Mmmm… there are actualy know stars in the list / dropdowns at all ? Its as if something has not worked in the install. Could it be a database issue ?

Maybe you are using stars that are not there anymore. Check all the settings, and save them to be sure.

Hi,

Have recently upgraded … but have now lost the actual images for the stars ?

Any thoughts ?

That was possible even with the old pre 1.0.0 versions released 7 or 8 months ago. You can insert shortcode with similar settings as the ones for the widget. Shortcode is inserted through the editor button.

Hey there,

Was wondering if it’s now possible to display top rated posts inside a page?

Widget sorting is already implemented and sorts both ratings and number of posts.

As for the stars problem, it could be problem with css of your theme.

Hi, great updates!. I’m only having two problems. One is that some posts that have already been voted display all gray stars, but I can read below that the real rating is maybe 3.3/5 and not 0/5.
The other problem is something that I asked for some time ago and you had implemented it, but not in this version. It was about the post ratings widget, having the possibility to sort posts with the same vote by leaving on top the ones with more votes.
i.e: 5/5(10 votes), then 5/5(3 votes) and then 4/5(2 votes)
thank you very much. Really appreciate all your effort.

Just wanted to update and say I fixed the problem by resetting the settings to the default. Back to normal now! Thanks for the tips – it helped me figure out what to do!

I don’t know why that happens, but my guess is because the settings are not saved properly. This goess even with default settings, because if they have been saved than rating dropdown will go from 1 to 5. Since the settings are saved through WordPress and has nothing to do with plugin itslef, then I still believe that it has something with WordPress and some security problem.

I assure you that plugin works with every WordPress from 2.5.0 to 2.8.0. I can’t help you unless I can recreate the conditions of the problem.

*sigh* And again. Okay so where the post review section is on the write screen – there’s two dropdowns to choose the review/rating you are giving. The first dropdown only contains a slash (/) and a zero – not the number 1-5. I think THAT is what is causing the error?

Sorry for the double post but I’m still getting the error from the first post. I’ve solved the 2nd problem, not being able to save changes. It was a diff. plugin causing that problem.

Is there anything I should be checking as to the first error?

By: J

Oh I’ve confirmed that the images DO exist, by the way. Still haven’t figured out why I can’t save ANY setting changes.

Never seen something like that. I am not sure what the problem is. The question you get is WordPress security question, but I don’t know what could trigger that.

Hmm thanks. When I went to change the star set, it goes to a page that says this and only this:

Are you sure you want to do this?

Please try again.

With nowhere to click “Yes, I want to do this” or similar?

I am not sure about the error, most likely problem is with the star set you have selected (maybe is missing).

As for the other thing, this can’t be done at this point.

Hi there,

Iâ€™m getting this error with the plugin (this version):

Fatal error: Call to a member function get_url() on a non-object in standard_render.php on line 51 (I edited out my absolute path). Any ideas?

Also, is there a way to have customized text for each # of stars. Like 1 star would output â€œDo not waste your moneyâ€ 2 stars could say â€œUp to you if you want to buyâ€ and so on?

Thanks for the great plugin!
