lisster,
Did you ever figure this out? I’m trying to figure out how to edit the display of the voting system. I see all the template variables, but I just don’t know the syntax to use, or where to put the variables.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave
lisster,
I found a support topic that has the answer:
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-postratings-stars-and-text-on-the-post-and-just-the-stars-on-the-index?replies=3
It looks like this:
<?php if(function_exists('the_ratings')) { echo expand_ratings_template('<span class="rating">%RATINGS_IMAGES%</span> <strong>%RATINGS_USERS% votes</strong>', get_the_ID()); } ?>
You can see a full list of the template variables (the things inside the % sign) in the WP admin section, Ratings > Ratings Templates.
Does anybody knows how to make to call this with a shortcode?
Thanks Escape Creative – works perfectly.
MaxTrix – the templates/variable options are global for the [ratings] shortcode via the options page. If you are fine with using a global setup for the templates then edit the Ratings Template options and use the shortcode [ratings] on your page/post. But if you want different templates/variables for different pages/posts and don’t want to dabble into PHP/template files, CSS might be the best option. Wrap template variables with custom classes and and show/hide across your various pages/posts via the CSS “display” property.
I figured that out already, at the bottom I show the full template and on top I put it in a div and set a font size 0px 🙂 And that works fine.
However thanks for your answer!
