Product Review Scripts

Hi Andy.

I have downloaded soapbox and will give it a go in the next few days.
It looks a good product.

Cheers.

Wayne.

Heres a couple of links to very basic star rating systems if anyone is interested.

They are useful scripts but to clarify the limitations...
Rating-only systems, without the ability to actually leave a review, make it impossible for potential buyers to see the justification for the rating (why is it great or what's wrong with it?). Also no existing third party review script will integrate directly with Actinic and so auto-generated features such as a Top-Rated catalog section and Review Invitation Emails to recent customers would not be available. The second link just hung my browser twice so I can't really comment.

Sorry Andy, i forgot to mention that about your product.
As stated they are very basic, where by u dont have any control over it.

No problem. Just clarifying for anyone comparing the two. Neat solution though.

As a follow up to my earlier posts, I've been running Codepath's Soapbox on Version 7 now for a couple of weeks and it works brilliantly.

Thank you Andy for the work done in enabling it for v7 users and ironing out all the small glitches, it now integrates 100% perfectly.

The reviews from customers are slowly rolling in and it's exactly what I've been wanting to add to the site for months now.

Pretty certain that within a couple more weeks I'll have had the £150 back and more in extra sales already - so couldn't be happier!
