Question about Community Rating

Post by NightFlyer »

Hello there,
I was wondering how "Community Rating" is working or if I have misconfigured something:
For my movie reviews I'm using the IMDB integration but something is wrong.

Have a look at my Zombieland review for example http://nerdzone-blog.de/index.php?/arch ... eland.html

My score for this Film ist 9.5 but to get 9.5 Stars from the rating plugin I have to enter 19 as a rating. When I'm entering 9.5 as Rating I've got only 4 Stars. So it seems that every point is worth 0.5 stars.
But the sidebar shows now "Zombieland (19)". I'm a bit confused. ;)

Thanks for your input.

Hi!

The rating was built with full numbers in mind. You should try it with steps from 0 to 100 or 0 to 10 in full increments instead.

Ah, ok I see.
Another question: Is it possible to increase the number of diplayed films in the sidebar?
I haven't found an option for this.

The sidebar plugin currently is hardcoded to 5. You'd need to edit the serendipity_plugin_communityrating plugin and replace "LIMIT 5" with the number you want...
