Is it accurate to say that this review functionality is built with off- the-shelf plugins (if so which ones?) or is it purely custom? * The main thing I’m interested is establishing a parent-child relationship in the application of a review site. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WP Customer Reviews] Review for each product](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/review-for-each-product/) * [WomperScomper](https://wordpress.org/support/users/womperscomper/) * (@womperscomper) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/review-for-each-product/#post-3824846) * Good to hear this plugin supports individual products. Does it establish a parent- child relationship between products and reviews or something else? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WP Customer Reviews] WP Types](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-types-1/) * [WomperScomper](https://wordpress.org/support/users/womperscomper/) * (@womperscomper) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-types-1/#post-4083315) * This is an interesting question. I’m on the hunt to finding the ideal review plugin for my project, namely a social book review site. I want users to be able to submit reviews to a book, thus need a parent child relationship between a book and review post type. * Those two post types can be built using the Types module, but I just wonder if this plugin can be the “review engine” of sorts to handle post relationships and display of the custom post types? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Book Reviews] Features request](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/features-request/) * [WomperScomper](https://wordpress.org/support/users/womperscomper/) * (@womperscomper) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/features-request/#post-3466818) * On the topic of feature requests, here’s some I have in mind: – parent/child relationship between book and review post types – customizable fields for book and review post types – checklists, radio buttons, conditional etc. – be able add books or reviews from the front end (form plugin compatibility) without the need of going through the dashboard – integration with Open Library plugin to search and create book posts automatically using data from Open Library (or other book database system) – support comments to reviews – support helpful/not helpful review ratings and review display sorting – custom and automated taxonomies based on book meta data (title, author, ISBN etc.) * Of the several book review plugins available on WP, none of them offer these features. And as this plugin is quite new, I think this is the right, and this would be the right plugin to have these features implemented if possible. * Good luck and thanks * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Book Review Library] Integration with OpenLibrary plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/integration-with-openlibrary-plugin/) * Thread Starter [WomperScomper](https://wordpress.org/support/users/womperscomper/) * (@womperscomper) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/integration-with-openlibrary-plugin/#post-4079520) * Okay, thanks. That clears up a lot and made my decision much easier. Thanks for taking the time to explain this stuff for me. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Toolset Types - Custom Post Types, Custom Fields and Taxonomies] Conditional w/ radio and checkboxes](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/conditional-w-radio-and-checkboxes/) * [WomperScomper](https://wordpress.org/support/users/womperscomper/) * (@womperscomper) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/conditional-w-radio-and-checkboxes/#post-3592689) * Is there a way to have a conditional field (a text field) that is triggered based when a specified radio button within in a radio/select group is selected? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Book Review Library] Integration with OpenLibrary plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/integration-with-openlibrary-plugin/) * Thread Starter [WomperScomper](https://wordpress.org/support/users/womperscomper/) * (@womperscomper) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/integration-with-openlibrary-plugin/#post-4079517) * Good points. * I think I’ve come across some possible non-custom approaches for form-to-post functionality. It seems my best approach would be create a custom “book” and “ review” post type using the “Types” plugin and then [this](http://wordpress.org/plugins/gravity-forms-custom-post-types/) plugin (or something similar) to make the form-to-post connection. * I will have to investigate further, but it’s a pity that I’m somewhat reinventing the wheel since your plugin readily offers much of the functionality (book- and review-wise). * I’ve yet to check this myself, but to save some time, with your plugin, does it create a parent-child relationship between the book and review post types? And does it support multiple reviews for a single book? * Thanks again * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Book Review] Comparison to Book Review Library plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comparison-to-book-review-library-plugin/) * Thread Starter [WomperScomper](https://wordpress.org/support/users/womperscomper/) * (@womperscomper) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comparison-to-book-review-library-plugin/#post-4082179) * Thanks for the response. * I am planning a community book review site where site users can add reviews to a book, thus a one-to-many relationship between book and review. * You mentioned that your plugin displays book data at the TOP of the page, which in my case could be useful. I’m envisioning a review “view” of sorts with the book and book data positioned at the top, with however many related reviews, displayed beneath the book/book data. Can this be accomplished with your plugin in? * Also, does your plugin support a parent-child post relationship with the book post being the parent, and subsequent reviews of the book, being the child? Also, can these book and reviews posts be created via the front end (not via the dashboard)? * Thanks again * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Book Review Library] Integration with OpenLibrary plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/integration-with-openlibrary-plugin/) * Thread Starter [WomperScomper](https://wordpress.org/support/users/womperscomper/) * (@womperscomper) * [12 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/integration-with-openlibrary-plugin/#post-4079514) * So there is no way to use a form plugin to create posts ie. mapping form fields to create post form fields? * I ask, because when you mentioned that this plugin creates book review posts via the dashboard, it started to get me a little concerned with the user experience and thus wondering if a non-dashboard form would be better. * Thanks again * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [How would you structure this site in WordPress?

Also, can this be made into a link, linking to a page displaying all relevant child posts? Would it be possible to have this linked page display within the parent post (a nested container of sorts)? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [How would you structure this site in WordPress?

Would it provide the same functionality as the other two? * Also, based on looking at the screenshots provided with the plugin, it appears the other fields – genre, author etc. – are predefined and fixed. Is that the case? I ask because I’d like to add additional fields related to book and book review, such as location.
