Show spinner/loading image while processing

    Hi,

    It’s a nice plugin and very light weighted. I was trying to customize it for a website that I am working on. ??

    Although I was looking for a way to add a spinner (loading.gif) image on click.

    Right now when someone click on vote +/- button, it takes 1-2 seconds to vote and during that time nothing happens.

    I was wondering is there a way to display loading.gif on click and disappear when voting count updates. Should be able to do with jQuery just like “already voted message”.

    Haven’t tried but maybe you can do that by attaching an event handler to the vote buttons.

    Maybe you’ll have to change the plugin’s code.

    Hi Rick.

    Yes I have done that. You are right, I had to modify the plugin code, so finally I moved it as theme include since I will not be able to update it.

    Thanks for the awesome plugin! ??

    Glad you could do it. You could have also just changed the files directly and edit the version number to 99. So you don’t need to put the files in your theme ??

    That’s ok because I was not using admin +/- interface and shortcodes. So it’s only 2 functions for me that I added in my functions.php and of course .js and .css file too. Working great!

    Although I would suggest you to also add one more meta key for “Total number of rating” because a lot of people would like to display most rates posts, just like most up and down rated posts. ??
