I don't know if the problem is on my end or if it's the site, but every time I submit a critic review, I end up at the DB home page.

It's annoying :-/

If that were possible, that would be amazing. I'm guessing it might be a lot of work, though. I'm not that knowledgeable about coding sites and stuff. But if you think it's viable to do, I definitely recommend it.

...took a bit more work than I had first imagined it would, but this is done!

 

Hooray! You are a true champion :D

Awesome! Thanks! Great work! Appreciate the change. Just one minor thing would it be possible somehow to set settings for default preferences - so that it always shows me the regional sale by default. I'm far  from being an IT expert, so would it be possible? Thanks nonetheless

Yeah - somebody else had asked about that, too. And I had considered it at the time when I put all this together...   ...but it was REALLY late and I had already invested way more time than I thought I would! But yes, at some point I'll have a way to save this to a user preference or something.

 

 

Nice thanks. Looking forward to that

Does it say your submission has been accepted? Or, are you literally getting kicked out??

Nope, I simply get kicked out. And it's weird because it doesn't happen with screenshots or synopsis, only with reviews.

Btw, I'm using Firefox 57.0.4

Yeah I have that too. Same thing happens also when I report a game.

So I'm not the only one with this problem. That's reassuring.

Yeah, It does send the review to the queue for approval after you hit continue.

What happens is after filling out the Critic, link to the review and review score you hit continue (the review goes to the queue) then it sends you back to http://www.vgchartz.com/gamedb/

But the rest of the info submitted also require approval, so why are critic reviews, and reporting a game, behaving differently?

I don't know why it does that, I just wanted to confirm that they do go through and the link to where it kicks you back (mostly for Talon) and to let you know it's not just you who has that problem.

Ah, ok.

At least the submitted info does get to its destination .

Yeah - apparently the submissions ARE making it to the DBAdmins, but it's NOT supposed to kick you out of the function like that. I'll have to take a look at it. I understand that it's doing this for Extras (and I'll assume Cheats), too...

Yes, I just tested and it does it for extras and cheats.
