jReviews 1.1.0 Beta released

[Alejandro]

I am very happy to inform you of the release of jReviews v1.1.0 Beta. There are many fixes in this release as well as new features incorporated from some of your comments as well as the need for improved functionality.

 

The highlight of this release is the inclusion of more custom fields: select multiple, radio buttons and checkboxes and the way these are handled. There's a new way of adding the options, right after you save the new field you will see a link to add/edit the options. You can assign images to the options to be displayed in the frontend instead of text. And the options can be translated with Joomfish.
