This works fairly well. It would be nice if there were an option to show “#/5” rather than the stars. Many themes like mine have rather narrow widgets and when each post takes 2-3 lines the formatting isn’t great.

It may also be wise to have a setting like: only show posts that have x or more votes.

What I am finding is an unpopular post has only 1 vote of 5/5 and it stays in the top of the widget, even though others have more votes.

Gotta say, this thing works great for such a new plugin and I have it working with MU install, W3 Total Cache including CDN Caching. Couldn’t get any others to work with my configuration. This thing just works. Great job!

I think I figured it out.

Because I am using 2 pages/templates to split my blog index by category, I had to enable the “Page” rating to see it in by index/loop.

But I do notice that it is not respecting my advanced font color which is #CCCCCC for all 4 widget setting tabs.
Chek it out here.

Further is there a php function I could just insert into my 2 blog templates so that the ratings don’t show up on other pages?

Thanks,

I ended up creating a function in my child theme to take car of this. and then called the function instead of using the post thumbnail function.

the code for the function looks like this:

<?php
function fc_rel_thumb($postid=0, $size='squareThumb', $attributes='') {
	if ($postid<1) $postid = get_the_ID();
	if ($images = get_children(array(
		'post_parent' => $postid,
		'post_type' => 'attachment',
		'numberposts' => 1,
		'post_mime_type' => 'image', )))
		foreach($images as $image) {
			$thumbnail=wp_get_attachment_image_src($image->ID, $size);
			?>
<img src="<?php echo $thumbnail[0]; ?>" <?php echo $attributes; ?> />
<?php
		}
	else {
		echo '<img src=' . get_bloginfo ( 'stylesheet_directory' );
		echo '/images/no-attachment.gif>';
	}

}
add_image_size('squareThumb', 85, 85, true);
?>
