The Mentor Program

Contributor: solita solita
As Kynky Kytty's student, I can say for a fact that a week ago there was no submit to mentor button, but only yesterday I found this problem to have been resolved. It not only has a brand spankin' new "Submit to Mentor" button, but this button is already highlighted for you, with a clear warning beside the "Submit to Administrator" button. Thank goodness!

I asked my student to check again today, and she said there's still no "Submit to Mentor" button. Here's hoping our issue gets resolved quickly as well. Thank you for sharing!

Oh, I see what happened... I sent Kytty a review of something I purchased on my own. Any assigned reviews still lack the "Submit to Mentor" button.

Because of this problem, why not just do away with the submit to administrator button for students? It seems better, to me, to ONLY have a "Submit to mentor" button for the students, as that's the whole purpose, correct? It gives a more intimate relationship between the mentor and student.

The button "Submit to Mentor" will appear in student account if:

- The student have an active class.
- The review category can be identified automatically based on product.

(If review category is not possible to identify based on product you will see an appropriate warning that review can be submitted to administrator only.)

Review categories can be automatically identified for all major categories such as vibrators, dildos, masturbators, anal toys, and dildo harnesses.

Before writing a review, the students can go the product list, select a product, click "write review" button and if the button "Submit to Mentor" button is present the review can be submitted to Mentor.

Without a review category we cannot publish the product because it is required to create a URL for review.

I'm not quite sure I understand this.. Maybe having my sisters running around screaming has given me brain damage. In any case, if something was submitted to a student by an administrator as a push assignment, then shouldn't it have been an item that could be identified automatically in a category? Just sayin'. What good are the push assignments to both students and mentors if items are getting assigned for reviews that cannot take place in the classroom?

The review category is assigned to the review during the publication automatically or by administrator manually when the review already exists.

The products for which review category cannot be identified automatically should NOT be selected for the classroom.

Could you please provide with a product code and we can try to identify how to resolve this issue on Monday.

Thank you.

Hmmm seems there have been some bugs and confusion.

I have been confused at times, but was able to figure everything out and am currently very happy with the program for the most part.

For mine it's SE053404 or SE053422. I'm not sure of the color.

We have identified an error that prevents submitting an assigned review to the Mentor. The error will be fixed this week. I will make a separate post when it is done.

The button "Submit to Mentor" should be available now for the assigned reviews.

I haven't heard from one of my students in over a week. What do I do?

We're having a similar problem with one, and for the other we haven't heard anything back about her push assignment, which was submitted a few days ago.

Do we have to wait for them to respond or can we cancel the class? Do we still get paid if we have to do that?

If you cancel the class, the gift card will not be issued. The gift cards are issued for finished classes only. (either Graduate or The student didn't pass)

My next question is how do we initiate push reviews for the student? And is there/will there be a way to edit our areas of expertise if we feel we're strong enough in those to want to list?
Send your push requests to me. (Please include item suggestions & student name).

Being able to edit the areas of expertise is in the works.

Thank you for posting this information, it's very helpful for learning about the Mentor/Student program! Whoever came up with this concept; GREAT idea! I'm still new to writing my own reviews, and although I have ample product experience; I still have a hard time gathering my thoughts to write an extremely useful review. I've submitted a few requests to be a student, so hopefully someone picks me!

I think the Mentor program is doing very well. I've seen the difference having a mentor can make in a new reviewer and actually think it's the better system of the two available to become an advanced reviewer.

If you're a new contributor/reviewer and don't have a mentor yet, it's well worth getting a mentor for Eden's review program.

I've seen this asked before, but I've yet to see an answer. I figure it's just gotten lost beneath a lot of other questions, so I'm certainly not upset. Anyhoo, the question was: Is there a way to edit our areas of expertise? I just typed in "vibrators and dildo," but have since realized I want to flesh that out a bit and "sell" myself as a mentor, as it were.
