Category: Rating

Rating is not showing below wikipages. Only shows the voting system, but not the rating results.

Will make a show instance

The Quality Team had a break time, and hasn't restarted yet.

Implement a sustainable solution:
* ((Quality Team - How to reduce the workload))
* ((tw:code.tiki.org))

Sort on rating at this tracker is broken.
To reproduce:
* Login here: http://dev.tiki.org/tracker5 (as user xavi, plain registered user)
* click on rating column (to sort items on their rating): it apparently works, even if it shows first the ones with the lowest rating.
* click again on rating column (attemping to sort the items with highest rating first), and still items with 0 in the rating are showed first.

url (only with open items, to reduce potential factors interfering): http://dev.tiki.org/tiki-view_tracker.php?trackerId=5&sort_mode=f_152_desc&status=o

^ __Note__:
Please note that this is using the maintained (non deprecated) rating tracker field (field 152, type "Rating"). If you are an admin, you will see still 2 fields as rating, but one, the former and unmantained (field 62, "Old Rating - Stars (system) visible by Admins only"), is hidden from registered users (it's kept there in dev.t.o in case some devs makes an script to convert the data from the old tracker field into the values for the new tracker field in all tracker items of the same tracker).

I tag this wish a regression since I remember that this worked in past, years ago, but unfortuntely I can't say in which specific version.

I consider this isse to be somewhat important since tiki are being used more and more to allow communities to gather user feedback to prioritize issues, actions, strategies, proposals, etc., in a genuine "wisdowm of crowds" way, and this issue prevents using tiki for this goal, which is a pity when you are using Tiki in the same community for many other community needs... See http://doc.tiki.org/E-democracy

Maybe related to [item1446|item 1146: Trackers: Need to be able sort as numerical instead of text]?

We can't use rating yet (hopefully soon), so at the moment it is just the priority user chooses. From 1-low to 9-high is very subjective and people tend to rate things higher, than they 'objectively' are. I just stumbled across this classification from Bram Molenaar and think that it is a good guideline for rating Items. As long as we use the Priority field, it would be easy to implement, later for Ratings we would have to add something like a legend or so..

--- copied from VIM reference manual TODO List ---
Priority classification:
9 next point release
8 next release
7 as soon as possible
6 soon
5 should be included
4 nice to have
3 consider including
2 maybe not
1 probably not
- unclassified

To reproduce: create a new tracker item on this site. Add it to the Drawing category, but don't give it a rating. After, check the ((Drawing)) page and you can "see" its absence.

On Tiki25 using a tracker you can set a Rating field (after enabling it from the Tracker admin console panel).
You have 3 options only for the user interface, the mode of rating in the tracker field options, Mode:
# Stars (stars icon from Tiki)
# Radio buttons
# Simple (on/off, like a like button)

That would be great if we could use the Stars mode but being able to customizes/change the icon displayed.
Admin could choose his own stars, forks (restaurant), Money (value), Houses (hostel), etc... It's endless and will allow think of many things.

Things to think about;
* Safety mechanism (size of the icon, filetype)
* Where this is saved (I guess file gallery)
* Option to use a fontawesome icon ? (would make it easier... no files required)
* ...

On Tiki24 using a tracker you can set a Rating field (after enabling it from the Tracker admin console panel).
While you need to use values for the voting mechanism, you can set labels for these values in the tracker field options.

However when seeing it on a tracker item, when you want to cast you vote/rating the mouseover will display the value instead of the label.

Some recent work from Kerrnel22 has improved the system field type in TikiWiki. (ItemID & Ratings)

However, this has uncovered some suprises.


1- When tracker fields are modified, a new "system" ItemID appears. It's great that it's now accessible but it shouldn't appear without active admin intervention.
{THUMB(id=28, url="tiki-browse_image.php?imageId=28")}{THUMB}

2- Ratings column moved from left to right after I changed some settings for the tracker.
{THUMB(id=27, url="tiki-browse_image.php?imageId=27")}{THUMB}

3- Any favorable behavior change should be ported to 1.10 as well.



I am not sure it's related, but I sometimes get this error when I add a tracker field:
{THUMB(id=43, url="tiki-browse_image.php?imageId=43")}{THUMB}

On IRC:
13.08.2007 03:03:11 [nkoth_] marclaporte: The reason why items don't appear in the tracker for page=cache is because those items have no rating, and the default sort mode as set in the admin...trackers is rating. It can't sort stuff with no rating so those are not shown.


Nelson is right on. See the 4 attached screenshots, in order.

