My reading comprehension must be slipping today...maybe most days. IDK. I just made a review; darn shame it can only be 500 characters. Wonder if it will get approved or not; what with approval seeming to be the hold up. Apparently no one has been tasked to read the Elkarte reviews. Regarding the Linux install; maybe someone here can verify the instructions work and then post them here for potential new users of Elkarte?

That's why I suggested to have a word with Softaculous guys...

Not sure how I can explain to you xD It's the APPROVAL being the problem (doesn't happen), all the rest is fine.

Oh .... I do understand that the issue is approval. However, what I showed there is a difference between the cPanel Softaculous process and the parent Softaculous process. Something is missing in cPanel. Now, it may be a cPanel issue or it may be a Softaculous issue. No one knows. As no one indicated they had made a road trip to Softaculous to test on their site, I took the opportunity to do so. Now emanuele has a bit more information to go to Softaculous with.

I will guess the pipe is broken, in my case, between cPanel and Sotfaculous site. I say that as the review I entered via cPanel, that review is still sitting in the review editor, title and all. The submit button really does not send the data anywhere so I will guess that cPanel/Soft holds onto the info at my server level as it does not know what to do with it. No idea how this would behave on other hosts that use different tools.

For some reason, I do not think Softaculous is doing the approving of the reviews. That is separate from their rating system, in a sense. Ratings do not need to be approved, but reviews do. I'm not entirely certain on how they do it, or if whoever submitted ElkArte to them does it.

It's surely not something that can be moderated by Elkarte devs, it would be stupid.

Not talking about that, it would be stupid to have Elkarte devs moderating the reviews because of commercial reasons, of course... (aka, deleting negatives).

Which is why Google Play is complete and utter bs. I found myself politely but negatively rating a few applications, and my reviews got deleted, SEVERAL TIMES. I even contacted google about it, and the operator just told me to contact the guys who own the application, as the page is theirs, what a ****ing trolly and fake system. Yes, you got a nerve there, one of the many many things that don't work at all on the net, but also one that got me quite angry, too.

Actually, I do not see a DELETE on app reviews, so you are quite mistaken in that they got deleted by the app developer. It's up to the app developer only, to reply, it seems.
