How to display detailed ratings on list pages

It is possible to display detailed ratings on list pages (blogview, tableview, thumbview), but detailed ratings take a lot of space so you will need to modify the layout.

I will show you how to add detailed ratings on a tableview list page because it has more room then other views.

This is how the ratings look by default on tableview page:

We will modify the code to display detailed ratings like on listing detail page.

Open this theme file:

• \com_jreviews\jreviews\views\themes\{theme_name}\listings\listings_tableview.thtml

Find the code that starts with <!-- BEGIN RATINGS COLUMN -->

Replace it with this:

<!-- BEGIN RATINGS COLUMN -->
<td class="columnLast">
	<?php echo $this->element('detailed_ratings',array('review'=>$listing,'reviewType'=>'user'));?>
</td>
<!-- END RATINGS COLUMN -->

Now the detailed ratings are displayed like this:

To display editor detailed ratings use this code:

<?php echo $this->element('detailed_ratings',array('review'=>$listing,'reviewType'=>'editor'));?>

Customizing the layout of detailed ratings for the list page

The code that generates the layout for detailed ratings is in:

• \com_jreviews\jreviews\views\themes\default\elements\detailed_ratings.thtml

That file is used to display detailed ratings on the listing detail page, so if you want to modify the layout only for detailed ratings on list pages, copy that file and rename it to:

• \com_jreviews\jreviews\views\themes\default\elements\detailed_ratings_list.thtml

To call that file in listings_tableview.thtml file use this code:

<?php echo $this->element('detailed_ratings_list',array('review'=>$listing,'reviewType'=>'user'));?>
