Missing id for this query suggests that tables are not created properly. This suggest problem with gdsr_multis_data table: either is missing or invalid. What mySQL you are using?

I have never seen behavior like this, but something is definitly slowing donw the response. Maybe your mysql server is set with short time out and the delays caused by the website or some plugin in wordpress are the real problem. I don't know much about setting the servers, so I can't offer you some proctical solution for this. All ratings use the same file to send the votes, and the voting procedure is the same in every way.

But apparently the server was having problems when you tried to visit the page. Page loading times are around the 10-12s mark here in Australia where the server is located. I tried deactivating a custom plugin that I thought might be causing a problem, but it made no difference. I created a new sample post and inserted two different multisets. But I still get the same behaviour. The odd thing is that the GDstar post rating on the same post does work as expected. Thank you again in advance for any advice you may be able to offer me as to how I might track down the problem. Hi again,

As for your problem, response recevied when I tried to vote is error 500: internal server error, error establishing database connection. Also, I needed to refresh page 5-6 times before the page even loaded fully. Something is definitly wrong with the setup of the website, becuase takes forever to load. Database error is generated by WordPress, becasue for saving votes WordPress engine is used. Beyond that I can't help you. Forum should be ok, try registering now.

I've installed the latest version of the plugin on WP 2.7.1 and have then created a multiset and used the shortcode to insert into a post here: http://www.realsurf.com/2009/03/08/testing-stuff-on-sunday-arvo/ The selection process seems to go well until I click the submit button. At that point the daisy progress indicator appears and nothing else happens. It just sits there. I've looked through the pdf, checked the topics on the forum that address the version of the plugin I'm using and have confirmed with Firebug that there are no javascript errors related to the plug in. So, I've run out of ideas... and I am very keen to try this plugin out as it looks pretty close to what I want. Thank you in advance and may I join the many others who have expressed admiration for your impressive plug in and very extensive support materials.

It requires changes to the theme to modify the comments form (no other way to do this), and more details you can find in user guide. Also, I am working on similar feature with multi ratings, and after that I will add a tutorial (most likely end of the next week). This can be done already using comments review rating.

Thanks for your time and support Cheers M Hi Millan,

I have a website where I review products, I would like to set my star rating for a product and allow users to leave a comment with their individual rating for the product I have reviewed (rather than users rating other peoples comments)

Is this possible?

Thanks for your time and support

Cheers

Besides your plug-in I will be using fun-with-in-text-comments found here ( http://www.wp-fun.co.uk/fun-with-in-context-comments/ ) as well as some more popular ones such as ravatar and subscribe to comments. I also see that the wordpress guys are dev a neat comment service at http://intensedebate.com/ though not sure if im using it. I was just wondering if using other comment plug-ins and hack would effect GD star rating. Cheers. Well I just trying to make the wordpress comments more feature rich for users.

Just one more question as I try to address the future. Does GD replace a lot of the default wordpress comment code and make other comments plug-in or hacks hard to use? I ask this because I was planning on using other mods to my comments such as the the user vote plug-in and also custom fields ( plug-in or hack). So I wonder if I should just wait for 1.1.7 and work around it. cheers. Sweet.
