Review Management
Managing user generated reviews is very important for your Directory business. You can manage the reviews from WP Admin Dashboard →  Directory Listings → Settings → Listings → Review

Using the Review System

Having a review system to a directory listing is a great user experience for users.

You can enable this by setting “Enable Reviews & Rating” to YES. You can also restrict listing owners to post a review on his/her own listing by setting “Enable Owner Review” to NO.

Using Review Approval System

If you want to manually approve each review submitted by users then you can do that by setting “Approve Immediately?” option to NO.

After that whenever a user will submit a review to a listing will see a popup window with a message saying “We have received your review. It requires approval.”. You can change this message from the “Approval Notification Text” text area.

Approving a Pending Review

All the submitted reviews will be available in “Directory Listing → Reviews“.

To approve a review go to the edit page of the review by clicking on Edit link of it, then change the Status option to Approve and click on Update. That's how you can manage reviews in Directorist.
