I'm currently evaluating several CMS packages and I really like WebGUI...but I have a mandatory requirement that the package must support "star rating" (i.e. the ability to rate a comment from 1-5, using stars instead of radio-buttons). I can't find anything on the WebGUI site that addresses this. Is it not there? Also, I wanted to know more about the forum functionality - couldn't find it by searching for it. Where do I go? Thanks for any help! --- (Edited on 2/17/2010 11:22 am [GMT-0600] by daveday33) --- |

WebGUI has a distinction between comments and forum postings. Comments are what you see on the HelpDesk (see http://www.webgui.org/bugs) for an example of comments. They have a 5-level rating system. Forum postings have a 2-level rating system, which you can see with the thumbs-up/thumbs-down at the bottom right of ever post in a thread in the forum. Ratings accumulate in the thread, so 3 + posts and 1 - post gives the thread a total rating of +2. And this is definitely the right place to ask questions. You can also contact Tavis Parker at plainblack for a webinar session, which is some one on one time with a walk through of features and a Q&A time. The forums also have some userDefined fields that can be used for a variety of purposes, including rating a post. They wouldn't accumulate on a per post or per thread basis, though. --- (Edited on 2/17/2010 9:52 am [GMT-0800] by perlDreamer) --- |

https://www.thegamecrafter.com/forums/reviews <- is this something along the lines of what you're looking for? Each review allows a star rating. It would be trivial to allow replies to the review to also allow star ratings. This reviews section is just a template over the forum system. --- (Edited on 2/17/2010 12:42 pm [GMT-0600] by preaction) --- |

You could also check http://www.klettern-md.de/home/klettern/buecher. Weuse userDefined fields to add ratings to forum posts. Stars are drawn by a home-made macro. Ratings are made via a form field. However, that is only a templating issue. You should be able to replace that with a true star rating bar if you are familiar with Javascript. I remember that there was a very good code example on the web, but I do not have the link at hand. --- (Edited on 2/18/2010 3:50 pm [GMT-0600] by bernd) --- |
