Key Features Overview
The Review is a stylish review and magazine theme that allows you to create extensive reviews for multiple content including games, travel destinations, films, technology etc. Each review item has it’s own centralised hub page with tabbed navigation where you can display all the news, videos and images relating to that item. Each item can be reviewed by both admins and users and this all comes packaged in a fully responsive, clean and modern design.

Review System
Admins can leave a site rating which can have multiple criteria and good and bad points. Users can also leave a rating and their own reviews using the front-end review form. All review/data complies to http://schema.org so ratings are displayed in search results.
Front-end Posting
Users can leave their own reviews via the front-end review form. Admins can then approve or delete the submitted reviews. All approved user reviews are displayed within the hub.
Hubs
A hub page is the central page where all the information on a particular item such as a video game is displayed. This may include a review of the game, the latest news, videos and images. Each hub page can have child pages which can optionally be displayed as tabs in the hub page header.
Ajax Filtering
All posts, pages and reviews can be filtered using ajax which means the page doesn’t need to be reloaded, the new content is dynamically loaded into the page for much quicker access. Content can be filtered by categories, date, title, comments, views, followers, ratings and awards.
Video Headers
You can add teaser background videos to any page header and users can then play the full video with the click of a button.
Theme Convertor
If you’re using one of my older review themes ReviewIt or Score, The Review comes with a theme convertor which converts all your old reviews to the new hub pages, it also transfers all the ratings to the new ratings system and review categories and tags.
