Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

For support use the support forum, but please do read the guidelines before posting.
The plugin works with all caching plugin. If you are using caching plugin other than WP Super Cache, LiteSpeed Cache, WP Fastest Cache, WP Rocket or SG Optimizer, you should enable AJAX load results in the advanced settings.
The plugin allows visitors to rate posts, pages and custom post types. It is not possible to rate archives (categories etc.) as the ratings are stored in the post meta.
This typically happens with various “page builder” themes. In such cases it’s best to include the rating widget with the shortcode [ratemypost] instead of using the automatic option. If that’s too much work, you can add it directly to the template of your theme. See the procedure in the documentation under Troubleshooting -> The “Add rating widget to all posts” feature is not working.
Currently it’s not possible to have more than one rating widget on a single web page. Nevertheless, this will be changed in the future versions.
The documentation is available here.
Such issues typically appear due to caching. If you are encountering such issues enable Ajax load results in the advanced settings.
If you encounter problems with the plugin after an update, first clear the cache (page cache, minify cache, CDN cache such as CloudFlare etc.). Then open an incognito window and see if the problem has been solved. In case it hasn’t don’t hesitate to contact me via the support forum.
If you have trouble saving the settings, clear your browser cache. Such problems typically appear after the update because the browser is still serving old files from cache.
Yes, the plugin is fully compatible with multilingual websites. If you are using the plugin on a multilingual website enable Multilingual website compatibility mode in the advanced settings and then translate strings through your plugin for translations.
Not necessarily because the plugin allows you to customize all frontend strings in the settings. However, backend strings can only be translated with translation files.
The plugin adds structured data for rich snippets, if you enable this option in the settings. Note that since September 2019 Google Shows rich snippets only for the following structured data types: Product, Book, Course, CreativeWorkSeason, CreativeWorkSeries, Episode, Game, LocalBusiness, MediaObject, Movie, MusicPlaylist, MusicRecording, Organization, Recipe, HowTo, SoftwareApplication and Event. The plugin supports all these structured data types except HowTo, SoftwareApplication and Event. These can be added with a filter, but this does require some web development skills. See the documentation for more information.
You should choose structured data type that fits your blog posts. If your blog posts are recipes than choose Recipe; if they are courses select Course etc. In case your blog posts don’t fit any structured data type, than you are according to Google Guidelines not eligible for rich snippets. Learn more about this here.
If rich snippets are not showing check that structured data is valid here. If it’s valid than search engines probably don’t trust your website enough to show rich snippets. You can fix that by producing high-quality content.
