I know this is probbably a stuipid question but I’m trying to integrate GD Star Rating into my blog and I can’t figure out what code to put for Manual Insertion.
Basically I want the current stars to show up on my home page next to the title of the post. Please advise! Thanks

I am not sure I understand what you mean. But you can add CSS classes to any rating block. Enable CSS settings on the general tab, and you can add additional CSS classes to each rating block.

Found the problem, it’s a known one, and you can find it in WordPress related problems post, and it’s the first one, cross domain problem.

Well, the message you get is not actually error. Plugin first try to see if the wp-content is writable. If it is than it tries to create gd-star-rating folder, and in it cache folder. Check if the wp-content is writable, and also try making gd-star-rating folder in wp-content manually. Maybe some server settings is causing problems. There are too many server types, and php settings I can’t test all that, and that’s why the message expains what the problem could be.

As fro the other problem, please read all the posts here about potential problems (tutorials category), 99% that the answer is there, but you need to really try all that. If nothing helps send me the url with plugin and I will take a look.

Hi – great work with this!

I’m getting this error below (with 1.1.3) – even though the folders are writeable. I even tried 777. Also the “rank wheel” just keeps spinning when a star is clicked – any thoughts?

*****For cache to work, plugin must be able to access cache folder. Plugin has tried to create folders needed and failed. Until you resolved this issue cache feature can’t be used.

Either make wp-content folder writeable or create gd-star-rating folder in wp-content and make it writeable. Use 0755 chmod setting.*****

Donation coming – promise

This can sound noob, but what is SVN?

Fixed version is on SVN now.

Yes, I know about this, but the strange thing is that this is javascript, and it should be included in validation at all. I will investigate this.

Hi Milan,

Thanks for the frequent updates. One minor problem though: it’s not validating anymore. Not only on my blog, but here too.

It’s detecting 2 errors, 2 warnings on the following two lines:

(var i = 0; i < json.values.length; i++)

(var i = 0; i < rating_values.length; i++) {

I know it’s not something to worry about too much, but just letting you know.

Thanks!

What this have to do with GD Star Rating?

You can modify comment upload to add anything you want and will require changed form in the theme and custom handling of received data.

This will be fixed in next release. It’s strange that is reported as an error in the first place, your mysql must be set to very strict settings, this doesn’t appaer as error on any of the mysql servers I tested on.

Any way to allow those submitting a comment to upload video, pictures, and MP3s?

There is something wrong with your installation. This means that tables were not created as they should have. Check the database to see if the tables are there. If they are not, try using reinstall function on Setup panel. If that doesn’t help, check the mySQL and PHP version and post it here.
