Hi Eddy

This is what I posted in the general section:

"When they enter the password they can then vote. But my problem is when a vote is taken, the page then goes back to the password protected page and says password not valid.

How can I overcome this? I know it's code related - maybe a session - any help or ideas?"

Someone best sumed up what I want to do in your star rater section:
brassnugget wrote:Great extension, really useful - just a thought, would be even better ( for my purposes anyway) if placing a comment required a login ie only registered members can place a rating.
That's what I want to do. Do you know how to achieve this??

Any ideas?

Thanks for the hard work and invluable contributions

Hi Baconfries,

I posted this on the extensions suggestion thread but it is about star raters.

"Just found this open source star rater using jquery, it is called:

RateIt - a jQuery (star) rating plugin

Can be found at this website:

http://rateit.codeplex.com/

I've downloaded two .js files, a css file & related star images but unfortunately I do not know how to implement it in wysiwyg

This is a recently developed script that is billed as being easy to implement (they not meet me before)

The script is highly configurable & would be of great benefit to the community if someone could develop this into an extension.

Hopefully someone can pick up on this."

......................................................

Maybe better to let go the old rater & start again, anyone with experience in creating extensions will probably get this up & running in no time at all, it gives some amazing options as well.

As I have mentioned in the previous other topic I am not taking over Eddys extensions...I am only trying to help were help can be given. I have taken a look at the Rateit script and it uses jQuery 1.4.3 at prescnt all WB jQuery and the majority of user made extension use jQuery 1.4.2 making them uncompatible with the Rateit script, so using with a extension/object that uses 1.4.2 will cause conflicts it would mean all WB jQuery objects/extension be updated to work with one script....

Aaaahhh, ok, I didn't realise there would be backward compatibility issues with the jquery script. I just thought I could upgrade & there would be no problem with existing scripts.

It may be a blessing I am not a developer :!:

Does anyone know how often jquery gets updated in web builder?

I cant say, but we will probably have to wait till the next major upgrade/update as WB has been using jQuery 1.4.2 since WB 7 was released last year but we can rely on Pablo if it is needed then it will be on the ro do list of improvments...

Eddy the builder of the "Extension", is no longer a active member due to other comitments away from WB, so you will not recieve a anwser to your post from him.... looking at the source of the PHP it is possible for you to manually modify it and adding a height and width to the code to suit your requirements...

You can either do it one of two ways either in a HTML Editor such a Notepad++ or you can modify through your cpanel once you have uploaded to your host server, before that we need to first install the extension on the page that you require it on, now save this...first way to modify is to browse to were you have saved to, look for the PHP file name rater.php open in Notepad++ and look for line 125 it should look like the code below once you have saved you can then upload...the second way is to upload all the files to your server ythe make the same changes through cpanel as described below..

Before
echo '<input type="submit" name="rate'.$rater_id.'" value="rate" style="font-size:12px;color:#FFFFFF;border: 2px solid #000000;background: #FFF000;font-family:Verdana" />';
After

Code: Select all

echo '<input type="submit" name="rate'.$rater_id.'" value="rate" style="font-size:12px;color:#FFFFFF;border: 2px solid #000000;background: #FFF000;font-family:Verdana";[color=#FF0000]width:56px;height:25px[/color]/>';
