 * Thanks?

 * Hi,
 * A logged in user can only rate the post once. Nevertheless, if the user is not
   logged in the only way to prevent double votes is by cookies and IP. That can
   be enabled in the settings.

 * I think he his referring to authors not being able to vote on their own published
   post to prevent biased voting. Only other loggedin users should be able to vote
   on his post.

 * The exact same thing happens to me as [@teeboy4real](https://wordpress.org/support/users/teeboy4real/).
   
   I have disabled the cache plugins but everything remains the same. I like the
   plugin but there is no way it works well. It is a pain. Is there anyone who knows
   how to fix it?
