 (or 1 to 10).

Hope u can include this suggestions in future releases. Have a great weeekend.

Hi, Marius.

I’m talking about how Google read the review box.

I know I have the option to give 1 to 10, but Google still read in a 1-5 fashion.
The same for the text, I’m not talking about the review summary, but the phrase itself “Review Overview” in the review box. Google is taking that phrase as the item reviewed meta, so for Google all my reviews are of something called Review Overview.

Thanks and happy New Year!

Hello,

I’m looking into it.

I’m just signing up from notifications to this thread as I’m interested in this too.

I mean I could setup a custom post field to rename the “Review Overview” on each individual post, but I would rather wait until the theme has a custom form itself on the review editor.

Also Arved, I’m curious what tool you were using to examine the review pages. I would like to know how Google views these reviews http://appcomrade.com/worms-3/

How could I make Google know that I’m reviewing “Worms 3” ?

Hi, Octavian

Google has a test page:
http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets
Just copy the url you want to check and hit preview.

Also, there is a new tool in Google Webmaster Tools where u can set some tags and info from your reviews, kind of “how Google must read your review”.

Oh thanks I forgot about the data highlighter.
