My sincerest thanks for writing such a much desired plugin. I have only just downloaded it and given it a quick test, and browsed some of the comments and registered on the forum and I must say the plugin, the suppiort and everything else is just great. No sorry, its absolutely fantastic.

Mitch,

I’ll put the ratings update on the list…

As for the jQuery conflict, can you point me to a page where the conflict happens? I’m not familiar with content glider.

I’d like to see if I can see what the conflict is.

Thanks for the reply, can you make it where you rate the pictures and it moves up stats?

**************************************************
The conflict is pin pointed to the direct file but not sure how to approach it. Photosmash ratings jquery conflicts for some reason on the featured content glider.

Is there a solution to fix the jquery file.

Very welcome! I do need to add the Sort by highest rated. And also add a Special Gallery (like Random and Most Recent used in the widgets for highest rated).

Cheers,
Byron

Hi Mitch,
Glad you’re liking PhotoSmash!

Whether Anonymous users can rate or not is set by “allow anonymous ratings:” on the PhotoSmash Settings page in Admin (no gallery level control there).

Unfortunately, it doesn’t recalculate the rating until the user reloads the page.

As for the jQuery issue, PhotoSmash uses the standard wp_enqueue_script call to load jQuery. This brings in the standard jQuery package that is delivered with WordPress. Please make sure that the theme and no other plugins are bringing in their own versions of jQuery (using wp_enqueue_script to load the script will prevent multiple loads of the script which would cause issues). Not sure what else might be at issue here, but PhotoSmash seems to play well with lots of other plugins that use jQuery as well.

Cheers,
Byron

Sorry for missing this one…when you hover over a rating (before you click on one of the stars), it tells you something like 3.5(4 votes), which means: average of 3.5 stars on 4 votes.

Hope that helps.
