Google rating not working

Might be a theme/plugin conflict, does it work on the default theme without any plugins activated in the first place?

I used default theme and disabled all plugins and had one error ( another error ).

Then i activated all plugins with the default theme and had the same error.

Then i put my current theme but unmodified and had the same error.

The problem isn’t my plugins or the theme i’m using unmodified.

I compared this with my modified theme. If i use this code <?php if(function_exists('the_ratings')) { the_ratings(); } ?> two times on the same page ( one at after the title and one in the comment section so people can write a review and rate it, i get this error:

Only one overall score should be marked.

If I use this code <?php echo the_ratings_results( $POST_ID ); ?> after the title and this code <?php if(function_exists('the_ratings')) { the_ratings(); } ?> in the comment section i get this error:

No element specified for the evaluation ( it’s my current theme ).

If i just use this code one time on my page <?php if(function_exists('the_ratings')) { the_ratings(); } ?> after the title and no other wp-postratings codes in the page, i get the same error as default WordPress theme with no plugin enabled,

Please enter a value for the url field

How to use use this code <?php echo the_ratings_results( $POST_ID ); ?> after the title and this code <?php if(function_exists('the_ratings')) { the_ratings(); } ?> in the comment section and getting no error?

Thank you.

For the second screenshot, the Logo URL error is expected, please read https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/wp-postratings/#faq. It can be solved.

It is not designed to be used twice within a post. I would recommend just use <?php if(function_exists('the_ratings')) { the_ratings(); } ?>

In my current Template i’m using <?php echo the_ratings_results( $POST_ID ); ?> to show ratings and <?php if(function_exists('the_ratings')) { the_ratings(); } ?> to allow users to rate in the comment section.

I added the logo for Google rich snippets.

I still get two errors:

Is it possible to fix this?

Thank you.

My advice is is to use just one code which is <?php echo the_ratings_results( $POST_ID ); ?>. It is possible to use both, but it might screw up some HTML structure and hence the error. You might want to hire a developer for it as it is not within my support scope.
