Comment Rating Widget Faq
Nov 11th, 2009 by BoB
Do I need both Get Recent Comment and Comment Rating Widget plugins?
No you don’t. You only need to have Comment Rating Widget activated. If you keep both plugin activated, there will be a conflict.
In fact, if you had Get Recent Comment installed before, you need to click the “Reset template to default” to get the Comment Rating Widget template.
I cannot see the Comment Rating images/votes on my sidebar.
Please check the Comment Rating Widget option page, the default template should look like the following.
<li><a href=”%comment_link” title=”%post_title, %post_date”>%comment_author</a>: %comment_excerpt %comment_rating</li>
If not, please click the “Reset template to default” to get the Comment Rating Widget template.
How do I control the displayed image and rating in the widget?
The comment rating and images on display can be “Likes only”, “Dislikes only”, or Both. This is customizable by the “Value for comment_karma” option in Comment Rating (under Advanced Option).
I made the change to the Comment Rating “Value for comment_karma”, but there’s no change on the sidebar.
The plugin comes with an internal cache to reduce performance impact on page loading. You have to clean the cache by clicking on Comment Rating Widget option “Update recent comment options” at the bottom.
If the Comment Rating plugin is not installed, will this widget still work?
Yes, this plug in will function exactly as “Get Recent Comment”.
Is there any way to display comments on another Wordpress page?
Like a link “Most voted comments” And when peolple click on the link, the can see all the comments with majority of votes.

Not yet. I’m planning to add a shortcode which can be inserted into a post to display comments based on rating.
