Missing space in title and "Blank Business Name"

    I noticed a space missing between the last digit of the date, and the beginning of the author name so that it reads:
    Feb 5, 2014by John L. on Blank Business Name.

    I found the plugin files, and even found the HTML where where I believe the problem was, but the extra space I added does not appear on the live page. There’s a note at the top of the file that says something like “changes to this file will not appear”, but there’s no explanation as to why, or how I would make a change that does appear.

    The other thing I’m trying to change is the part that says “Blank Business Name”. I have searched in the plugin settings and files, and have not found a way to input our business name, or replace that bit of text. Has anyone else experienced either of these issues? If so, any advice on how to fix them would be great.

    Thanks, and here’s the page in question:

  • Designflair, tick the box Enable WP Customer Reviews for this page under your post in editing mode to edit business/product details.

    HOWEVER, even if I edit details I keep getting “blank business name”. I’ve been trying to mess around with the code to remove that part but no luck yet..

    Thanks rytisg, I checked the settings under the post after WP Customer Reviews was enabled, and the business name area is filled out correctly.

    Please let me know if you find it in the code. I looked around in the plugin files before posting the first time, but wasn’t able to find it either.

    Ok, I have found the cause of the ‘by’ being hard up to the date. After hours of fiddling, solution is that you need to untick ‘minify’ html setting in W3 Total Cache plugin. The space will return between the date and the ‘by’.

    The minify setting removes unnecessary space and speeds up page load. Unfortunately WP Customer Review plugin places this space between divs. On the next upgrade please could that space be part of the text ie: either ‘date space’ or ‘space by’. It should not be between divs. WP Customer Reviews is a great plugin, but this change would help a lot as W3 Total Cache needs to be compromised at the moment to work around this issue.

    Also, possibly similar to OP, I hate “on Product name” next to every single review. So unnecessary and odd-looking. Please could this be removed or an option to remove it incorporated to next update. I couldn’t for the life of me get CSS to remove it (any ideas how to do this?). Thanks.

    @designflair, looked at your example link and the issue looks resolved. What fixed it?

    @ross99, thanks for investigating and sharing. I’ve passed your findings on to the developer to be consider the change in the next release.

    @oswald2010, thanks for your input. Note that change will likely get undone if the plugin is upgraded. We are looking at ways to address the company name display.

    Thanks to all for using the plugin.

    Gowebsol,

    Couldn’t a choice be given when someone fills in the review?
    Something like Are you reviewing a product or the company? Depending on the Radio Button clicked the review process would either go the code as is or a similar coding for a product.
    So, click the Company button would pick up the name from within WP and clicking the Product button would allow a What Product field to be completed and Plugged into the code.

    Just wondering out loud.
    Jim
