How to add product review rating stars to category pages?

[ajensen27]

I want to add the product rating stars to my category pages and also my featured products on the homepage. Is there an easy line of code to do this?

 

Thanks!

ajensen, can you please confirm, that you solved this issue with nemo's tutorial?

[ajensen27]

Thanks Jiten rash! This looks like it will solve my issue.

 

Only question I have now is if I want to do this for my featured products on my homepage do I just follow the same steps but for the featured products module?

[vekia]

just do the same, but in homefeatured.tpl file, just add the hook execution

[ajensen27]

Thanks Vekia! You can mark this as "Solved".

[vekia]

done, thanks for confirmation

anyway, you tested it? does it work as you expected?

[rgwhitaker]

I've tried so many times to get this tutorial to work and can't!

 

I can't get past Step #3. I can't get the "hey there" to work.

 

Any ideas?

 

I'm using PS 1.5.4.1 and a purchased theme.

[vekia]

looks like module new hook function doesn't work well.

you reinstalled module after changing .php file?

[rgwhitaker]

Vekia:

 

Yes. I just uninstalled and then re-installed the Product Comments module.

 

I also deleted the class_index.php file within the cache directory, as per Nemo.

 

I still can't get it to work!

 

I'm wondering, have you, or anyone else, had experience with the Google Rich Snippets + Product Ratings and Reviews module? I'm wondering if that would work better, plus there's some nice features as well.

 

I also went into myPHP database and noticed that the ProductInList hook doesn't even appear. What would make a hook not appear in the database?

it really gets down to comfort level and how much time you have.

 

if you are running a serious business and need to get stuff done...and move on...then it's best to get a pro module to accomplish the task.

 

If you want to become a developer...you can use examples given around the web and learn from them.  I personally don't do these sorts of 'how to's' because there are a multitude of different ps versions and user experience...i.e. telling a user to load this override and then delete such and such....is well...for some that follow the guide...a disaster and a time eater.

I see that the link to Nemo's tutorial has been deleted. For those who are still interested:

pascal.

 

Jiten: It's overdosed with explanation, as it is a TUTORIAL... Look forward to your new, better 'concept' of this...

[rgwhitaker]

Yes, if anyone has any additional ways to do this, I'm all ears!

 

I've tried to go through Nemo's tutorial several times and cannot get beyond Step #3. I can't get the "hey there" to appear.

 

I REALLY want to have stars in the category listings.

Hi Jiten Rash,

 

  If you want, you can always make your own tutorial and share it with the Community. I'm sure everybody would appreciate the time and effort you take to help out other merchants, much like Nemo1 does. 

[jgullstr]

Tried to make a module of this while experimenting with smarty. Try it out and see if it works.

Instruction after install:
Add {rating id=$product.id_product} to your product-list.tpl.

categorylistratings.zip

[rgwhitaker]

So jgullstr, if that portion of my product-list.tpl file appears like this currently:

 

<h3><a class="product_link" href="{$product.link|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}" title="{$product.name|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}">{$product.name|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'|truncate:35:'...'}</a></h3>
 {hook h='productInList' idproduct=$product.id_product}

 

Where would I put the {rating id=$product.id_product} line?

 

Oh...do I also need to download and install your categorylistratings module?

whenever i have time i always come forward to write tutorials u can see my topics I even have personal conversation with many merchants to short out issues..iam busy with my job im coming in a short while to share some more.

thats out of this topic

@ rgwhitaker 

what problem u have in nemos tutorial in step 3

[jgullstr]

rgwhitaker: remove any alterations you've done before, then install the module, then put {rating id=$product.id_product} where you previously had {hook h='productInList' idproduct=$product.id_product}

[rgwhitaker]

JGULLSTR:

 

That didn't work either.

 

So, I am now officially done trying to get stars in my category listings.

 

For some reason, it just won't work with my theme.

[jgullstr]

Have you checked if the rating markup is added to the rendered source? It might be that your theme css is only hiding the output.

