Comments on: WPReviewEngine http://wphuddle.com/wpreviewengine/ A Premium WordPress Plugin Directory Fri, 03 Feb 2012 13:12:13 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: steph http://wphuddle.com/wpreviewengine/#comment-9 steph Tue, 01 Mar 2011 13:48:20 +0000 http://wphuddle.com/?p=13#comment-9 This plugin works well, and is relatively easy to configure, but could use some user interface help on the admin side. For my purposes, the options were a little overdone and complicated in some areas. Once set up, it works almost as expected except that if no user reviews are present, then the comparison tables don't show up at all. But no biggy once the reviews start coming in, right? <strong>Update</strong>: It appears this plugin is no longer being developed. Also, after looking under the hood I liked the plugin a lot less. It was adding a hundred lines or so of (bad) CSS in the head of every page, was producing a lot of PHP warning messages, and didn't load javascripts correctly for WordPress. Being the OCD developer I am, I spent a couple hours cleaning it up a little so I could use it comfortably.
