Different ratings per posts

    Hi, I am having a problem getting different ratings to appear on separate posts.
    As an example, on post 1 I included [ratings id=”1″] on post 2 I included [ratings id=”2″].
    In WP admin I have to choose one of the listed “Ratings Image:” so I chose (squares) which happens to be the 7th down on the list
    My understanding that when the post is displayed I should have different rating images on posts 1 and 2.
    Well, that doesn’t happen. Squares are displayed on both posts, but if I inspect the code for both pages, I see that Post1 has <span id=”post-ratings-1″ class”post-ratings”….> and Post2 has <span id=”post-ratings-2″ class”post-ratings”….> and yet both posts display the same rating images the (squares).

    What am I doing wrong that my shortcode in the individual posts is not fully implemented, I just started this site, testing it locally, and I only have slider revolution installed aside from this plugin, no caching or any other distraction.
    Can anyone help? HOw do I go about putting different rating images on different posts if the method I used is not working [ratings id=”1″] and [ratings id=”2″].
    Thanks!!

    You are wrong on how the plugin works. The plugin uses a global template and hence it will be the same image for the whole site.

    Thank you very much for the quick reply. I figured as much after I played around in the files for a while.

    Then the real challenge is that I am trying to give the user the option to only display posts that have NOT been rated and got into the files,
    I know you have a function check_rated ($post_id) which would do the trick but couldn’t figure out how to use it to filter out the posts since my background is in python not php, so I gave up.

    Thank you for the reply though.
