1. Hi,

   Thanks for the plugin!

   I’m using WordPress 2.0.1.

   If set a review as:
   sterne(13,3,255,255,0)

   I get 1 and a half stars displayed, but none of the remaining 11 stars are displayed.

   Odd?

   Hallo,

   Dank für das steckbare!

   Ich verwende WordPress 2.0.1.

   Wenn Sie einem Bericht wie eingestellt werden:

   sterne (13.3.255.255.0)

   Ich erhalte 1 und eine Hälfte Sterne angezeigt, aber keine der restlichen 11 Sterne werden angezeigt.

   Ungerade?

2. Hi,
   you should exchange your first two numbers. First is your rating, second one is total Points. Since 2 points make up a star, this should be an even number.
   Try: sterne(3,13,255,255,0)

3. Hi
   I like your plugin.
   How would I go about getting WordPress to recognise your plugin if I type Stern(6,g) in another field – for example a new metafield, or in post_title?
   Thanks

4. Hi Philip,

   That’s actually quite easy, but you will have to edit the plugin file. At the very end you will see the line:

   
add_filter('the_content', 'CheckForStar');
add_filter('the_content', 'CheckForStarXL');


   The first argument ist the type of field you want to replace, in this case the main post content. To add Sterne to the title (like in this post) for example, add the following lines:
   
add_filter('the_title', 'CheckForStar');
add_filter('the_title', 'CheckForStarXL');


   Here you can find (a little down the page, section “Current hooks for filters” all possible replacements.
   Cheers,
   Daniel

5. Thanks Daniel
   I’m learning all the time!
   I started off thinking that I need the Sterne rating in a separate field entirely (I’ve been experimenting, without success, with new custom fields), but maybe it works just fine just putting it in the_title.

6. Me again
   Thanks for your response. I tweaked the plugin file and it worked just fine.
   Of course, now I need to go back and work out how to fix the css, because the result looks horrible!

   Never mind.

7. Yep, must be the CSS, since this doesnt happen here. Check definitions for post-title and the ‘a’ tag.
