Hello,
Is this plugin compatible with Yoast SEO Premium?
Hello! We haven’t tested the Stellar plugin with Yoast SEO Premium, so we can’t say for certain. However, we believe there shouldn’t be any conflict between them. If you do encounter any issues, feel free to reach out, we’ll do our best to assist you.
Hello,
How can I display like on your demo page? I’m using the Bridge theme.
https://preview.codecanyon.net/item/stellar-star-rating-plugin-for-wordpress/full_screen_preview/25336975Thanks.
Hello! Could you specify what exactly you had difficulties with when trying to reproduce the result as shown in the demo? You can select the desired display layout in the General>Layout.
Could you send me a e-mail address please, i want to send a screen shot.
In the demo it scroll up and down within a frame.
In my theme, it stays blocked to the right and left depending on the layout option.
The floating sidebar is part of the theme’s functionality, not the Stellar plugin. The Stellar rating was added to it using a shortcode. If you have additional questions, you can contact us via help@merkulov.design
I downloaded this plugin from Envato, but unfortunately after installing and activating the site it becomes slow and when I check with the Query Monitor plugin there are a lot of duplicate queries. Is it possible to check this?
Hello! Please contact us via help@merkulov.design and provide screenshots of your Query Monitor check to investigate the issue.
Hello, your Stellar plugin is blocking uploads of file types like SVG and WebP, while the booking plugin displays the date and time. Are there any concerns regarding these settings?
Hello! The Stellar plugin has a function that allows the uploading of non-standard file types but does not block them. If you believe the issue is related to our plugin, please provide more details about this(error message, some results of checks or analysis, etc). Which booking plugin are you using? If it is a paid plugin, we won’t be able to check its compatibility on our side. In this case, you can provide us with your staging copy admin access via help@merkulov.design to consider the issue.
Hi, is it compatible with bbpress and buddypress?
Hello! The rating can be added to different places on the page using a shortcode but will count the votes of a specific page and not separate elements of it. I guess this is not what you expect to get on a forum.
Hello. Is it possible for the users to add comments with every star note?
Hello! No, the Stellar plugin allows adding a rating without a comment.
Pre-sale question. I would like to use this plugin as a some sort of google review manager. For example if a customer gives 4 or 5 stars, I would ask them to leave a google review. But If they give lower rating I would like to direct them to feedback form on my website. Is that possible with this plugin?
Hello! The Steller plugin allows the addition of schema markup to get rich snippet results in Google searches. The scenario you described is not provided in the plugin.
pre-sales questions: Can it be used with any custom post type (created with ACF or Metabox)? Can it be set so that only logged in users can vote? Can it be solved so that only one vote for an article can be submitted from a user account?
Hello! The Stellar can be used with different post types. You can display the ratings (and therefore the ability to vote) only to certain user roles via the settings. The limit on the number of votes per page can only be set by IP, there is no functionality associated with the user account.
Hello, thanks for your answers. Is the IP restriction cookie based?
No, this is checked through the database
Don’t you plan make developing that only one vote for an article can be submitted from a user account? You can store post ID and userID in the database, like IP address
For now, we do not plan to add such functionality as it cannot be applied to all membership plugins and requires an individual approach.
We can consider this as a custom service taking into account your requirements. Please contact us via help@merkulov.design for details if you are interested.
Hello, it’s possible to retrieve the value from user’s vote and send it to another plugin? i’m using a external api plugin in a page with wpforms, so when the user sends an e-mail via that form the external api plugin post it in another database too, i wonder if it’s possible to use this plugin with it.
Hello! This feature is not provided in the plugin but can be considered as a custom service. If you are interested, please contact us via help@merkulov.design and describe your case in detail.
Is it compatible with BrickBuilder and ACF (CPT)? It says somewhere that it doesn’t work as expected.
Hello! Stellar is a standalone plugin and can work with different page builders. We have not tested the plugin with the BrickBuilder but even if there are problems with the preset rating display positions(because of the content construction specification in the builder), you can use the shortcode to add it anywhere on the page.
The Stellar supports custom post types.
“It says somewhere that it doesn’t work as expected.” – please specify what you expect
Hi! Presale question!
Does Stellar or any of your other plugins pull in Google rating’s and reviews?
I own HandymanRating.com and want to allow my handyman users on my site to pull in their ratings and reviews so potential customers can see their ratings and potentially book their services. Does Stellar or any other plugin you offer have this feature?
If not, can you possibly point me to a plugin that you may know of that does offer this feature?
Thank you! Winners!
Hello! The Stellar plugin adds schema markup to the HTML code, allowing you to display page rating data in Google search results. You can also customize the schema markup to suit your needs.
how to show rating on elementor post list ? or do i need to custom or modified it ? thanks
Hello! The Stellar plugin provides display on single pages/posts. It is not displayed on archive pages or in Elementor widgets as this requires individual modification of the archive page template or widget.
hello, is it possible to have a customer of a product make one review per sale only (woo)?
Hello! Unfortunately, the plugin does not include such a feature. Voting can only be limited by IP. It can also be restricted to registered users only.
thank you
Are there plans to implement a feature that allows reviewers to rate only once by verifying their emails?
Thank you for this plugin, its looking great on the website now: https://forextabs.com/forex-brokers/vt-markets-best-forex-broker-review-in-the-market/Hello! There are currently no plans to add such a feature. As an alternative, you can allow voting to registered users only using the Assignments tab settings https://take.ms/2tdvA and restrict by IP in Results tab https://take.ms/vlHQR
Also, please update the plugin to the latest version.
I bought this plugin, I think it is very good, but the Google search results still do not show the rating, is this related to the plugin or is it related to google’s judgment on the content of the website?
