He there,

 

Thank you for this fabulous component.

 

What I really need is something enabling my registered users to leave a single review on a K2 item. Is this possible?

 

I do realize that K2 easily integrates with commenting systems but this would not work for me as I would like my user to leave only a single review and that would be it.

 

Kind regards,

There is probably some code that could be added to an override in the item.php in the comments section that would do something like the following psudocode that would work

get the user

search thru the comments and see if that user had a comment in the table

and hide the comment form if he is there already

else

show the form to him

Thanks, William.

Basically, constructing a simple form with an email address text box, a user avatar, a text editor and a captcha to add to item parameters will be ideal.
As far as using an integrated commenting system, would be nice to be able to somehow limit a user to only one single comment. Will try to investigate this. Please let me know if you have anything in this respect.

 

Ta,

 

Alex

If i understand what you want you can use default k2 form for comment input and customize it a bit. The rest is a matter of who and when they can see the form. First only registared users can see the form, second if they have already commented they cannot see the form to add comments.

Yep. Than sounds about right.

 

Ideally, I'd like to display a "Submit review" knob to public. Upon clicking to this knob a visitor will be prompted to either register or login. Once he has logged in and submitted his review, it is being reviewed by the site admin and then published, possibly with the admin response threaded to it. Then this comment turned review gets publicly displayed (would be nice to keep it still editable for its author but its secondary, really).

 

Cheers,

I am actually interested in learning how to construct forms using K2 CCK, something similar to what one can do with jSeblod.
