ACF: Star Rating Field

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

Reviewers like the idea of a rating field inside ACF and find it quick to set up, though several ask for things it doesn't do yet, like resetting votes, average results and rich snippets, and a few say the docs left them stuck or unsure about newer ACF versions.

   Hey, The plugin is almost perfect! The only thing that is missing is a function that returns the average voting results. Can you add it please? 😀 Thank you! Cheers mi amigo!

   It is a very useful plugin – really a good idea to have integrate such rating as ACF field.. Nevertheless it would be nice to can reset votes. Or maybe did I miss something ?

   I think this is a great concept, but pretty useless for my application. Easy enough for the developer to fix though…. All I want is an easy to use interface for creating star ratings. For my use only (admin/editor). Example: Review Ratings. Overall Rating: ****** Comfort: ***** Style: ***** Price: ***** Only needs to be interactive for an admin or editor that is drafting the review. Not the site visitors. This add-on installed easy and looks easy to use. But I could not select any of the stars when drafting my reviews. It is a user rating system only. If you guys update it. Please message me. I might still use this if you can make it apply to drafting posts only.

   This extension does not work. I can’t rate a post. Just display number after reading documentation.

   Very handy when adding in reviews to ACF. Simple to use and implement. Robust though a little difficult to get raw data out of.