1- Unrated_but_Categorized_tracker_item.jpg
2- Dev_Tracker_theme1.jpg
3- Rated_and_Categorized_tracker_item.jpg
4- Dev_Tracker_theme2.jpg

These were taken on 2007-08-13, with latest BRANCH-1-9 __after__ Nelson Ko (nkoth)'s recent fix to templates/tiki-plugin_trackerlist.tpl

http://tikiwiki.cvs.sourceforge.net/tikiwiki/tiki/templates/tiki-plugin_trackerlist.tpl?view=log&sortby=date&pathrev=BRANCH-1-9

Possibly related to doc/devtools/cleanCatTrackers.php which Sylvie has been using to periodically clean trackers up.

null rating and 0 is not the same thing.

Can you please retest in currently supported Tiki versions (e.g. Tiki12, ...)? Willing to clear the list of valid bug reports on rating... {sign user="xavi" datetime="2014-02-07T09:51:44+00:00"}

On a Tiki24, on a tracker when you have a rating tracker field an error is be displayed all over the site for all groups (anon included).

The rating system seems to work, but the error (false alarm?) is displayed everywhere and doesn't allow to keep it in place. The error is related to the old and deprecated "trackerfield_starsystem" (hard to find now as it is Experimental)

The error is also displayed (and a problem?) if rebuilding the index.

To fix the error (so it is not displayed) the admin has to enable this deprecated field.??‍♂️

The actual Rating field shouldn't depend on a deprecated and experimental option.

In general, Tiki shouldn't display everywhere an error like this. Eventually the admin or the tracker editor should see the error, but not anonymous or other groups.

{img fileId="2048" thumb="box"}

{img src=show_image.php?id=10 }

{img fileId="396"}

It now shows things like
1.85714285714/13

The first three stars appear half filled after rating five stars?
Is that expected behavior or am I confused?
{img fileId="1032" thumb="box"}

under admin permissions:
If you edit a wiki page with a wiki rating, the old poll is deslected and a new poll is made with the generic name 'rate it'.

This means the scores are reset to zero and the admin has to edit the page again and reselect the old poll.

under registered permissions:
If you edit a wiki page with a wiki rating, the old poll is deslected and the page doesn't have a rating anymore.

Wiki ratings is a very nice feature, but this is a showstopping bug.. I hope it isn't too hard to fix ;).

I am running tw 3.6 LTS in an enterprise environment (PHP 5.3.2, Windows 2003, Apache 2.2.13). We saw this same issue in 3.2 before our LTS upgrade.

We have tried to enable Rating (Polls) by following the instructions at [http://twbasics.keycontent.org/tiki-index.php?page_ref_id=366] and [http://doc.tikiwiki.org/Polls] (Poll templates). I have enabled the Rating, Categories, Poll options in Admin.

After adding the rating option to a wiki page, I save and revisit. I can see the Rating button in the top right corner of the page. When I select it, the button expands as expected into a pane with the options and a vote button, however the page also redirects to tiki-index.php# (my main page).

Why does the Rating button redirect instead of remaining on the page and allowing the user to vote?

It behaves the same in IE6 and FF3.6

Can you please retest in currently supported Tiki versions? (e.g. Tiki12, ...). Thanks in advanced! {sign user="xavi" datetime="2014-02-07T09:46:47+00:00"}

Wiki Ratings doesn't activate in wiki pages when turned on in the wiki admin - upgrading from 1.8.5

Wiki simple rating (and not simple rating) is not working.

I want to set a simple rating system for the wiki page.
But as the doc is unclear, I followed step by step : http://doc.tiki.org/Rating and setup an instance.

I’m not sure if I have to use Poll + simple rating to have it.
After setting the first part (poll rating at the top of the wiki page), I tried to vote and get a CSRF error
{img fileId="1428" thumb="box"}

I get on and enabled wiki simple ratings enabled (Preference name: wiki_simple_ratings)
The (ugly) icons are nicely displayed at the bottom of the page.
When I rated as admin Tiki is doing something and back on the page I can’t see any change.

I retried as anonymous on firefox (permission have been set accordingly) and get a Javascript error on the page loading:
{img fileId="1429" thumb="box"}

I refreshed and rated. Same as above page is refreshed no sign of changes.

Back to Admin=>rating, in the user interface I enabled Detailed rating results and Include percentages in the detailed rating results to find a way to see something. No result. (admin or anon)

I rebuild index and refresh caches. Got another error (related to the server setup):

Re rated and revoted with the same results.
I found a "hidden" (experimental presumly) Rating option at the end of Admin=>Wiki=>Page Listings and activated it. No change.

In doubt I use the Preference Search Results for rating to recheck if they were more options. But no. Retried as admin and anon on both systems, same no go. (I don’t have the CSRF error with Firefox as anon).

I think that having a "Was is useful ?", "What is your opinion about this page ?", etc is a must for a Wiki web application. I tried this, I also tried multilikes that doesn’t work neither (for anonymous) and reported. I understand that the alternative could be a tracker form in a module at the bottom of the pages, but on submission, the counters (like, unlike) won’t update nicely and the page will be refreshed. That is not what is expected for such thing.
