Plugin is 100% compatible with WP 2.8. But since WP 2.8 is acting a lot when PHP is set to low memory (32MB is not enough anymore), it can happen that some plugins fail. I use WP 2.8 on all my blog right now, and each of them has GDSR ative, and I have no problems, as well as many more people that use it.

If something is not working when plugin is active it doesn’t mean that it’s plugins fault, many other factors can be involved. If something fails, like TinyMCE grab me the errors returend and I will check if the GDSR is the problem.

Great plugin but man is it finicky! I’ve had to deactivate it. It screws up my entire site. The tinymce editor goes missing, certain posts go missing. Weird stuff. Maybe it’s incompatible with WP 2.8?

I will need more info. But if the issue is not a bug, I can’t help you.

Thanks for the plugin but I’m having difficulty getting the comment ratings to total as an average within the post

You need to set the new template in the widget. Top of the widget settings have template field, select one you created. Default templates page is for setting templates for integration functions.

Thanks for the help.

I’ve created a new template and set it as the default for “Widget Star Rating” but it hasn’t changed.

Am I updated the right thing?

Thanks.

Widget displays the list, so it’s natural to show data as list using UL/LI. But if you want to change the display you need to create your own T2 template for the widget (check T2 map for reference), and to instruct the widget to use your template instead of the default one. Templates are HTML/CSS with use of the custom %TAG% tags.

The theme isn’t putting the bullet points there – your code is.

All I want is to take the li tags out.

Excerpt tag will be added in next version. As for the bullet, the problem is caused by your theme. You need to modify CSS.

Ok, I’ll leave the excerpt for now.

But how do I get rid of the bullet points? Which file do I modify to get rid of the li tags so the bullet points aren’t there?

Thanks,

Emma

I don’t understand exactly what you are trying do and what files you want to change. Plugin doens’t require any changes to any files, so you need to explain better. At this point GD Star Rating widget can’t show excerpt, but I will add that soon.

Hi,

I’m trying to customize the widget for this to show the most popular posts but I don’t know which file it looks at to display it.

At the mo’ it shows a bullet point for each one and I want it to show an excerpt of the post.

That I think I can do, but without knowing where to change it I’m stuck.

Please help.

The site I’m customising is here: http://www.emzi.dreamhosters.com/wordpress_test/

Thanks.

Fantastic news — thanks so much!

Well, I can confirm that this feature will be added in GD Star Rating 1.5.0, that will be released in the next two weeks (or even earlier).

Thanks for letting me know. I switched back to wp-postrating for the time being, but I like all the other features of gd star rating better, so I’ll switch back after you add this sorting feature.

Have a great weekend,
Erika

This is going to be added soon. Sorting can be done even now, but you need to make changes to WP_Query object, but it’s not that simple.

I guess the reason ‘most voted list’s comment wasn’t addressed was because it is answered in the docs somewhere?

I’ve spent a long time trying to figure out how to sort my posts in order of rating. My blog is purely about ratings, so date-based sorting is out.

I don’t need a sidebar widget, I just want to sort by post rating. Is this possible?

Thanks,
Erika
