Here is the update of a plugin that allows you to offer your visitors and your members to note, assess and submit their reviews. A system that can either supplement or replace that comment.

With version 2.3.1, there is no need to modify the core. Only the addition of a variable in the template files used to display the score obtained by each story, page or comment. This update corrects a few problems from the previous version and enable the comming paypal plugin to integrate your clients review on each product page if needed.

IKS (Interactive Knowledge Stack) is an initiative to help Content Management Systems enrich their content with semantic information (think Semantic Web). The initiative, which is in part funded by the European Union, has now reached a point where a first usable version is available. The IKS Project is running an early adopters program and a series of workshops to help get CMS vendors become familiar with the system and so that they can provide early feedback.

One such workshop was held on December 9 + 10 in Amsterdam, Netherlands. I (Dirk) attended this workshop, representing Geeklog, to try and get a better idea of what this project is all about.

Stay in touch with users of your site allows you to be more responsive. A function that refuses to work, a inappropriate comment, abroken link, a disgruntled user ... requires that the information will be sent quickly. For this there is the Feedback form.

That is what offers the new version of jQuery plugin for geeklog, with its update. In addition to its previous functions lightbox, date picker, color picker ... you can now add a tab "Feedback" on the side of your pages.

By clicking on the tab, the form and show visitors are invited to enter their name, email address and message. Once validated, the message is sent to the main email address of your site.
