User Rating System

This feature allows clients to rate each other. Highlights of this feature:

  • Allows users to rate each other through a "five star system" that's easily clicked within that users listings.
  • The rating value for a user displays within all their listings
  • If the user has not been rated by the current user browsing viewing a listing the cumulative site wide user rating for that user will be displayed
  • If the user currently viewing a listing has rated that listing's owner/user their user rating for that user will display instead
  • Allows the admin to set a low rating threshold so that if a users rating falls below a certain amount the seller rated and/or the admin user can be notified by email
  • To activate this feature only requires the placement of a specific tag within the listing details page templates

Where do you administer the user rating features in the admin tool?

To start using this feature you only need to paste the following tag:

{listing tag='user_rating'}

into either the page template or listing details template used on the listing details page.

Once enabled you would administer this feature here within the admin tool:

SITE SETUP > USER ACCOUNT SETTINGS > USER RATINGS

That admin tool looks like the following:

Within that screenshot you'll see configurations for:

  • Low Rating Threshold - if a specific users rating falls below the value you set here an email will be sent. If you do not want to use this feature set that value to 0
  • Low Rating Notification Targets - This allows you to send the above low rating notification to either the user with the deficient rating, the site admin or both.
