Add a rating widget to web content
We can add a rating widget to a content item by adding a [Plugin:ratings] component to the presentation template. By default the plug-in component is rendered using the RatingWidgetDesign design, which is included in the web content library Web Resources v70, or we can create the own design.
When using tagging and rating with web content, ensure that synchronization of the tagging and rating scopes has been set up for the portal.
To add a rating widget to a content item, include the rating plug-in in the presentation template. For example:
<div id="ratings">[Plugin:ratings]</div>The rating plug-in supports the following parameters that are specified in a key=value format:
- design=path
- The design parameter indicates which design to use when rendering the rating widget. Specify the path information using the full library path to the HTML component containing the design template for the rating widget. For example:
[Plugin:ratings design="Web Content/folder/myRatingDesign"]If the design parameter is not specified, a default design is defined in the RatingWidgetDesign component, which is provided with Web Resources v70 library that is included in the product. During rendering the system checks the following locations for the default design:
- The current web content library
- The web content library Web Resources v70
- actionScope=scope
- The actionScope parameter indicates the scope of tags to show in this widget. For a list of possible values see the description of the ratingScope parameter used with the inline tag widget. For example:
[Plugin:tags actionScope="community"]
Stylesheet class note: The presentation template that includes the widget must ensure that the lotusui30 stylesheet class is assigned to the markup containing the widget. We can specify this stylesheet class in the following ways:
- In the presentation template, enclose the widget within a <div> element that references the class. For example, <div class="lotusui30"> ... </div>.
- Create a design for the widget that specifies the class, and reference the design from the Plugin tag with the design parameter.
