Chapter 1 ListingResources Overview & Installation

The Listing Resources Add-on for JReviews allows submissions of 3rd party resources (affiliate links, news, articles, awards, ...) in the listing detail pages. It can handle any resource that you want to include that doesn't require a separate listing.

1.1 Features

• Define different resource types for specific listing types.
• Choose which user groups are allowed to submit/edit/delete resources.
• Track visits to resource links.
• Enable resource link cloaking.
• Create a menu item for displaying resources (newest, most visited, ...).
• Publish a resources module for displaying resources in module positions.

1.2 Usage Examples

Affiliate links on product listing detail pages

If you plan on generating income from affiliate links, the add-on provides a very simple way to do this and even allows you to cloak your affiliate links.

News and Critic Reviews for Movies, Games...

Easily complement the information in your existing listings with resources from other sites. Adding new resources is simple and they can be neatly organized by resource type.

1.3 ListingResources Installation

The add-on can be installed via the Remote Install & Update menu in the JReviews administration.

To install or update the addon you must have previously purchased it, your JReviews version needs to match or be greater than the one specified for the addon and you must have a valid "Upgrades & Support" package for your JReviews license.

If you purchased the addon, but it still says "addon not active for this license", go to the JReviews admin license screen, clear the local key text area and re-submit the license number. This will fetch a new local key that includes the addon information.

On the Install & Update page, check the Updates checkbox, and click on the Install button next to the ListingResources Add-on like on this image:

Reload the page to see the ListingResources Add-on link appear under the Add-ons header on the left sidebar:
