Default Re: Rich Google Search Results module released

There's more... you should be ashamed for selling this for $79 without proper documentation or a working installer!

The docs say there are 5 templates to patch for 4.5.4 - 4 are in "your skin", and one is in -- hold on there...

Quote:
./customer/bread_crumbs.tpl.patch
./customer/home.tpl.patch
./customer/main/product.tpl.patch
./customer/main/product_details.tpl.patch
./modules/Customer_Reviews/vote_bar.tpl.patch

Hold on a moment -- what about ADVANCED Customer Reviews? Please dont' tell me that ACR uses the vote_bar.tpl from a module that is disabled? Seriously? No, it doesn't.

Um, did I get the most recent distribution in my file area?
Are the docs here:
http://help.x-cart.com/index.php?title=X-Cart:Rich_Google_Search_Results

But the docs want me to patch ./modules/Customer_Reviews/vote_bar.tpl
-- why not
/common_files/modules/Advanced_Customer_Reviews/vote_bar.tpl
???

Sheesh.
This is NOT a complicated install -- it's only 5 templates and 1 php file. Why do you have to patch every possible skin file and files not-used?

SHOULDN'T the install for this product be simplified to reflect how simple it really is?

1. copy files: /modules/Rich_Google_Search_Results
2. patch php file: product.php
3. patch tpl files: ./customer/bread_crumbs.tpl.patch
./customer/home.tpl.patch
./customer/main/product.tpl.patch
./customer/main/product_details.tpl.patch
./modules/Customer_Reviews/vote_bar.tpl.patch
4. Run sql

F**k the installer!!! Why can't you guys make an installer for this that's on the scale of an Altered Cart or WebsiteCM or BCSE or any other professional software --

File name: xyz
FIND: <old code>
after, INSERT <new code>

This is really not very complicated.
I think you guys have made a mess of this installer and overly complicated things.

I am 50/50 on the fence of requesting a refund simply because the installer sucks.
