Title: Resturants Review Module for IOSR
Post by: de-active on December 29, 2009, 14:12:22
Hi everyone,

This is mainly directed at you (Datahell) but I wanted to make it public to see if any other members could also make us of such module.

Would a restaurant (cafe, etc any eating place) review/comment system like that of hotel not be useful for IOSR either built into the system or as a separate module? The restaurant can be attached to a particular destination.

So lets say I have destination A - this could have many different restaurants and these can be reviewed by the site visitors just like a hotel is reviewed: 5/4/3/2/1 stars and also leave a comment and an overall rating can be given?

I am looking for such as system, to be integrated to either IOSR (& hence destinations) or as a separate component/module - it could be as simple as that or more complex like IOSR  but it must be a review system and not much else.

Could the current hotel review system be modified to also act as a restaurant review system attached to IOSR destinations and sub-locations? If Datahell is busy and I presume he is (with e-Forum and other developments) and someone else is willing to build this module for me, please contact me - no I am not suggesting you copy IOSR hotel review system -unless you are Datahell!

Your comments would be appreciated.

No one interested in developing a review system? It doesn't have to be for restaurant, it's application could be anything: movies, products, car, books etc If this is developed as a separate module for Elxis it could have many purposes.

My personal opinion is, one of the draw-backs of Elxis say compared to Joomla is that there is a lack of variety when it comes to choice of components, modules, templates (quality templates!)... I understand that Elxis is pretty new but there is a lack of developers/development, besides the Elxis Team, which I'm sure is working flat out, brining stuff out but this is one of the main draw-backs of developers/customers adopting Elxis.

I have no doubt that Elxis is a better than Joomla but Elxis adoption has been quiet slow...just my two cent

my friend your elxis has already those abilities...

ajaxvote
usercommentary
latest-articles mod
most-popular mod
latest comment mod
easygallery
and  it's section-cats...



these are no more than iosres review system

as for the destinations, think of sections as destinations etc..

section-destination- eg. athens => cat_resturants, cat_bars etc...
section-destination- eg. books => cat_history, cat_novel etc...

write your articles-reviews and let visitors to comment - vote.


maybe someone needs  a most_rated module.... but not a complete review system from scratch.. at least not for what you asking here.
there are all there!
this is one of the reasons that people not answering to you...
