Clicked the Wrong Button and Rejected a Review

wallanon
Oops. If you see the one for Bare Elegance where the guy spent $187 on a brunette, I accidentally sandbagged him with a reject on a review I thought was actually pretty good.

Yeah - I've almost hit reject by accident a few times - the buttons are too close together - it'd be better if the buttons were smaller like 2 small circles the size of a dime and one circle towards one edge of the screen and the other circle horizontally across towards the opposite edge of the screen - e.g.:

^ the spacing didn't post right in my circles example

If I drew two circles they'd probably look like boobies, too.

Don't sweat it wall, I've seen some reviews slip through that I thought you accidentally hit the "publish review" bar.

Should reject be on left or right?

Put reject to the left (as you look at the screen).

Perhaps a good idea to put the circles maybe a 1/4 way away from the edge of the screen that way it's not pressed by accident when scrolling (I scroll running my thumb along the edge od the screen).

Alternatively you can leave it as is & have a 2-step accept/reject process to avoid accidental accept/reject - i.e. having the user confirm his choice.

Perhaps the 2nd-option is more kosher IMO.

Reject is already 2 step... Don't really think publish needs a confirm does it?

b/f the update, in the past I, as well as others, hit publish by mistake (I think then the Publish button came b/f the reject button which may have been part of the problem, but can't remember).

Since Reject requires a 2-stepper then maybe I misinterpreted the OP (I thought he may have misclicked).

On the ph the two buttons are pretty-close so one could sausage-finger Publish by accident - perhaps a 2-step Publish would add worthwhile additional redundancy.

You can still pick a checkbox if you approve a review, so sometimes I do. I just misclicked the reject button by accident.

Maybe we need triple redundancy for wallanon

Try out the new buttons

If you need more redundancy, let me know. Twice.

I tried them out. No problems there.

I'm going to downvote Papi Chulo's triple redundancy suggestion, though I appreciate his concern.

I think it will help inadvertently hitting the wrong button
