All the reviews have the same ID

Hi,

So firstly the parameter id only is processed when you also use category=”page” or category=”post”. Essentially the show function will first try to pull reviews by category, and if none is passed, it will display all global reviews (category= “none” or category=””). If you want to pull reviews from a specific page or post, you must include category=”page” or category=”post” (they do the same thing). Then stating to pull reviews by post, if no id parameter is passed, reviews will be displayed from the current post (wherever the shortcode is placed), otherwise if an id is passed, then reviews will be displayed that were submitted on the post or page who’s id matches the id passed to the shortcode. (Note: the id that is attached to reviews is a reference to the page or post on which the review was submitted, so if all of your reviews have the same attached id, that is likely a product of collecting all of your reviews on the same page.)

So to get the shortcode above working, you will want to use the following:

[RICH_REVIEWS_SHOW category="post" id="653"]

This will show all reviews that were submitted on the page who’s id is ‘653’

Let me know if this makes sense,
Thanks,

Yes it does make sense –thank you!!!

I was going about it wrong. I thought that the id was tied to the reviewer, not the actual page where the form was.

Is there anyway I can show a review from a particular reviewer?

I found a work around. I just gave each reviewer their own category.

Thanks again.
