Sorry for bad english (machine translation from russian).
Loved your comment system for the site. Thanks for the great job!
I wanted to clarify the possibility of displaying a star rating on another page of the site.
I have already read the description of the output of the star rating (in this forum), but here the description for Commentics v2.4, and in Commentics v3.3 everything is completely different. I am not strong in PHP, so I will be very grateful if you tell me how to implement it. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi there,

I suggest using the free Extractor module.

It'd be similar to this:

PHP Code:

<?php 

$cmtx_folder = 'upload'; // the name of your Commentics folder



require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/extractor.php');



$extractor = new extractor($cmtx_folder);



if ($extractor->isConnected()) {

$rating = $extractor->pageRating('1'); // $cmtx_identifier, change this to your page identifier



/*

if ($rating == 1) {

// show one full star

} else if ($rating == 2) {

// show two full stars etc

}

*/

}

Thank you very much, Steven, for your prompt reply!

The extractor module is a great solution. I just recently started using Commentics, so I didn’t know about it. I figured out the standard operation of the extractor module, but did not understand how to output stars. What output code to use and where to get it? Example below:

PHP Code:

<?php 

if ($rating == 1) {

// show one full star - What code to use for the output of stars?

} else if ($rating == 2) {

// show two full stars etc - What code to use for the output of stars?

}

PHP Code:

<?php

                $cmtx_folder = 'upload'; // the name of your Commentics folder

                require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/extractor.php');

                $extractor = new extractor($cmtx_folder);

                if ($extractor->isConnected()) {

                    $rating = $extractor->pageRating('1'); // $cmtx_identifier, change this to your page identifier

                            

                    if ($rating == 0) {

                        echo '<img src="/img/0_star.png" width="102" height="20" title="Нет оценки" alt="Нет оценки">';

                    } else if ($rating == 1) {

                        echo '<img src="/img/1_star.png" width="102" height="20" title="Ужасно" alt="1 звезда">';

                    } else if ($rating == 2) {

                        echo '<img src="/img/2_star.png" width="102" height="20" title="Плохо" alt="2 звезды">';

                    } else if ($rating == 3) {                                

                        echo '<img src="/img/3_star.png" width="102" height="20" title="Средний" alt="3 звезды">';                                    

                    } else if ($rating == 4) {

                        echo '<img src="/img/4_star.png" width="102" height="20" title="Хорошо" alt="4 звезды">';

                    } else if ($rating == 5) {

                        echo '<img src="/img/5_star.png" width="102" height="20" title="Отлично" alt="5 звезд">';

                    }

                                                    

                } 

            ?>

Sorry for the late reply.

Firstly you want to include Font Awesome if you haven't already:

Code:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">

Then this is to output the stars:

PHP Code:

<?php 

for ($i = 0; $i < 5; $i++) {

   if ($i < $rating) {

       echo '<span class="cmtx_star cmtx_star_full"></span>';

   } else {

       echo '<span class="cmtx_star cmtx_star_empty"></span>';

   }

}

Great decision, Steven! Everything works. Thank you! Another small question: how can I add to the conclusion of the title (0 stars - no ratings, 1 star - Terrible, 2 stars - Bad, 3 stars - Average, 4 stars - Good, 5 stars - Excellent)?

I was a little hasty with the question. I think there is no need to output title. Thanks again for your help, Steven!
