Widgets and Shortcodes
For easy integration into WordPress, the plugin provides many widgets and shortcodes.
Widgets
There are a lot of widgets included, with each rating method having two widgets. You can display active rating blocks in the sidebar. Each rating method has own rating block widget. You can use default styling, or you can configure styling for the widget, set the rating item to rate and more.
To display rating results lists, the plugin includes rating lists widgets for each rating method. You can control styling for the rating elements (depending on the rating method), filtering of data for display and more.
All widgets share the same interface, with the most differences coming to the display tab depending on the rating method and difference between single rating and a rating list.
