@Simion C. You misunderstand. I think the built review is great! But it is geared towards the author, not the visitors. There’s always two sides of the review, mine as author, and visitor as reader.
The built in review should stay, but could be a bit refined with extra features for me as author (like rating templates, so I don’t have to enter my options in all my posts).
There’s two plugins on WordPress that is worthy of mentioning, Site Reviews and Comment Rating Field Plugin. I’ve integrated the latter into my sites comment system, adjusted the CSS, so now I have Author rating and Visitors rating.
Many customers/readers are looking for both the authors, and the existing customers reviews when shopping online.
So, the existing review should stay…just need some extra features. 🙂
Hi,
@Chrizze With each update of the theme, new features are implemented in order to optimize the functionality and design. An improvement to the review system could be taken into account in a future update, but I can not say for sure when this will happen. The developers have to decide which feature gets introduced and when existing options will get updated, and the list of suggestions and recommendations is constantly increasing, so it is not an easy task. In the meantime please consider using a free plugin for your needs, if the current default review system is not suited for your project.
Thank you for understanding!
Hello!
Here is a few questions.
1. I use m11 module, and on mobile all looks fine, but on desctop – too “square”. I mean the image preview (324×235) Can i change height of image, and maybe height of module?
It is very important to me, because i very need button, and image what was looks same on mobile and desctop. At this moment, on mobile image is cuted, and it looks fine. Need change the size of module on desctop 🙂
2. I use tagdiv mobile plugin. And when i open category i see this:

It is items from main menu (categories)…, and i cant understand how to hide it on mobile view. Can you help me with it?
The built in review feature could use a “save as template” function for the added options.
This is the author side of the rating, as for the reader you could just improve the comment box with a 5-star rating function that saves the average rating as a score, and puts the score into a td_review_reader_key (post custom field) or similar.
This way, you would cove both ends of a review with this awesome theme, author and reader. You could even make it better by attaching the final average score next to each other in the review-box. Like Our Score / Readers Score.
How can I get the names of each author in the preview of each post? Right now, it just shows the title, category and date.
This is pretty much what I am doing as well, but I am adding customer reviews into a single post template.
How do I add a custom template to the list of available post templates?
I’ve made a copy of a loop-single, and saved it into the theme root as loop-single14.php and single-template14.php. But I can’t see where to add them into the list of available templates in a post.
Where do I add my custom post templates? 🙂
Hi there,
after I installed the Newspaper theme I uploaded the new website logo in all sizes and everywhere, as recommended.
I use the Yoast SEO plugin and all fields for logo are filled with the urls with the correct logo image.
However when I paste a link into skype, the preview shows the old logo. Can you help with this, am I missing something?
Thank you for your time in advance!
Best,

The review system built in is a bit wonky to use, but I like it. It is focused towards author reviews, not customer reviews. The built-in review could use a extra TLC in the form of being able to create review-templates for example. Right now I must enter all the separate categories I review manually on every single post. Maybe it could have a set template that I can use on all posts?
In terms of visitor/customer reviews, there are plenty of plugins available. But it’s hard to use them in combination with the built-in review, as the built-in review ends up last in post. Maybe you could change it so I can decide wether I as author want the review showing first or last in post? Ideally it would be better if I were given a shortcode for it, so I have control over where it is supposed to show in my post/page.
In my project we require both author and visitor reviews, and currently we are using the built-in review for authors. But we have issues on where to put a visitor review in the frontend, since most plugins rely on shortcodes, the review for a visitor/customer ends up way above the authors review. This is not ideal.
The built-in review is not perfect, but it just needs some extra development time to be actually usable for me as an author. It works fine as a author only review, but we have no control over placement of it. It needs some settings to be available in the Themepanel, and really needs a shortcode to use in posts and pages.
I could buy and use a complete review system plugin, but since I already bought a theme where reviews exist, I don’t see why.
Please consdider these things in a update if possible. Pretty please. 🙂
As a reference to what I think most people here think of when we say reviews, this plugin on WordPress.org covers most of it. https://wordpress.org/plugins/product-review/

Hi,
The only available review system in the theme at the moment is like this – https://forum.tagdiv.com/reviews-2/ and there is no option to ad a conversion button in the review box. If you want to achieve something like that, it will have to be custom made. This is where the review system is defined – https://www.screencast.com/t/gux3kdDeFMl and where you will have to make the modifications if you choose to implement this functionality. You could also search for some plugins with that capability and try a few of them, maybe you will find one to suit your needs.
Thanks
Hello All,
How to add a “conversion” button in the Review Box or next to it ?
I can’t find this option but having a button at this place is the most important and basic feature for a review conclusion in order to improve conversion. Like “Get this product now!” kind of button.
Where to do this ?
Cheers
Hello,
Unfortunately the review box is separate from the post content. It can only be added above or below the content. It cannot be added inside the post content easily. Sorry. This request falls beyond what the theme support can offer you.
Thank you!
hello, please could you tell me how to move the review box from the bottom of the post and place it to the right of the featured image in post template style 1?
thanks
Hi,
You must enter your ad code in Theme panel->Ads in the section where you want it to display – https://forum.tagdiv.com/header-ads-adsense/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/article-ads/ and it should work properly. Maybe the code you are entering is not valid, or it could be pending review as specified here – https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/76228?hl=en
Thanks
Hello,
Sorry but our theme does not have a user review system. We built our theme for news purposes. On a news site, the author creates the review. Not submit an article for users to review it. If you require this functionality you will have to find a plugin that can provide such an option.
Thank you!
My first impression was rating by visitors but looks like this is author’s review. Is there an inbuilt option to allow rating by visitors and allow them display as highest rated using the theme blocks?
There was no way. They say the problem is yours!
If I pass the FTP access, do you review this problem? I’m worried because I paid and I have a deadline to deliver.
Help me!
Hi,
Unfortunately that feature is not available in the version of Visual composer that comes bundled with the theme. You can always preview your website using the browser inspector tool responsive options – https://forum.tagdiv.com/create-custom-code-using-the-browsers-inspector/ like this – https://www.screencast.com/t/SIjUYeiaNKt or you could search for a plugin if you want to have this option.
Thanks
Hello,
I am unable to see the Responsive Design drop-down for previewing different screen modes on Visual Composer. Has this functionality been altered through the Newspaper theme?
Here is the functionality I am referring to: http://www.wpbakeryvisualcomposer.com/tutorials/check-responsive-design-with-visual-composer/
Thanks.
Hello,
Clicking on twitter thumbnail on author’s page directs to “author page/twitter username” which is 404.
for example
https://www.reviewary.com/author/eageus/
when we click on twitter in this page it directs to
https://www.reviewary.com/author/eageus/eageus
Thank you

I’m trying to set-up a review site and need help regarding Posts. In other words, 50% of my posts will be reviewing centers and 50% of my posts will be for a blog.
How can I separate the (2) different types of posts?
I would like the posts for my center reviews placed in a different location than the posts for my blog.
Please advise how I can accomplish this?
Thank You
Hi,
That happens because the border is set on one of the review rows, that are hidden now through the code provided. A solution would be to set a border top on the summary like this – https://www.screencast.com/t/b3LA4G1aTC5r This is the code used
.td-review-summary {
border-top: 1px solid #ededed!important;
}
Thanks
Hi,
Well you could use some css for this, like here if you are using a stars based review – https://www.screencast.com/t/MobNKsJReS7W or here for the other two options – https://www.screencast.com/t/RseaZj8VC
These are the codes used, just enter the one that applies in your case, in Theme panel->Custom Css
.td-review-row-stars,
.td-review-header {
display:none;
}
.td-review-row-bars,
.td-review-header {
display:none;
}
Thanks

Hi,
That affects the posts that are using post template style 2, but like I said the bottom sharing by default displays at the bottom of the post, after the via field, tags, post pagination and review – https://www.screencast.com/t/UnV13L8H4qxF If none of those are used, it displays just after the content – https://www.screencast.com/t/juSN26qOtiV or bottom ad if used – https://www.screencast.com/t/pgSO5l6Iz7L0 In the link you provided the sharing appears after your bottom article ad – https://www.screencast.com/t/Hh5wfRinKZ6r and after the comments plugin. Maybe you can configure the settings of the plugin to change the position where it appears. You could try the solution from this topic and use a custom ad instead of the article bottom ad – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/sourcevia-above-add/ and place the ad do_shortcode below the bottom sharing.
Thanks
