Rating
Allows many people to rate how much they like this Thing --
Collection:
Required Type:
Rating Type User Value Property -- has a different value for each User
If you put this Property on a Thing or Model, you can simply say
[[Rating._edit]]
in your Default View, and it will allow you to rate
how much you like this Thing, as 1-5 stars.
Rating is a User Value Property -- each Member can give their own answer.
By adding this Property, you will also wind up adding the Rating Summary Property
on each Thing. You can say [[Rating Summary]]
to display a small bar chart
of how many people have given each rating, or [[Rating Summary -> _average]]
to show the overall average of the ratings.
If you want to let people give a comment with their rating, use the Review Property
instead -- that combines Rating with a comment field. (Do not use Rating and Review
on the same Thing -- it will cause confusion.)
If you want to do more sophisticated things (for instance, having multiple different
Ratings or Reviews for different purposes on the same Thing), you can define your
own Properties of Rating Type and Rating Summarizer. However, this is fairly complicated,
and is only for advanced users for the time being. For most purposes, the built in
Rating and Review Properties should do fine.
If this Property was recently modified, the Summaries may be out of sync.
Press this button to make sure that they are correctly calculated.
