How to add the rating widget to posts on the blog front page

The answer must be something like:

<?php rw_get_post_rating($post->ID, ‘blog-post’, false); ?>

Hi @alanp57, it should be active out of the box (also make sure the excerpts checkbox is selected). If it doesn’t work, make sure your theme is using the_content() method to show the post’s content. There’s no need to explicitly add our php shortcode. But if you do want to explicitly do it, try this:
<?php rw_the_post_rating($post->ID); ?>

Please let me know if it worked.

Ok thanks vovafeldman. In our case we need to use rw_get_post_rating because the output must first go to a butter rather than to the screen.

A follow up question, our theme displays multiple posts in a grid and this is interfering with the display of the like and dislike bubbles that appear over the thumbs. They only appear over the top left post no matter which post the mouse is over. The URL is https://shoespost.com/. For now, is there a way to disable the display of the bubbles? And we would be interested getting them to appear over the correct post. Thanks.

That’s very interesting bug. Yes, there’s a way to turn it off, but if you don’t mind keeping it for additional several days so we can resolve it that would be the best. Otherwise it would be impossible to re-create the bug. O.k?

Ok, we will leave it for you to debug. Thanks

Hello, I can not get either to display Rating-Widget in home page and categories. But I have checked the boxes in the plugin administration. I tried to built <?php rw_the_post_rating($post->ID); ?> in my index.php but it appears in the sidebar file ..

Thank’s for support

@gwenm you need to add <?php rw_the_post_rating($post->ID); ?> in your front page template file, not index.php

Ok, thank you ??

I want my blog readers to vote on the entire blog, not on specific posts, with the voting widget and the resulting star rating apparent somewhere in my sidebar. How to?
