Rating System or Similar.

  • Hi,

    I read in the forums that a rating system (star or otherwise) was going to be available in version 5 of the plugin. I have purchased ACFPRo and can’t seem to find where it is located.

    Could someone please let me know if they have, and how, they have implemented this.

    Also, if anyone has any suggestion on how to create the same type of functionality, I would like to hear about it.

    I am making a menu for a restaurant and some of the menu items need to indicate the level of spiciness, 1 to 3, and the client would like it to display the rating as hot peppers.

    Any insight would be appreciated.

  • hi @Johnson

  • Thank you so much Navid.
    That is exactly what I was looking for.

  • I’m confused. I thought that ACF was adding this to their in the 5.0 update?

  • There is no plugin for adding ACF Rating Feild in ACF 5.x.
    Though the Feild shows up in 4.x they dont work properly.

    Therefore i tried to introduce my modify the ACF_Radio_Feild – radio.php in order to a Rating Feild. It displays as much stars as much as the number of choices.

    I would be glad if someone can extend it to a plugin to add a new ACF_Rating feild as i have no idea about introducing custom ACF Feilds.
    ______________________________________________________________________

    In radio.php i have introduced the following components

        //Introduced after decleration of $atts
        $atts2 = array(
           'id'    =>'star_hide_text',
           'for'   => $field['id'],
           'title' => $value,
        );
         //Introducing atts2 in the displaying feild.
         if( $i > 1 ) {           
                        $atts['id'] .= '-' . $value;
                        $atts2['for'] .= '-' . $value; 
                    }
         e .= '<input ' . acf_esc_attr( $atts ) . '/>' . '<label ' .  acf_esc_attr( $atts2 ) . '></label>';

    and then introducing the following CSS code in global.css

    ul.acf-radio-list.acf-hl{
        float: left; 
    }
    
    ul.acf-radio-list.acf-hl:not(:checked) > input {
        position:absolute;
        left:-9999px;
        clip:rect(0,0,0,0);
    }
    
    ul.acf-radio-list.acf-hl:not(:checked) > label {
        float:right;
        width:1em;
        padding:0 .1em;
        overflow:hidden;
        white-space:nowrap;
        cursor:pointer;
        font-size:200%;
        line-height:1.4;
        color:#ddd;
        text-shadow:1px 1px #bbb, 2px 2px #666, .1em .1em .2em rgba(0,0,0,.5);
    }
    
    ul.acf-radio-list.acf-hl:not(:checked) > label:before {
        content: '★  ';
        /*content: '\f005';*/
    }
    
    ul.acf-radio-list.acf-hl > input:checked ~ label {
        color: gold;
        text-shadow:1px 1px #c60, 2px 2px #940, .1em .1em .2em rgba(0,0,0,.5);
    }
    
    ul.acf-radio-list.acf-hl:not(:checked) > label:hover,
    ul.acf-radio-list.acf-hl:not(:checked) > label:hover ~ label {
        color: #f70;
        text-shadow:1px 1px goldenrod, 2px 2px #B57340, .1em .1em .2em rgba(0,0,0,.5);
    }
    
    ul.acf-radio-list.acf-hl > input:checked + label:hover,
    ul.acf-radio-list.acf-hl > input:checked + label:hover ~ label,
    ul.acf-radio-list.acf-hl > input:checked ~ label:hover,
    ul.acf-radio-list.acf-hl > input:checked ~ label:hover ~ label,
    ul.acf-radio-list.acf-hl > label:hover ~ input:checked ~ label {
        color: #ea0;
        text-shadow:1px 1px goldenrod, 2px 2px #B57340, .1em .1em .2em rgba(0,0,0,.5);
    }
    
    ul.acf-radio-list.acf-hl > label:active {
        position:relative;
        top:2px;
        left:2px;
    }

    My final radio.php is

    <?php

                    acf_update_field( $field );
                    
                }
                
            }       
            
            
            // return
            return $value;
        }
        
    }
    
    new acf_field_radio();
    
    endif;
    
    ?>
    

    To display the star format in front end use the following code

    
    function rating_display( $text ){
        $starfeild = '' ;
        if( ($star = get_field('css_rating') )){
    	$starfeild = $starfeild . '<abc class="rating_display">';  
                for ($x = 0; $x < $star ; $x++) {
                    $starfeild = $starfeild . '★ ';
                }
                $starfeild = $starfeild . '</abc>';
        }
        echo  $starfeild;
    }

    Add this to themes css for diplay of selected rating

    abc.rating_display {
        color: gold;
        text-shadow: 1px 1px #c60, 2px 2px #940, .1em .1em .2em rgba(0,0,0,.5);
        padding: 0 .1em;
        cursor: pointer;
        font-size: 150%;
        line-height: 1.4;
        padding-bottom: 15px;
        padding-left: 0px;
        display: block;
    }
