Custom review resources

Get Started
1

I’m designing a site from scratch and am looking for books/articles/examples/etc. on how to build reviews. Something similar to amazon.com’s star rankings, or citysearch.com.

The functionality I’m seeking to achieve is custom fields (rather than simply a ranking of say 1 to 5 stars) as well as advanced sorting abilities.

Any suggestions on references to help achieve this would be greatly appreciated, I’m having a tough time even finding pre-designed skins for this.

Thanks in advance!

Welcome to Sitepoint.

Are you talking about one of the CMS’r you’re using for the development of your site? If so, did you have a look if that CMS does not have any Plugins meeting your requirements?

Another way would be making it your self, with whichever server side scripting you are using. Can’t be to hard I quess.

Well, based on your response I think I need to ask a few beginner questions before posing said question - thanks!
