Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted April 14, 20214 yr I've disabled all star ratings across our site because no one ever uses them. However, people use the reaction button all the time, every day. I can see now why Steam changed their system a few years ago so that an item's rating is based on likes instead of choosing a rating. As of now, we have no way for content to be rated. It would be nice if stars showed up based on the up/down votes. Obviously they would start off at 2.5 or 3, and then as ratings accumulate, it would push the star rating up towards 5 or down towards 1.
April 15, 20214 yr Author Great, but the areas where we really need this are gallery, downloads, and videobox. A global system that integrates everywhere would be ideal. We have hundreds of items that have been available to rate for several years, and that whole time probably three people total added a star rating, while thousands added a "like" reaction.
