![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Forum Review System Explained Explanation of AdminFusion's Forum Review System We are using a unique rewards system for forum reviews here at AdminFusion. All members who meet the requirements may submit their forum for review based on certain categories to be judged. Once the forum is up for review, the rest of the members will be able to rate each category on a 1-5 scale and then provide comments for each category. Those who submit exceptional ratings and comments will be awarded stars ( ) and "review points". For detailed information on this process, read below. Having Your Forums Reviewed Follow these steps to list your forums for review. BEFORE doing this, be sure to read the review guidelines to make sure that your forums are eligible to be reviewed. If so, you may continue below.
Reviewing Another Forum We, as forum owners, can only benefit from forum reviews if everybody is contributing by reviewing other forums. Here is the process to do that ![]()
Significance of the Stars ![]() After you review a forum by rating it on each category and commenting on each category, your review will await approval/denial from an AdminFusion staff member. If your ratings are deemed accurate and your comments are exceptional, your review will be "Approved", noted by a yellow star ( ) next to "Review Status". If your ratings seem to be far off and/or your comments are either inaccurate or not helpful, your review will be "Denied", noted by a red star ( ). Remember that the point of a forum review is to point out areas for improvement. If your review is just full of "good job" comments, then it will not be approved with a yellow star. You will not be penalized for this and your ratings and comments will remain viewable, but you will not receive a yellow star. While your review is waiting to be approved, it will be marked with a gray star ( ).If your ratings and comments are approved, you will also gain a yellow star on the right side of your postbit. This yellow star will expire in 30 days. If at any given time you have 5 active stars, you will also receive a badge ( ) until a star expires that causes you to drop to 4 stars.Lastly, each member who has had an approved review will have a bracketed number next to their stars. This number simply indicates the total number of approved reviews made all time by that member. It is there to keep track of long term contributions for each member instead of just the recent contributions (denoted by stars with a 30 day expiration). These stars and badges do not give you any special privileges or responsibilities and are only meant to acknowledge and reward those who contribute quality forum reviews. If you have any questions regarding any step in this process, you can ask us here in this thread. Thanks, and happy reviewing!

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | It looks like there are some slight problems... For one, there's this: Quote:
And then also, the "Review" page is blank... you get the box up there, but then it's just empty.

| Veteran ![]() | I was just going to try the new review system and review my first forum but when I click 'Review' to review that forum I cannot see any options to rate it. All I see are two buttons 'Submit Reply' and 'Preview Post'. It's obviously something I've overlooked? |

| AF Lead Developer | So multi-quote is not working for me for some reason. I will just do like so. @Belloman Html Issue I have corrected this issue. His post failed when he attempted to post so it doesn't show up as an actual review post in the database. @Joy & @Belloman Review post screen blank issue This has been corrected. It was due to the fact that the older posts don't have the required information to make a review post on them. I have removed the button from those screens so that this won't happen in the future.

| daviddamian.com ![]() | Larry, two questions: Why aren't the review/deny dialogs in AJAX? How do I cancel that box w/o a db error page?

| AF Lead Developer | I guess I'm a little confused. Which review/deny dialogs are you talking about? Currently with the posts that are up there should be no accept/deny drop-downs. I wanna make sure I'm answering the correct question.

| daviddamian.com ![]() | Sorry. You know... by clicking on this: an admin gets a dialog box. Well, I just figured out if you click the star again, the box disappears. So.. nevermind?

| AF Lead Developer | Well now my question is where are you seeing this? Can you link me to the post? It shouldn't be appearing on any posts @ this point. Hmmm you use the red skin don't you? Edit: gah yup there it is. GRRR will fix that. It should only be showing on official posts.
