Hi
Sorry if i couldn't do a proper search to address following queries (in general and not just limited to glinks3 beta):
(1) Where and when does this "review_search_results.html" come into play?
(2) Where and when does this "reviews_edit.html" come into play?
I am testing on glinks 3 beta the same and submitted review both as guest and a logged in user and could not find "Edit" thing despite having submitted two reviews to same link with submission coming from same IP address.
I know the "reviews_edit_success.html" would only come into play once i have "reviews_edit.html" link visible somewhere. Confusion on this. It seems that i could submit all day long (sort of spam) on a link with same email address, from same ip whether as guest or as a logged in user. This could be a headache for admins :/
I never did such a test on 2.2 and nor can i do on a live site. Just testing it on a test install with glinks3-beta and am definitely confused on this. Also, if a logged in user is submitting a review on a link, shouldn't the name and email address (non editable) be picked up from the database? Other wise what's the difference if the email address and name is editable even for a logged in user?
To my mind, if a user is submitting a review then following should be applicable:
The above should be non editable by the logged in user.
On a given link, he/she should not be able to submit more than one review in any case. he could edit his reviews on a given link but not submit multiple reviews to same link. Edit possible only if Edit Link appears which i do not see it happening anywhere in glinks3 beta.
From the same email address, the guest should not be able to submit a second review on the same link. At least this keeps the review system more meaningful from reducing Guest Submitted Spams...
Just my thoughts after being confused over this Review system in glinks
Thanks
