Building a Product Rating Layer on Top of JotX Reviews
JotX already gives you the review pipeline, so adding ratings is mostly a question of storing one extra field and aggregating it cleanly.
If a project already uses JotX for product comments, the natural next step is to capture a rating value alongside the review and then calculate an aggregate score for the product page.
What the extension needs
- a rating field in the review form
- storage for the rating value with the comment record
- a helper snippet that calculates the current average
This is a good example of extending a familiar review tool instead of replacing it with a heavier system just to gain one structured field.
