SexFairy Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Hello there: I'm in the process of setting up my online store, and through testing it, I've realized that the reviews show my customers full name... Is there a way to change that so that it's initials only, or a nickname that the person can choose? My store is an adult store, therefore I assume that people won't want their full names on it. I don't want to miss out on product reviews because my customers would like to remain anonymous. Thanks The SexFairy ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsroque Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Ok...I'm confused on all this... Which code do I look for and what do I replace it with again and in which file? LOL! Also would you know why I'm getting the following error when dealing with Reviews? As soon as you write a review, and hit the Continue button, I get the following error: Not Found The requested URL /catalog/FILENAME_PRODUCT_REVIEWS was not found on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. When you back out of the page, the review is listed. If you view it, and try using the Back button icon at the bottom of the review, I get the same error as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guidingfoot Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Ok...I'm confused on all this... Which code do I look for and what do I replace it with again and in which file? I am also a bit confused after the above changes. I could use a new post showing what to look for, and correct one to replace it with. Thanks. ;-) Though I have not yet installed the change, so I am not sure about any errors. Waiting for a follow up before I try the code change.

Rubin Remus Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 This is the change that works. I tried it in my store while in development and again when the store went live. It displays the first name only. I tried to follow all of the above, but still no joy. I've added a customers_username column to my database, and customers have to supply a username when they join. I was hoping that if this code worked, I could alter it to display username instead. Any ideas why after this code, reviews are still showing up with full names? Is it relevant that the testing user was a member BEFORE I made the change? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubin Remus Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Okay, so, I've been extremely stupid, and I have now seen the error of my ways... Anyway, now I've got this doing what it's designed to do, how can I alter it to display the username instead of the customers first name... Are there any PHP/MySQL academics out there with a nice simple solution, for a nice simple person such as myself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