[PascalVG]

Hi rgwhitaker,

- As a last try, can you provide a link to the site and make sure you tried to either add nemo's solution or that you added the lines of code following jgullstr's module solution? Then we can see if there's anything wrong with the code, or that it sneakily uses a different tpl file or so. (If you don't want to share your URL (yet), please PM it to me)

 

Also check:

Did you  (TEMPORARILY!!): 

- turn OFF your smarty cache and

- 'Template cache' set to "Recompile templates if the files have been updated"

in Advanced Parameters->Performance

to see the changes take effect? Otherwise it won't work.

(Don't forget to turn cache back ON afterwards!)

Please post this under free modules.  We can then move the conversation to 'on topic'.  Post the link to the 'free module' post here.

 

Thanks for your contribution.

Thanks, posted. Can't see why this would be 'off-topic' though 

[rgwhitaker]

Pascal:

 

Did that.

 

Still doesn't work.

Thanks, you are not off topic..but it seems worthy of it's own post.

Hello,

It has been impossible for me to make the module working on my prestashop version (1.6.1.6)

I follow these two combined tutorials:
        http://nemops.com/prestashop-product-rating-product-list/#.WHYJKZLWFE4
        http://sobreprestashop.blogspot.com.es/2015/03/mostrar-calificacion-productos-en-lista-productos-prestashop.html

It has worked well on my prestashop version.
I only had to make a small change on productcomments.php to have the right counting of the number of reviews (Original code Spanish Tutorial):

    I change:  $this->context->smarty->assign('nbComments', (int)ProductComment::getCommentNumber($id_product));

    To:        $this->smarty->assign(array(
                            'nbComments' => (int) ProductComment::getCommentNumber($id_product),
                    ));


My complete function in productcomments.php is: 
// Product Stars On Product List  
public function hookProductInList($params)
 {
     require_once(dirname(__FILE__).'/ProductComment.php');
     require_once(dirname(__FILE__).'/ProductCommentCriterion.php');
     $id_product = $params['idproduct'];
     $product_average = 0;
     $grades = ProductComment::getAveragesByProduct($id_product, $this->context->language->id);
     $criterions = ProductCommentCriterion::getByProduct($id_product, $this->context->language->id);
     $grade_total = 0;
  if (count($grades) > 0)
  {
      foreach ($criterions as $criterion)
      {
          if (isset($grades[$criterion['id_product_comment_criterion']]))
          {
              $grade_total += (float)($grades[$criterion['id_product_comment_criterion']]);
          }
      }
      $product_average = $grade_total / count($criterions);         
      $this->context->smarty->assign('average_total', (int)$product_average);
                       
// Obtener el número de comentarios
      $this->smarty->assign(array(
                'nbComments' => (int) ProductComment::getCommentNumber($id_product),
        ));               
      return $this->display(__FILE__, '/product-list-rating.tpl');
  }
 }
// End Of Product Stars On Product List

 

Also for all people who have the cart button disappearing when you click on «read reviews» on product page, the solution is there:
https://github.com/PrestaShop/PrestaShop/pull/5280/files

Basically you have to modify: themes/YOUR THEME/js/product.js

Find the line: $(window).bind('hashchange', function(){

Change:
checkUrl();
findCombination();

To:
var is_combination = checkUrl();
if (is_combination)
findCombination();

It has worked like a charm for me on my prestashop version (1.6.1.6)
Hope it can help.
Regards

Hi,

 

When I activate the Block Layered Prestashop module, I am getting the following error :

PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught exception 'SmartyCompilerException' with message 'Syntax Error in template "/product-list.tpl"  on line 105 "{rating id=$product.id_product}" unknown tag "rating"

 

The line 105 is : 

{rating id=$product.id_product}

If I delete the line 105, the stars are not displayed on the product list page.

 

Would you know where is the Syntax Error is the line 105 ?

 

Thank you in advance for any help.

 

Patrick
