Post Metas Updates these meta valuate when rating posts:

• rateStarReview_rating = average rating normalized as value between 0 and 1 (multiply with maximum to display)
• rateStarReview_ratingNumber = number of reviews
• rateStarReview_ratingPoints = sum of normalized ratings for easy sorting popular items (rating * ratingPoints) Rating by category will update those for each rated category as:
• rateStarReview_rating_category$id
• rateStarReview_ratingNumber_category$id
• rateStarReview_ratingPoints_category$id

How to use this? In example, if you have a post presenting an electronic product and want site members to be able to review and rate separately different aspects like Features and Performance these can be content types. A review form for each content type can be setup: [videowhisper_review content_type="Features" post_id="1"] [videowhisper_review content_type="Performance" post_id="1"] Then to show all reviews for that item, you can use [videowhisper_reviews post_id="1"] . Another example, if an article is about a book with 2 parts, you can also use content_id to allow users to post a review for each part for each aspect (like Utility, Clarity). [videowhisper_review content_type="Utility for Part" content_id="1" post_id="1"] [videowhisper_review content_type="Utility for Part" content_id="2" post_id="1"] [videowhisper_review content_type="Clarity for Part" content_id="1" post_id="1"] [videowhisper_review content_type="Clarity for Part" content_id="2" post_id="1"] Then list all reviews for all parts, [videowhisper_reviews post_id="1"] or just for an aspect or part.
