« Review Foundry User Manual   |   Tutorial Table Of Contents   |   Obtain Review Foundry » VIEWING A MEMBER DATER Prior to Reviews With Reviews Member Profile Page VIEWING A MEMBER DATER Prior to Reviews If a member wishes to be reviewed and rated according to the attributes associated with a network (or team) they can enroll themselves into the network. They will then appear on network pages along with other members in the same network (assignment to multiple networks is supported by Review Foundry). Presently we find that stacy appears in the First Dates > Picnickers network. The URL to the public entry point for Kyla's member review pages will be something like: http://www.mydomain.com/cgi-bin/path/to/.../foundry/do/foundry.cgi?module=find_member If she makes her way to the detail page for stacy she should see a page that looks similar to this: Be the first to review: click to zoom Submit a Review  |  0 Hits  |  Visit Website stacy Sorry. No reviews are yet available. To be the first to submit a review use the link displayed on the right. About Me: i thought this might be fun, but i'm not sure whether i actually have the time to get out and meet people. see, i'm kinda busy with my domestic chores (i work as a maid). so be sure to dust me off my feet with your charm if you are to stand any chance at all!

Kitchen Portrait Table Washline If Kyla has correctly configured Review Foundry for thumbnailing (see the Review Foundry manual page on Thumbnails) the images which appear on the member's detail page (and member profile page) will be thumbnails of the images that member stacy uploaded to her member profile, the original full-sized versions of which can be seen by clicking on the thumbnails themselves. With Reviews The area of whitespace on the right of the page below the review submission link is where a graphical summary of ratings will appear once reviews are submitted and approved for the member. In addition to providing the average value for each rating attribute associated with the First Dates > Picnickers network and the member named stacy, a set of ratings averaged over ALL members in the network is also presented so that visitors to Kyla's site can see how well stacy fares in comparison to other members in her class (network). Here is what the page might look like after one review has been approved for stacy and several other reviews have been submitted for other members in her network (or group): Peer Reviews For: click to zoom Submit a Review  |  0 Hits  |  Visit Website Average Rating based on 1 Review Punctuality   (5.00) Appearance Matches Photos   (4.00) Agreeable Personality   (5.00) Would Date Again   (5.00) Compared to averages for similiar members Commercial Appeal   (3.50) Appearance Matches Photos   (2.50) Agreeable Personality   (3.00) Would Date Again   (4.00) stacy About Me: i thought this might be fun, but i'm not sure whether i actually have the time to get out and meet people. see, i'm kinda busy with my domestic chores (i work as a maid). so be sure to dust me off my feet with your charm if you are to stand any chance at all!

I have to say, she's a real sweetheart. I took her to the park near where I live and we must have circled that place four times while walking and talking. The afternoon just flew by. Then I took her bowling. She said it was her first time but she bowled three strikes. I didn't mind one bit. She is a lot of fun, though maybe a little too young at heart for me I finally decided.   report this review Was this review helpful to you?             In addition to the "star" rating style (though in the example above our stars are represented as crosses) Kyla has several other choices for representing the ratings. In fact there are 4 styles that come "out of the box" and each of these can be modified if desired by providing replacement images for the component .gif files used to construct each rating style (replacements can be carried out from the Configure control panel): Style Graphics Example Star See above Thermometer thermometer_ratings.html Colorometer colorometer_ratings.html Bar bar_ratings.html Member Profile Page In addition to member detail pages which contain reviews, each member is allocated a Member Profile page that may contain extra member fields that do NOT appear on the detail pages (the Review Foundry webmaster decides which fields appear on both detail pages and Member Profile pages by adding or removing the relevant Template Toolkit tags. To see what the Member Profile page looks like for the member stacy, click here. Note that on the Edit Member Profile page, ALL fields are automatically formatted and displayed. This means that if extra fields are added to the Member table, it is not necessary to do anything to the Edit Member Profile templates to have them show up. « Table of Contents Copyright © 2004 Random Mouse Software.
