A review form for each content type can be setup: [videowhisper_review content_type=”Features” post_id=”1″] [videowhisper_review content_type=”Performance” post_id=”1″] Then to show all reviews for that item, you can use [videowhisper_reviews post_id=”1″] . Another example, if an article is about a book with 2 parts, you can also use content_id to allow users to post a review for each part for each aspect (like Utility, Clarity). [videowhisper_review content_type=”Utility for Part” content_id=”1″ post_id=”1″] [videowhisper_review content_type=”Utility for Part” content_id=”2″ post_id=”1″] [videowhisper_review content_type=”Clarity for Part” content_id=”1″ post_id=”1″] [videowhisper_review content_type=”Clarity for Part” content_id=”2″ post_id=”1″] Then list all reviews for all parts, [videowhisper_reviews post_id=”1″] or just for an aspect or part.
