Rating Images not showing up

[tobisagt]

thx hollywood,

i modified your code a bit. I think this makes more sense!

Code Select Expand

if ($this->rating->rating < "0.25"){
echo '<div class="rating "zero"></div>';
}

if ($this->rating->rating >= "0.25" & $this->rating->rating < "0.75"){
echo '<div class="rating zerofive"></div>';
}

if ($this->rating->rating >= "0.75" & $this->rating->rating < "1.25"){
echo '<div class="rating one"></div>';
}

if ($this->rating->rating >= "1.25" & $this->rating->rating < "1.75"){
echo '<div class="rating onefive"></div>';
}

if ($this->rating->rating >= "1.75" & $this->rating->rating < "2.25"){
echo '<div class="rating two"></div>';
}

if ($this->rating->rating >= "2.25" & $this->rating->rating < "2.75"){
echo '<div class="rating twofive"></div>';
}

if ($this->rating->rating >= "2.75" & $this->rating->rating < "3.25"){
echo '<div class="rating three"></div>';
}

if ($this->rating->rating >= "3.25" & $this->rating->rating < "3.75"){
echo '<div class="rating threefive"></div>';
}

if ($this->rating->rating >= "3.75" & $this->rating->rating < "4.25"){
echo '<div class="rating four"></div>';
}

if ($this->rating->rating >= "4.25" & $this->rating->rating < "4.75"){
echo '<div class="rating fourfive"></div>';
}

if ($this->rating->rating >= "4.75" & $this->rating->rating <= "5"){
echo '<div class="rating five"></div>';
}

I've made my own stars images which shows half stars also.
Your solution works only if there a "full number" vote, if you know what i mean. If there is a 2 stars and 3 stars vote, it should show 2,5 stars.

I uploaded my stars jpg too, if someone want to use it.


EDIT: I updated to Joomla 2.5 and VM 2.0.2. All works fine now!

Problem solved.

it was a big bug...


this lines missing from components>com_virtuemart>views>category>view.html.php file:

find:

Code Select Expand

$ratingModel = VmModel::getModel('ratings');
$showRating = $ratingModel->showRating();
$this->assignRef('showRating', $showRating);

replace:

Code Select Expand

$ratingModel = VmModel::getModel('ratings');
$showRating = $ratingModel->showRating();
$this->assignRef('showRating', $showRating);

// added lines from  components>com_virtuemart>views>productdetails>view.html.php
$rating = $ratingModel->getRatingByProduct($product->virtuemart_product_id);
$this->assignRef('rating', $rating);

Add this lines where you want to diplay stars: components>com_virtuemart>views>category>tmpl>default.php

Code Select Expand

<?php

Hi Electricity...

Couldn't you add the extra if statements for the extra ratings or change it as you need?  Maybe I am unclear on what you are suggesting.

Glad I could at least get the ball rolling on this problem.  Nice work vapro...

[sandstorm]

Ive now upgraded to J2.5.1, VM 2.02 and still this problem persists. I have tried with default templates, both Joomla and virtuemart.

Can anyone on the VM dev team comment if this is a bug or not?

I will look at Vapro's fix, but worried that this will be overwritten when another upgrade comes out ?

I only just notice after reading VAPRO's comments.
I cant get my ratings to show in details page.

The modified code in VAPRO's post is for category view

[sandstorm]

problem persists? 
Anybody else see this in there sites? or have any advice for me

[hollywooood]

Hey tobisagt, what does your css look like for this?  I just migrated to 2.5 and 2.0.2 and need to add this in...

thanks for any help on that...

[fexnok]

Where can I find those images? I have just downloaded virtuemart 2.0.2 and I couldn't find them.

Thanks

[jenkinhill]

The image is in joomla_root/components/com_virtuemart/assets/images/color-stars.png

Display of the review rating image is dependant on the Joomla template and that templates's css. The attached is the display in one of the Linelab templates.

Somethings are waay more easier than we make them out to be...

For those who don't know on this and are making a custom template here is what you may need to do if you are using your own css.

Make sure you copy & paste these lines in your style sheet from virtuemart-ltr.css:

Code Select Expand

.ratingbox {
position:relative;
display:block;
width:120px;
height:24px;
background:url("pathto/images/color-stars.png") repeat-x scroll 0 bottom transparent;
}
.ratingbox span {
background:url(pathto/images/color-stars.png) repeat-x;
display:block;
width:1%;
height:24px;
position:absolute;
}
.stars-orange{background-position:0 0 !important;}
.stars-red{background-position:0 -54px !important;}
.stars-green{background-position:0 -108px !important; }
.stars-blue{background-position:0 -162px !important;}
.stars-purple{background-position:0 -216px !important;}

You will need this somewhere in your productdetails default.php page:

Code Select Expand

<?php
if ($this->showRating) {
    $maxrating = VmConfig::get('vm_maximum_rating_scale',5);

if (empty($this->rating)) { ?>
<span class="vote"><?php echo JText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_RATING').' '.JText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_UNRATED') ?></span>
<?php } else {
$ratingwidth = ( $this->rating->rating * 100 ) / $maxrating;//I don't use round as percetntage with works perfect, as for me
?>
<span class="vote">
<?php echo JText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_RATING').' '.round($this->rating->rating, 2) . '/'. $maxrating; ?><br/>
<span title=" <?php echo (JText::_("COM_VIRTUEMART_RATING_TITLE") . $this->rating->rating . '/' . $maxrating) ?>" class="vmicon ratingbox" style="display:inline-block;">
<span class="stars-orange" style="width:<?php echo $ratingwidth;?>%">
</span>
</span>
</span>
<?php
}
}
?>

You'll notice that it not only takes care of the rated image, it will also handle the JS review and ratings display..

it really is that easy...the main thing was that I missed the css for this and that is what really gave me a headache...I was overthinking it way too much.

This is great guys but... what about to hide rating if the product has not been review?

[DaggaTora]

I just delete <span class="vote"><?php echo JText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_RATING').' '.JText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_UNRATED') ?> hope it works! 

[Sonictech]

I just delete <span class="vote"><?php echo JText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_RATING').' '.JText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_UNRATED') ?> hope it works! 

Where you able to solve this, did this work by deleting  line you listed above?  I have followed the instructions so far and I see the ratings in the category area but the only issue it shows the same rating on all products even if they have not been rated yet.  I tried removing the line above but it did not work, any other idea?

Thanks for any help!

[DaggaTora]

This is what i did to have stars when someone voted and to shows nothing when nobody has vote:

Code Select Expand

<?php
if ($this->showRating) {
    $maxrating = VmConfig::get('vm_maximum_rating_scale',5);

if (empty($this->rating)) { ?>
<span class="vote" style="display:none"><?php echo JText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_RATING').' '.JText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_UNRATED') ?></span>

<?php } else {
$ratingwidth = ( $this->rating->rating * 100 ) / $maxrating;//I don't use round as percetntage with works perfect, as for me
?>
<span class="vote">
<!--<?php echo JText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_RATING').' '.round($this->rating->rating, 2) . '/'. $maxrating; ?><br/>-->
<span title=" <?php echo (JText::_("COM_VIRTUEMART_RATING_TITLE") . $this->rating->rating . '/' . $maxrating) ?>" class="ratingbox" style="display:inline-block;">
<span class="stars-orange" style="width:<?php echo $ratingwidth;?>%">
</span>
</span>
</span>
<?php
}
}
?>

Hope it helps!

I put the code in the category/default.php and have added a couple of stars to a product, no luck.  I then put back the original code and I see the stars but none of them are gold color, any idea?

Thanks,
Shawn
