Watch Users/Items for new Reviews

Change Notification Settings

Create Item

Now that you are registered, you might want to view a list of reviews only for certain users or items.

To add users to your user watchlist (similar steps for items):

make sure you are logged in
find a review of your favourite user
click on the empty circle by their username (it will turn into a circle with a dot in the center - much like an eye)
you are now watching this user!

To stop watching a user, click on the "eye" again.

You can view a list of the users you are watching by selecting "Watchlists" → "User Watchlist" from the menu.

There are 2 notification settings options that are available to you: Weekly Notification and Comments Notification

Weekly Notifications:

A weekly e-mail that will summarize the new reviews added within the past week for the users and items you are watching.

Comments Notifications:

An e-mail will be sent every time someone comments on your review.

To change your notification settings:

make sure you are logged in
go to your settings page by clicking on the "Settings" menu item
click on the "change" link of the setting you would like to update and make your change

Before you can leave a review on an item that does not yet exist on Reviewgol, you need to create it.

To create a new item:

make sure you are logged in
click on "Items" → "Create Item" from the menu
create a unique title for the items and add comma-separated keywords
Click on the "Add" button

If the same item has already been created, you will see an error.

If a similar item has been created, you will see a selection of up to 3 of those items. If after reviewing those items, you are still positive that your item has not been created before, click "No" to create your item.

If you are looking for a review on an item that does not yet exist on Reviewgol, you can create a Request for Reviews.

To create a Request for Reviews, follow the same steps as in Create Item, but make sure to check the "Request for Reviews" check box.

All items with requests for reviews can be found in the menu under "Items" → "Requests for Reviews".

If you find an item on Reviewgol for which you would like to write a review (if it doesn't exist, see the Create Item section), you can do so by clicking on the "Write a Review" link underneath the item.

If you don't see the link, click on the item's title to go to the item's page. The link should appear.

You will have to be logged in to write a review.

You can rate other users' reviews by clicking on the "Useful" or "Not" link of the review. The user's rating is the sum of the ratings of all of their reviews.

You will have to be logged in to rate a review.

Whether you are logged in or not, you can leave a comment on any review by clicking on the "Add Comment" link underneath the review.
