I installed the module and setted the proper access permissions (this step could be added to the readme.txt for less silly support requests in future ;) but i really can not find where to submit a review...

I cannot find a link neither on 'create content' page, nor directly under submitted nodes. Also a 'nodereview' section in /admin/settings shows up...only trace of the module i can find is in /admin/settings/content-types

I am on 4.7.2, am i being thick?

Reviews do not exist on their own. You must first go to admin/settings/nodereview, and configure your review parameters for one or more other node types. For example, state that you want to review "page" nodes.

Then, go to any page node as a user with the necessary permissions and you'll see a new local task (tab) to add a review, or see current reviews. The contents of the add review form depend on the settings you chose back in the admin section. That's what makes nodereview so flexible, as well as why review nodes can't exist on their own. They have to be reviewing something, because it's that something that defines what fields to use to review.

Make sense?

sure it does.

The problem is that in the settings menu (/admin/settings) does not appear any link to /admin/settings/nodereview
(i had to type the url manually and it worked ok, but this would require a bit of foreseeing and faith!)

At this point should this be considered a bug?

thx

Curious. It won't be on the page, but in the menu. If you have the necessary permissions (should be the same as for any other module settings, I think it's "administer system settings"), then when you visit the settings page the navigation menu should have modules listed under it, including "menus", "search", "users", etc. One of them should be "review types".

If not, try clearing your cache. If that fixes it, then it's a cache bug against core. :-)

ups..i was looking for "nodereview" instead of "review types"! (usually the menu itam keeps the name of the module)

Ok, i added my two cents to the README.TXT so it is even more error-proof ;)
and attached it here.

thx

Ahhh... Yeah, I debated between "nodereview" and "review types", and went with the latter as it seemed a more logical semantic description than the nondescript "nodereview".

I've just committed a modified version of your revised README file to the 4.7 branch. Congratulations on being the first 3rd party contributor for this module. :-)

well, being my programming skills sub-zero (and often finding Drupal documentation bit a pain) this is the only way i can contribute..at least for now ;)
