Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

WP PlugIndex currently records EC Stars Rating version 1.0.11 as active, updated 11y ago and tested up to WordPress 4.3.

Overview

About this plugin

A super fast WordPress star rating plugin, optimized for SEO, and with a really low impact on page load (just CSS + a bit of HTML, plus the strictly required JS for working).

Developers

The svn repo has been recently synchronized with a github one.

Contributions are more than welcome, so feel free to submit a PR there if you wish 🙂

How it works

Basically we create a new table called (prefix)ec_stars_votes, where we store the votes of the people (to prevent duplicate votes).

The number of votes and the sum of the total votes are stored in the (prefix)options table in form of custom meta fields, one for the count, and another for the sum. Both fields get updated when someone votes.

“Tested up to” is directory metadata supplied by the plugin author. WP PlugIndex does not turn an older declaration into a claim that the plugin is incompatible.
