Requires some updating

This plugin uses FontAwesome 4.7. When I installed it on my website it showed the missing Unicode character where the empty stars were supposed to be. I use FontAwesome 5 so I disabled it to see if the two were conflicting — no luck.

I went into the plugin files and edited the lines that insert the FontAwesome markup (I don’t remember which ones but I’m sure the devs know where the offending files are) updating them to FontAwesome 5. I also commented out the lines that load FontAwesome because I already use FontAwesome. Now everything works as expected.

Took me about an hour. Slow, I know …

I’m on a standard LAMP stack as provided by Ubuntu’s tasksel command, Ubuntu 18.04 with Apache 2.4.29, MySQL 5.7.24 and PHP 7.2.10.

I didn’t experiment with loading FontAwesome 5 in the plugin because that would be loading it twice in my case however I imagine that will work just fine.

Other than that one minor issue everything is working as expected. Seems compatible with WP 5.0.2.
