Magento – Set product reviews limit and pagination

collection;pagerproductreview

I have large number of product reviews being displayed on product detail page.

I need to count the total number of reviews and set limit on the number of reviews displayed and with pagination.

Does Magento default has this feature ?

How can I achieve this.

Thanks.

Yes, it's simple to add these lines to local.xml file

<reference name="product.info">
    <block type="page/html_pager" name="product_review_list.toolbar" />
    <block type="core/template" name="product_review_list.count" template="review/product/view/count.phtml" />
     <block type="review/product_view_list" name="product_customer_reviews" as="product_customer_reviews" template="review/product/view/list.phtml">
        <block type="review/form" name="product.review.form" as="review_form">
            <block type="page/html_wrapper" name="product.review.form.fields.before" as="form_fields_before" translate="label">
                <label>Review Form Fields Before</label>
                <action method="setMayBeInvisible"><value>1</value></action>
            </block>
        </block>
    </block> 
</reference>

Magento – Display Sort by option on Top and Pagination at bottom

One way of solving your issue is by hiding and showing toolbar HTML elements

For top toolbar your CSS should look like the following:

.toolbar .pager {
    display: none;
}

For bottom toolbar your CSS should look like the following:

.toolbar-bottom .toolbar .pager {
    display: block;
}

.toolbar-bottom .toolbar .sorter {
    display: none;
}

Another solution is to create a new toolbar template file for bottom and keep pager code and remove sort code and then call toolbar bottom template in product listing. Follow the following steps to accomplish this solution:

Copy toolbar.phtml from app/design/frontend/base/default/template/catalog/product/list/toolbar.phtml to your custom theme template app/design/frontend/custom_package/custom_template/product/list/toolbar.phtml
Make a copy of toolbar.phtml and name it toolbar-bottom.phtml
Edit toolbar.phtml and remove pager code
Edit toolbar-bottom.phtml and remove sort code
Copy list.phtml from app/design/frontend/base/default/template/catalog/product/list.phtml to app/design/frontend/custom_package/custom_template/catalog/product/list.phtml
Edit list.phtml and replace the following code:

Existing code:

<div class="toolbar-bottom">
    <?php echo $this->getToolbarHtml() ?>
</div>

With this code:

<div class="toolbar-bottom">
    <?php echo $this->getToolbarBlock()->setTemplate('catalog/product/list/toolbar-bottom.phtml')->toHtml() ?>
</div>

Magento – Find if there are reviews or not in reviews/form.phtml

You have a typo in your code, bracket is in wrong place:

<?php if( count( $this->getReviewsCollection() > 0 ) ): ?>

It should be:

<?php if( count( $this->getReviewsCollection() ) > 0  ): ?>

However, it's better to use this code if you only want to check size of the collection:

<?php if( $this->getReviewsCollection()->getSize() > 0  ): ?>
