Community Integrations

JReviews integrates with some of the most popular community solutions available for Joomla and WordPress.

JReviews integrates with some of the most popular community solutions available for Joomla and WordPress.

If you are looking to add review functionality to your community solution, take a look at the Everywhere Add-on.

In addition to the integrations with 3rd party solutions below, JReviews also offers the UserProfiles and EngageUsers Add-ons. While not looking to replace the functionality of social networking solutions, they offer substantial functionality (profiles, activity stream, follows, and search alerts), all from a single product and less overhead.

The Add-on has a few settings that you can reach under Add-ons → PeepSo Add-on.

  • Enable PeepSo comments

    Requires PeepSo 3.0.3.0

    PeepSo comments in JReviews listings are automatically disabled by default.

These will be created as users visit the listing detail pages.

    You can toggle the profile tab links for My Listings, My Reviews and My Favorites pages. Make sure you've created the corresponding menus for these pages. Learn how to create JReviews menus in WordPress.
