Another minor revision after 1.5.1 is here. And again, I am proven to be bad in testing my own code, since I missed few errors. Also, there were many problems with importing data from other rating plugins, and that is also fixed in this release.
If you want to transfer your existing ratings from WP PostRatings plugin, now you can do it. Some changes in database layout, weren’t incorporated into the import SQL queries, but I have fixed that now. Please test it, and if you find any more problems report it back here.
I also fixed few problems found in the new cache and prefetch features. There was a problem with deleting comments that use integration, and after comment deletion votes remain in the database. That is now fixed for both integrated standard and multi ratings.

Well, I said many times, don’t add nothing into plugin folder. Every time you update, WordPress deletes the folder with the plugin. All extra stars should go into extras folder: wp-content/gd-star-rating/stars.

I have a quick question :
How can I put the Stars and Rating text in the same line (rating text after Stars)?
for exemple :
star1 star2 star3 star4 star5 – Rating: 5.0/5 (1 vote cast)
Thanks

Trust me, you can do anything with templates. But you need a bit of knowledge of HTML and CSS.

Millan,
Where do you place/edit the CSS that applies to the templates? The linked CSS in the configuration page (rating.css) is not nearly as complete as the CSS that gets returned to a browser when it loads a page with the ratings installed. Where are we supposed to implement the CSS that affect alignment of the Standard Rating Block? The T2 Templates post (http://www.gdstarrating.com/2009/04/20/t2-templates-system/) suggests the alignment functionality was removed from the plugin since it can be accomplished with CSS applied to Templates, but I just can’t find it.
Thanks

Main CSS file is not to be meddled with. It’s generated through PHP, so you can’t actually see it in the completed form before is served to the browser. All changes you need add to rating.css, it’s loaded after main CSS and will override styles you set in it.

Widgets work just fine. Most likely you didn’t set it right.

You don’t need PHP to set up the widget. Widget is set visually. Check tutorials on them.

Well, my guess is that you didn’t look hard enough. Most of the times reason for nothing shown is a setting for minimal number of votes for posts to be included. Default is 5. So if you don’t have any post with 5 votes, nothing will be shown.

next step is to create a wp theme having GDRating integrated.
Like I said in other comment, you’re doing a very good job with this plugin. Little bit complex for me even if I had getting used with wp, but after all what I can want more than a free and customizable rating wp plugin.
Thank you!

My Starscape theme already has GDSR integration. But, I plan to talk to many WP theme designers for cooperation on making new or updated existing themes to have integrated support for GDSR.
