[Image-Based Rating System] Mod

[VSDan]

Not sure if this has been done, but this quick mod will allow you display rating images. For example, 10 stars if rated 10 and 1 star if rated 1.

{if $link.RATE eq '10.00'}<img src="/images/20.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE eq '0.00'}<img src="/images/0.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE eq ''}<img src="/images/0.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '0.50'}<img src="/images/1.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '1.00'}<img src="/images/2.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '1.50'}<img src="/images/3.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '2.00'}<img src="/images/4.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '2.50'}<img src="/images/5.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '3.00'}<img src="/images/6.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '3.50'}<img src="/images/7.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '4.00'}<img src="/images/8.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '4.50'}<img src="/images/9.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '5.00'}<img src="/images/10.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '5.50'}<img src="/images/11.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '6.00'}<img src="/images/12.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '6.50'}<img src="/images/13.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '7.00'}<img src="/images/14.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '7.50'}<img src="/images/15.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '8.00'}<img src="/images/16.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '8.50'}<img src="/images/17.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '9.00'}<img src="/images/18.gif" border="0">
{elseif $link.RATE le '9.50'}<img src="/images/19.gif" border="0">
{else}<img src="/images/20.gif" border="0">
{/if}

Note: change URL to images if the location differs on your server.

Sample images attached as stars.zip
(feel free to download for your use - you can easily change the colours using an application like PainShop or PhotoShop, to name a few)

I hope my code will work fine too

<img src={$link.RATE*2}.gif alt="Rated as {$link.RATE}" border=0>

Would not work in cases where rating was not a whole number or decimal as .5 - for example, 5.4 would equal 10.8. You need to round off to nearest whole number (round($link.RATE * 2)), which I believe requires {php}{/php} - something I was trying to avoid at the time.

Pretty much, anywhere you want the images to display. Play around with it until you get it right.