Hello! The plugin adds the necessary markup for the possibility to display the rating in Google search result, but can not guarantee this since only Google algorithms determine whether review snippet will be displayed or not. Your site content must follow with a number of rules to be eligible to appear as a rich result. More detailed information is in the Google documentation https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/structured-data/review-snippet#guidelines
Hi, I purchased this plugin and for the life of me I can’t seem to find the shortcode generator (assuming it has one) or it’s display anywhere. I switched to shortcode in general tab and hit save but nothing new in general. I’ve looked in the shortcode left menu tab (thats for top ten) and can’t find it there either.. Does it show up in the general tab near the position options? I have it working on a custom post type simply by adding [stellar] in the description text box. Just wondering if there is a shortcode generator.
Hello! The Stellar plugin does not include a shortcode generator since a universal [stellar] shortcode is applied to display the rating. You can use additional shortcode options to get top rated posts or other values, please follow the guide https://docs.merkulov.design/setting-a-star-rating-for-wordpress-pages/#Shortcode
Thank you.
Hello, hope you’re well!
Recently, I purchased your Stellar Star Rating plugin for my website. But I didn’t find any blocks or any options to set a star rating on the sidebar like your demo page has: https://imgur.com/a/ySIzVhH So how do I set it?
Hello! To add a star rating system to your website’s sidebar, you’ll typically need to follow these steps:
1. Install the Stellar Star Rating plugin: Make sure you have installed the Stellar Star Rating plugin on your website.
2. Configure the plugin settings: Look for an Position option in the plugin settings that allows you to choose the placement of the star rating system as shortcode https://take.ms/YcHjX
3. Select the sidebar placement: Navigate to the Appearence->Widgets. Select Shortcode widget https://take.ms/4ZZ2A place it in one of your theme sidebar and instert [stellar] shortcode https://take.ms/fuLAJ
4. Customize the appearance: Customize the widget display style in the plugin settings: the size, color, or style of the star ratings to match your website’s design.
5. Save and preview: After configuring the settings and customizing the appearance, save your changes. Then, go to your website and navigate to a page with a sidebar. The star rating system should now be visible in the sidebar.
If you’re facing difficulties or the Stellar Star Rating plugin doesn’t provide specific sidebar placement options, I recommend consulting the plugin’s documentation or reaching out to the plugin’s support team https://bit.ly/lovely-support for further assistance. They should be able to provide you with more detailed instructions based on the specific plugin you are using.
Ok, thanks! I’ve added the Stellar Rating plugin to my sidebar successfully! But would you like to help me with which customization and settings that I need to add on my site like for a background color or total style that you’re using on your following sidebar? I need the same style.
Sure! https://take.ms/BXCC8
Ok, please send me other setting screenshots inluding Layout style, Results Display Settings, If any Custom CSS etc.
We can make fine tune directly on your website as custom service. Let me know if you are interest and i will send you an invoice.
Ok, how much for that?
And I think it shouldn’t be an additional service or require customers to purchase anything else again just for the main function of a plugin! I mean the plugin you are selling shows by your preview page, you have to have documentation for how a function showing on your preview page or you need to offer free support for it, and I have supported as well. So what do you think now?
Kindly refer to the support policy, which encompasses all the information regarding the author’s obligations towards customers and will address any inquiries you may have about what author should provide https://codecanyon.net/page/item_support_policy
Additionally, please take a look at the articles that provide detailed descriptions of the settings and features offered by this plugin https://docs.merkulov.design/category/stellar
If you need a plugin setup custom service please create a ticket with a link to your site and the theme you are using https://bit.ly/lovely-support
Don’t try to mislead me! I’ve checked all the different pages linked to your docs as I said earlier: https://docs.merkulov.design/category/stellar , but there is no a single documentation about the Sidebar Stellar Rating Function, but my point is you’re showing it on your preview page, without having a guide for how to set up a star rating on the sidebar https://imgur.com/a/ySIzVhH , that’s it. I’m looking for a complete guide and page link where you described that.
Sorry, but I’m losing the thread of this conversation. The link that I provided you has absolutely all the information on how to set up every little thing, including the plugin shortcode anywhere (for example, in the sidebar). What specific setting can you not find information about in the documentation?
Exactly the same style you’re using on your preview page, this documentation https://imgur.com/a/ySIzVhH
It’s clear. I will add a task to our TODO list for writing and adding the article titled “Step-by-step guide for reproducing the style of the demo shortcode” to the existing documentation. Thank you for bringing this to your attention. Please inform me if you would like me to contact you once the article is complete.
Ok thanks! You can then send me a reply on here.
Hey, any progress on there?
Hello! If you still have some style issues please contact us via help@merkulov.design, provide your direct page link with Stellar and specify your problem.
Hi, I look for a good Rating & Review plugin to recommend? Similar to Trustpilot…
You must be able to give a rating (rating) for 3-4 categories such as Taste, Smell etc… as well as leave a short review.
It should also be possible to set so that only members can provide this information to avoid spam.
If it is possible to put it as a popup in elements or similar would be great.
Is this something you have?
Hello! The Stellar plugin is designed to vote on single pages without using different categories and without a review option. The popup is not provided. You can restrict the voting option to registered users only.
How to check how many people rate on wp dashboard?
Hello! You can enable Rating/Votes in Stellar>Results>Results in the admin area to display the number of voters per page/post in the page list or dashboard https://take.ms/tXEXg
Hello! I’m looking for my review website. Made on review for the author of the post and looking for this pluggin for activitity on the comments/reply. My question is about the working with Buddypress. Is it possible to make this item visible on the reaction form. And question 2, also visible in the Buddypress Activity?
Hello! Unfortunately we have not tested this plugin with Buddypress and I can not say anything specific about its compatibility. The rating can be added to different places on the page using a shortcode but will count the votes of a specific page and not separate elements of it.
