I think you need to have a certain no. of posts before you are allowed to do any hotel review.

Delhiwala, it looks like when you set the hotel up it got added three time. The three links are different links with different URLs so perhaps the system had a blip?

Nadreg, any ideas? And any ideas why my review didn't get added?

Has it happened since? Also what operating system and browser are you using?

Hi. Yes, I had done that initially. You're right though, it looks weird. I'm having some PC issues right now. As soon as it gets resolved I will take a look at this.

Yes. That is correct. You need a certain number of posts to be able to submit reviews.

The review that didn't happen was done using Windows XP Media Center Edition and Firefox 3.0.11.
I've used this before to do a few reviews and perhaps it was just a server blip but unfortunately it was a longish review and unlike normal I didn't copy the text to my clipboard first. Doh!

I'll try again soon and report back.

For info, the site works fine using IE8 on Windows 7.

Tried again using XPMCE and Firefox and it didn't work again, just posts back to a blank Add Review page.

So I tried with IE8 on XPMCE and it worked fine. This is bizarre as I use FF for everything, never IE, and everything works on IndiaMike, except adding reviews.

a couple problems with my review

Hi. I submitted a hotel listing and review here

http://www.indiamike.com/india-hotel...eakfast-h4688/

Is there a way to have it show up directly under Delhi Hotels (not the subcategory "other")?

Also, the first photo I uploaded is not linking the thumbnail to the photo. Is there a way to delete it and upload again? My other photos are working properly.

Thanks!

Maybe it's there because it is a family run bed and breakfast? Which is logical to me, kiromancer. Price range? I would be interested for myself. I can't see anything on the website and your review doesn't indicate.

Nadreg, Ratan Vilas in Jodhpur is incorrectly down as Ratan Vila and a search for Ratan Vilas doesn't pick up the Ratan Vila review. Can you please rename it.

Proof for the correct name: http://www.ratanvilas.com/

Hi, I've fixed the hotel so that it appears in the New Delhi listing correctly. I've also deleted the picture, so please upload it again.
