Scott Heavner ratings plugin problem

  • Hey I’m having a ton of trouble installing this ratings plug in by scott heavner.

    I do not understand because it says to add different codes to my index.php, one after the ‘require header and another after the content.

    I dont understand which index it means though, like is it the actual main index that is generated by wordpress that is only 2 lines (world simplest index)? Or is it the themes index? Or do I just link to the index.php that comes with the plugin?

    Lost and confused,

    J~

  • I know nothing of the plugin, but when they want you to add code, it is ALWAYS (well, should be) in the Theme files.

    In other words /yourBlog/wp-content/themes/yourTheme/index.php is the one you want to maul.

    quote from the tutorial:

    “
    i include this twice in my index.php Once immediately after require(‘./wp-blog-header.php’) at the top of the file:

    <?php

    /* Don’t remove this line. */

    require(‘./wp-blog-header.php’);

    rating_the_form(‘process_only=1&rating_field=user_rating’);

    ?>

    and again just after the content

    <div class=”storycontent”>

    <?php the_content(); ?>

    <?php rating_the_form(‘rating_field=user_rating’); ?>

    </div>”

    I don’t understand it because in the themes index.php, there is no “require” command, but in the main index.php there’s basically nothing at all.

    anyway, ill try to tamper with it,

    1. Wiki is just for archive purposes for old WP versions. Forget it if you have 1.5 and newer…
    2. The online documentation is here: Codex
    3. That text refers to 1.2 WP version.
    4. There are other rating Plugins compatible with 2.0.
