 * Hi,
 * I installe a plugin called vote it up [.](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/vote-it-up/installation/)
 * It says: “You will need to insert the relevant code (<?php DisplayVotes(get_the_ID());?
   >) into the WordPress loop.”
 * I read from the wp forum about the loop ([http://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop](http://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop))
   that “The Loop should be placed in index.php and in any other Templates used 
   to display post information.” I’m using Arras theme and don’t know what other
   templates are used to display post information?
 * **1.** Where do I find the places to post this piece of code?
 * **2.** Do I add it in a random place in the text file?
 * **3.** It says in the wp Loop forum: “Be sure to include the call for the header
   Template at the top of your Theme’s Templates. If you are using The Loop inside
   your own design (and your own design is not a template), set WP_USE_THEMES to
   false.” Could someone explain this to me please?
 * Right now I added the code to single.php and not to index.php, because this is
   the contents of themes/arras/index.php [http://imgur.com/VIOQA](http://imgur.com/VIOQA)
   and nothing happened if I added the code there. Anyway, I seem to get the voting
   box next to my posts, but I cannot vote. Here [http://imgur.com/WMaxF](http://imgur.com/WMaxF)
   is what I did with voting buttons from the settings, they don’t function, they
   are only images.
 * Hope this isn’t too long. Thanks a lot to anyone bothering to answer, cheers!
