Re: position cb everywhere overall rating field..

how can i reposition the following cb everywhere overall rating field to the following location.

That's a tough one. If you look in the plugin php file, these are the lines that output the overall rating (nice "stars" btw!)

[code:1]$overall_rating = $jreCategory;
$mi = array();
$mi["_UE_MENU_STATUS"][__t("Overall rating",true)][] = null;
$this->addMenu( array( "position" => "menuList" , // "menuBar", "menuList"
"arrayPos" => $mi ,
"caption" => $overall_rating,
"url" => "" , // can also be "<a ....>" or "javascript:void(0)" or ""
"target" => "" , // e.g. "_blank"
"img" => null , // e.g. "<img src='plugins/user/myplugin/images/icon.gif' width='16' height='16' alt='' />"
"alt" => null , // e.g. "text"
"tooltip" => ""«»)
);

return true;[/code:1]

We didn't develop this, please discuss this with the plugins developers. If the plugin is using a custom field as it should then you should be able to just re-order the field in Field Management.

i did contact the developer and this was his response.

It appears they think this is a CB field which it is not. Unfortunately I don't have developer documentation for CB to know how to change the order. I am obviously the developer of JReviews, but this is CB code, taken from other CB plugins. They should at least be able to read this post and provide some insight.

I just spent 15 minutes combing through CB code and I don't think they provide a way to change the order of what they call the status messages. This is what they have in their plugin.class.php file and there's nothing there that is related to the order:

[code:1] /**
* Registers a menu or status item to a particular menu position
*
* @param array a menu item like:
// Test example:
$mi = array(); $mi["_UE_MENU_CONNECTIONS"]["duplique"]=null;
$this->addMenu( array( "position" => "menuBar" , // "menuBar", "menuList"
"arrayPos" => $mi ,
"caption" => _UE_MENU_MANAGEMYCONNECTIONS ,
"url" => cbSef($ue_manageConnection_url) , // can also be "<a ....>" or "javascript:void(0)" or ""
"target" => "" , // e.g. "_blank"
"img" => null , // e.g. "<img src='plugins/user/myplugin/images/icon.gif' width='16' height='16' alt='' />"
"alt" => null , // e.g. "text"
"tooltip" => _UE_MENU_MANAGEMYCONNECTIONS_DESC ,
"keystroke" => null ) ); // e.g. "P"
// Test example: Member Since:
$mi = array(); $mi["_UE_MENU_STATUS"]["_UE_MEMBERSINCE"]["dupl"]=null;
$dat = cbFormatDate($user->registerDate);
if (!$dat) $dat="?";
$this->addMenu( array( "position" => "menuList" , // "menuBar", "menuList"
"arrayPos" => $mi ,
"caption" => $dat ,
"url" => "" , // can also be "<a ....>" or "javascript:void(0)" or ""
"target" => "" , // e.g. "_blank"
"img" => null , // e.g. "<img src='plugins/user/myplugin/images/icon.gif' width='16' height='16' alt='' />"
"alt" => null , // e.g. "text"
"tooltip" => _UE_MEMBERSINCE_DESC ,
"keystroke" => null ) ); // e.g. "P"
*/[/code:1]
Unfortunately I don't have an answer for you on this one.

He's not using that code appropriately or understands how its used. Its meant for menu usage (or in this case user status usage IF used correctly). I can not advise you on 3rd party development. You should have the developer turn the plugin into a fieldtype plugin for best results.
