Information is entered into JReviews via the Listing and Review forms:

  • The Listing form is for submitting listings (articles)
  • The Review form is for submitting editor or user reviews and ratings (or comments only)


To access the Listing Form you can create a "Submit New Listing" JReviews Menu Item and you can also enable the "Add new listing" link so it appears at the top of every Category list page.

The Review form is available in listing detail pages, so visitors viewing the listing can submit their reviews.

You can also enable the review form to display together with the listing form if you want to enable users to submit listings and reviews at the same time.
