Hi guys,
As I’m sure you already know, we love the Newspaper theme. However, one area it’s lacking compared to some other themes is how it treats reviews.
Can you please add the following suggestions to your long list of feature requests?
– rich snippets should reflect review units used (points, percentages, stars) rather than always converting to stars
– similarly, blocks should show the actual review units used, rather than converting points or percentage values into stars.
– ability for users to rate/vote is becoming very popular and would greatly enhance the current reviews.
– ability for users to sort blocks rather than just filter would be very helpful. I’d like our readers to be able to sort reviews by score, date or popularity – I can do this when designing a page in TD composer, but I would like our readers to be able to do it, too.
– numbered ranking for blocks, similar to what you do with smart lists. So, for example, when a block of ten posts is sorted by review scores, it displays a ranking number to make it easy to see how it ranks.
Most of these suggestions can be achieved with third-party review plugins, but there is always the issue of integration with the theme. Given that the rest of Newspaper looks so slick, it’s a shame that the review section is lagging behind.
Many thanks,
stuart
