I installed the EE Entry Rating Module yesterday from silenz.org

It was really easy to setup and use, but I haven’t had any success sorting by the highest rated entries.

I’m using the example code straight off the site—the only modification I made to the code is inserting my weblog name:

{exp:entry_rating:order_by_rating type="overall" limit="5"}
{exp
:weblog:entries weblog="myweblog" entry_id="{order_by_rating}" sortby="rating" dynamic="off"}
<a href="{path=site/article}">{title}</a>
{exp:entry_rating:show_rating entry_id="{entry_id}"}({overall_vote}){/exp:entry_rating:show_rating}
{
/exp:weblog:entries}
{
/exp:entry_rating:order_by_rating} 

This outputs a list, but it isn’t ordered by by rating—rather, it’s ordered by descending entry date.

I left a comment on the site, but I’m not sure if I should expect a response, so I thought I’d ask here.

Anybody know what could be going wrong?

If the problem isn’t with my EE tags, it’s probably in the php—and I’m an absolute hack. Can’t figure out what’s going on in there with any degree of certainty:)

Have you enabled the extension under CP Home ›  Admin ›  Utilities ›  Extensions Manager ?

Ho.

ly.

crap.

I never enabled the extension.

Can you write a module that incorporates a {restore_pulled_out_hair} tag? That would be great.

I probably spent 75% of my waking hours poking at the php over the last two days. Talk about a weekend well spent:)

You’re awesome, silenz. This mod is sweet.

BTW: I just got it working with a 1-10 voting scale. A small accomplishment for some, but for a self-proclaimed php hack I’m pretty pleased with myself.

Mostly, it speaks for how easy this is to customize.
