Greetings, all.

I've been trying to figure out how to display a fivestar voting result in teaser view ... But the result only, so that people can't vote without viewing the full node. But I'm not having much luck.

I can create views which have this functionality (displaying only the result), so I'm sure a function must exist ... but how would I go about adding this to a node teaser?

Thanks in advance!

The best way to do this is by defining some new variables in your template.php file and then using them in your node.tpl.php files.

  $vars['current_rating'] = votingapi_get_voting_result('node', $vars['node']->nid, 'percent', 'vote', 'average');
  $vars['vote_display'] = theme('fivestar_static', $vars['current_rating']->value);

If you're not familiar with using template.php, you could use this slightly more hackish approach, either using contemplate module or directly in your node.tpl.php files.

  $current_rating = votingapi_get_voting_result('node', $node->nid, 'percent', 'vote', 'average');
  print theme('fivestar_static', _rating->value);

Almost perfect ... the second option should be written as:

print theme('fivestar_static', $current_rating->value);

But you gave me enough that I was able to piece it together from there ... the 'fivestar_static' function was the piece I was missing.

Many thanks!

I came across this issue looking for the solution in Drupal 6

In case anyone else needs it - put the following in hook_preprocess_node()

$criteria = array('content_id' => $vars['nid'], 'value_type' => 'percent');      
$current_rating = votingapi_select_single_result_value($criteria ); 
$vars['vote_display'] = theme('fivestar_static', $current_rating);

(assuming your votes are for nodes)

How about if I want to print the average in numeric value?

evilgenius,

If you have a new question, please open it as a new issue. (You could, however, place a link to this issue in your new issue, to help provide context.)

As for your question, output the $current_rating value directly (without wrapping it in the theme() function).
