Fivestar Extra
Fivestar Extra extends the Fivestar module to enable the rating of comments and users.
For rating comments, a little rating widget will appear above or below the comment body.
For rating users, a rating widget appears on the user page.
Both ratings widgets are configurable to much the same extent as Fivestar itself.
Dependencies
- fivestar
- votingapi (This is a dependancy of fivestar, so if you've installed fivestar, you've got this)
Install
Installing the fivestarextra module is simple:
- Install and enable fivestar.
- Copy the fivestarextra folder to the modules folder in your installation.
- Enable fivestarextra using Administer -> Modules (/admin/build/modules).
Quickstart
The rating starts as disabled. You have to enable it like this:
Under Adminster -> Site configuration, you will see two new links: "Fivestar Comments Rating" and "Fivestar Users Rating".
The pages these links go to are very similar to the fivestar node types configuration settings, so they should be self explanatory.
Drupal 5
The current maintainer learnt Drupal on D6 and has never used D5, so D5 support isn't going to come from him. Sorry.
Support
If you experience a problem with fivestarextra or have a problem, file a request or issue on the fivestarextra queue at
http://drupal.org/project/issues/fivestarextra. DO NOT POST IN THE FORUMS.
Posting in the issue queues is a direct line of communication with the module author, who will almost certainly not ignore you.
Thanks
To quicksketch for patching fivestar to make the release of this module possible.
To the fivestar authors generally, whose work I have copied, pasted and relabelled as my own in large quantities*
(*Actually, where I have decided to copy, paste and alter, it's attributed.)
