This feature (along with Review Read Marking and FindNew Handler for Reviews) was sponsored by @Ludachris
As per title, I've implemented Editor Reviews in IMS (same popular feature as implemented in RMS).
This popular feature allows Content Owners (including Co-owners and Contributors) to write an editorial review (currently, this is limited to only 1 editor review per Item).
This is both a permissions based feature and per Category option based feature.
There are TWO permissions that allow you to control which users can post editor reviews.
The first permission limits the posting of editor reviews to the Item Owner only (includes Co-Owners and Contributors).
The 2nd permission allows the posting of editor reviews to any item. This should be used to give those designated as "Editors" for the site, so that they can write editor reviews for items that they do not own. This should NOT be handed out like candy to registered users!
As mentioned above, this is also a per category based feature with a single category option to enable/disable editor reviews.
If the viewing user is viewing an item that they have permission to post an editor review and the category that the item is owned by allows editor reviews, the the viewing user will see the [Write an editor review] button (as shown below).
Clicking on the [Write editor review] button takes the viewing user to the "Add editor review" input form. This is essentially the same input form used to add user reviews, so inputs like Pros and Cons and custom Review fields will be included.
And here is what an editor review in IMS looks like. When there IS an editor review, their is a new navigation tab titled "Editor review". Also, the Editor rating will display in the header of the item (as well as several other places throughout IMS).
The Editor review itself is laid out slightly different than User Reviews so that they are differentiated from one another (you'd see this in places like "Latest reviews" where they are intermixed.
Editor Reviews do allow replies, reactions etc, just like user reviews.
Note: Reviews Lists that have mixed type reviews have a new filter that lets you filter by Review Type.
Note: Editor Rating Stars can be displayed on Layout Types via enabling them in the IMS Style Properties Elements.
Note: The Widget Definition: "Item Management System: Latest reviews" has been updated to add a new setting 'Review type', which allows you to choose the TYPE of reviews fetched for the widget that you are creating. You might want to create a widget that only fetches Editor Reviews and another widget that only fetches reviews and another one that fetches both types.
