GD Star Rating 0.9.8 Beta 4

datePosted on 01:02, October 14th, 2008 by Millan

Another day and the next release is ready. New in this version is introduction of import data panel where you can find tabs for importing recorded data from other rating plugins. This version has import from Post Star Rating plugin, and the next will have import from WP-PostRatings. I have tested the import, and it should be working ok, but again it’s possible that some bugs are still there, because I have tested this only with last official plugin version. Import is designed to imoprt data only once, but there is a reset button for all imports. I will add test that will determine if the plugin is already used, but that’s for the next version.

Also, there are new trend icons added from FamFamFam and Crystal icon sets. Setup page is expanded and now contains descriptions for each function. Few bugs are fixed, most important is very nasty bug with trend display in the widget.

If everything goes OK, by the end of the week, last pre-1.0.0 version will be released, some sort of Release Candidate. It will have redesigned StarRater shortcode, unified ratings rendering and few onther improvements. And then, 1.0.0 is just days away.

    Sorry, I forgot to check if generated HTML is valid. I will fix that for the next version.

    Your plug-in doesn’t set the right permission for the files when update on 755 on linux platform. This means to update the file manually. pls, can you fix this?

    Plugin has nothing to do with update or setting permisions. WordPress is responsible for all updates through plugin page.

    Hello,
    thanks again for your great work.
    I found an error in the vote stats page in the gd-star-rating administration page:
    “vistiors”=visitors
