I've got a piece of content that display the votes correctly (stars + text) when the fivestar field has 'Expose the widget for this display' ticked, however it does not work quite so well when it is not ticked.

Instead I am just shown the empty white stars and no text.

Hmm, I didn''t even realized you could do that. Thats a mistake and you shouldn't have the option of unchecking that box.

I'll remove that option.

This is also an issue if the user doesn't have the rate content permission.

Oh, I thought the point was to replace the static display.
i.e. to not allow voting, just display the current rating.

What is the correct way to have a static fivestar display? I do not want to allow users to vote on teasers, just the full node.

@Shadlington yea, you're right, I'm a little off today ;)

The issue is that its assuming the widget its a regular stars (while you edit) widget. So it's not looking up the votingapi votes. I'll have a fix for this later in the day.

Thanks for the bug report.

Wondering what the status of this is? I've got a custom content type with a fivestar field on the comment where the voting target is Parent Node. When I have a field on the node set to "Rate on View" and "Exposed", it lets me vote on both the node and the comment (when I only want the comment). When I change Exposed to no, it doesn't show me the average. I'm assuming it's supposed to?

Is this not fix on the latest dev? I think it got fixed together with another issue.

I can confirm that this is indeed fixed on the latest version with a clean install of fivestar.

I'll wait for feedback before closing this issue.

Well I just discovered this issue with the latest dev version (sept 13th) . If I set the node fivestar Widget type to "rate while editing" the node stars don't show any rating even though the comments rating field has the perent reference set. If I change the Widget type to "rate while viewing" it works as expected.

@future assassin That is not a bug, thats how its supposed to work.

If you select "rate while editing" The only thing thats going to display is what you set the stars as when editing the node. Not an aggregated value.

If you need support help, please open a new issue and I'll be sure to document what you would like to accomplished.

Thanks.

This doesn't appear to be resolved using panels (using a token in the template) or views (displaying as field with widget exposed). The rating gets stored in the votingapi_vote table, but shows empty stars with no votes yet. I tried a fresh fivestar uninstall/install but no joy.

@robomal, Please explain your issues further.

I've tested this and it works, other people can also confirm this now works -- http://drupal.org/node/1224700#comment-4989352

Can you tell me exactly what your doing? and where you're having issues.

Also it might be worth opening a support issue for your problem as I don't think its an actual bug.

Thanks.

We are using the "Content: Rating" field on a view using fields. It doesn't seem to matter whether we are exposing the widget or not. When you click a star to rate, the stars change color. The next time you visit the page or refresh, the stars are reset (white in the center). However, the score is stored in the database. This is also the problem when using the %node:field_rating replacement in a panel.

I am using the latest dev release of Fivestar (Sept. 14) and Voting API 7.x-2.4.
