Settings Explained Part 3.
Finally, I have managed to find enough time to write the third post about settings. First, I will write short update on some of the changes done for the settings. As you know some of them are removed and updated. So, read on…
Widget: GD Star Rating #1
This widget can be set do display list of posts with ratings and rating trends. Widget supports filtering, sorting, templates and multiple instances, so you can add more than one of them in the sidebar with different settings.
Customization: CSS Intro
The number of blogs using GD Star Rating is rising, and with that need for customization of rating blocks to fit into the theme design also rises. Latest 1.1.4 release adds some things that will further help to achive just that.
Multi Ratings
The long list of GD Star Rating features has just been expanded with advanced and long waited multi ratings that will allow you to set post or pages rating that can have more then one rating set. You can create as many multi rating sets as you want and each one can have up to 10 rating elements with different names and weights. Each post can have more than one set at the same time.
Installing additional sets
All customizations you made in the plugin folder will be gone after using WordPress auto update feature. I only include few sets with plugin distribution, and you can download and install additional sets if you want.
Website Updated
I have started to add more contents to the website. Right now you have several additional stars sets available for download. For each set you can see an image with preview so you can pick only stars that will fit your blog best.
GD Star Rating 1.0.9
Here is the first release in the 2009. This new version brings us very close to multi ratings being finally functional. But main focus of this release is jquery, tinymce plugin improvements, code cleanup and bug fixes.
Features Overview
Here you can find full list of plugin features. In this category will be all posts with detailed description of all features. Since there a re a lot of features it will take me some time to write about all of them. You can use user guide for now.
A WordPress Rating System
GD Star Rating plugin allows you to set up rating system for posts, pages and comments in your blog. You can set many options for displaying the rating stars, and also add widgets into the sidebars for displaying top ratings and other statistics generated by the plugin.
