## Description

WP Review Restaurant is a **lightweight** plugin for adding restaurant reviews functionality
to your WordPress site. Being shortcode based, it can work with any theme (given
a bit of CSS styling) and is really simple to setup.

>  We are woking on completely new version of it. It is still in beta.
>  [Restaurants Listings](https://github.com/opentuteplus/restaurants-listings)
>  **We are not supporting this plugin any more.Thanks**

#### Features

 * Add, manage, and categorise restaurant listings using the familiar WordPress 
   UI.
 * Searchable & filterable ajax powered restaurant listings added to your pages 
   via shortcodes.
 * Frontend forms for guests and registered users to submit & manage restaurant 
   listings. (coming soon)
 * Allow restaurant listers to preview their listing before it goes live. The preview
   matches the appearance of a live restaurant listing. (coming soon)
 * Each listing can be tied to an email or website address so that foodie can send
   inquire to the restaurants.
 * Searches also display RSS links to allow foodie to be alerted to new restaurants
   matching their search.
 * Allow logged in restaurant administrators to view, edit, mark filled, or delete
   their active restaurant listings. (coming soon)
 * Developer friendly code — Custom Post Types, endpoints & template files.
 * Add colors to each restaurant types.

The plugin comes with several shortcodes to output restaurants in various formats.

NOTE: Currently it supports only one resturant type.

## Installation

#### Automatic installation

Automatic installation is the easiest option as WordPress handles the file transfers
itself and you don’t even need to leave your web browser. To do an automatic install,
log in to your WordPress admin panel, navigate to the Plugins menu and click Add
New.

In the search field type “WP Review Restaurant” and click Search Plugins. Once you’ve
found the plugin you can view details about it such as the the point release, rating
and description. Most importantly of course, you can install it by clicking _Install
Now_.

#### Manual installation

The manual installation method involves downloading the plugin and uploading it 
to your webserver via your favourite FTP application.

 * Download the plugin file to your computer and unzip it
 * Using an FTP program, or your hosting control panel, upload the unzipped plugin
   folder to your WordPress installation’s `wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 * Activate the plugin from the Plugins menu within the WordPress admin.

#### Getting started

Once installed:

 1. Create a page called “restaurants” and inside place the `[restaurants]` shortcode.
    This will list your restaurants.

**Note when using shortcodes**, if the content looks blown up/spaced out/poorly 
styled, edit your page and above the visual editor click on the ‘text’ tab. Then
remove any ‘pre’ or ‘code’ tags wrapping your shortcode.

#### Template overrides

Within the plugin folder there is a ‘templates’ directory where frontend views are
stored. This includes, for example, the form and form fields. These templates get
loaded by plugin when it needs to display content.

#### Overriding templates via a theme

Template files can be overridden via your theme should you wish to customise them.
To override a template, move it to yourtheme/review_restaurant/, keeping the path
within ‘templates’ intact.

For example, if I wanted to override pagination.php I would move it to mytheme/review_restaurant/
pagination.php and edit my theme’s version.

Please note, if these files are updated in the core plugin, you may need to update
your custom version in the future to maintain compatibility. Therefore it is advised
to only override the template files you need to customise.

#### Overriding templates through code

Plugin developers can also override templates by filtering the ‘review_restaurant_locate_template’
filter.

>  return apply_filters( ‘review_restaurant_locate_template’, $template, $template_name,
> $template_path );

Returning your own template path will override all others.
