Integrate with Panels UI

Can you please explain? I see all the content of the node get displayed when I do what you have suggested. I don't see the rate widget.

Thank you for the response.

I can get the rate widget in the panels pane along with the rest of the node content. How can I pull 'only the rate widget' in a pane?

Thanks,

I can pull the rate widget now using custom php code given in the README file with the module.

if (arg(0) == 'node' && is_numeric(arg(1)) && $node = node_load(arg(1))) {
  node_invoke_nodeapi($node, 'view');
  print $node->rate_NAME['#value'];
}

Replace NAME by the widget's machine readable name.

However, I also need 'review text' along with the rating. Users will be rating the product and writing reviews. So far, this module has allowed me to rate products, but not write the reviews. Anyone with similar need?

That sounds like another issue, perhaps another module or a sister module.

I still cant get it to appear on the page. where is this "no extras" checkbox - cant find it anywhere. im using panels-7.x-3.0.

if someone can point me to the right direction, i would really appreciate it.

Rate widget should implement hook_field_extra_fields() to be usable in panels and field_ui
Also there's attempt to make rate a field #1244858: Rate field

In the attached patch I've written a basic integration for panels.
If you have a node context in your page you can insert a widget for this node and choose it's view mode. At the moment I haven't found a way to limit the widgets to choose from to only the ones that are enabled for this nodetype. This means you can insert every widget for every node!

As you now have the option to insert multiple of the same identical widgets at different locations of your page, I would recommend to also apply the patch from #1676746: Addtional Classes and more unique ID. This will add the benefit that all of your widgets get updated automatically if you vote on one.

@mauritsl: Please let me know if you would like to include such functionality into rate or if you would prefer to put this into a seperate module, because then I would create a new project called something like rate_panels/rate_extras.

Edit:
Forgot to mention: the patch is against rate-7.x-1.3

Patch works, thank you!

Needs a new line at the end of file.

I'm tested with Rate 7.x-1.6 and works well!

Rerolled the patch against latest in git which is pretty much the 1.6 release.

Nice work.
Will see if I can create a 1.7 release in the coming week.

I think the issue #1676746: Addtional Classes and more unique ID I mentioned in my previous comment should also be included in the upcoming release. So it would be nice if someone could review it.

Any progress here? I want to use Rate module with Panels!

2 neofelis1985: patch #14 works, what additional progress are you looking for?

Patch is committed to 7.x-1.x and included in the 1.7 release. Thanks!

I found a bug:

1. add a widget (/admin/structure/rate/1/edit) and set "Appearance in full node" to "Compact"
2. add the Rate widget through Panels (Node template) with "Build mode" to "RATE_COMPACT"

The voting won't work correctly:

• If I click on an option, the votes won't update unless I refresh the page.
• If I visit the Voting results tab before refreshing, votes won't be updated either!

Basically to make it work you have to always set "Appearance" to "Full widget" in the rate widget settings, regardless of what you choose under "Node display" or later in Panels.

Drupal 7 is EOL. Issue will be closed, but patches are still here
