Hi,
You can change your HikaShop vote configuration in order to not have the vote & comment connected.
The issue you got in the vendor page will be also in the product page ; because the two elements are using the same vote views.
The other solution will be to modify the "vote | mini" view in order to not let the user be able to vote in that part (when the option is activated).
Thanks to that, the user will just see the vote score and will vote&comment in the dedicated part.
I'll prepare some modifications in HikaShop for the next release.
