    Hello,

    I’m using this “Rate my Post” plugin and I really like it. Thanks for your efforts.

    I haven’t tried yet but I would like to use this on a buddypress/bbpress install. Please share whatever advice you may have.

    Thanks again!

    Hi @joeco,

    I’m unfortunately not familiar with buddypress/bbpress and I haven’t tested the plugin on such an install. Nevertheless, I don’t see a reason why the plugin wouldn’t work on such an install. Try it out and if you encounter problems feel free ask for support here.

    Regards,

    Hello again,

    I installed Rate My Post on a bbpress/buddypress site. I can see the javascript script tag with the <!CDATA code and the custom css (that I set in the plugin options), in the source code on a forum or topic page but the widget doesn’t display. In the plugin options I added forum,topic,reply in the custom post types.

    I reverted to a WP default theme and got the same results.

    Please send me a private email so I can send you the URL to look at.

    Thank you!

    Hi @joeco,

    this is also an issue with various “custom post type” plugins as they are sanitizing script tags. Rate my Post uses script tags to output structured data in json-ld. I guess there should be no problem if structured data is disabled. There is no easy fix for this. An option is to use microdata rather than json-ld. The plugin supports custom templates and thus it’s possible to add microdata. More about custom templates here.

    Hi Blaz,

    I tried disabling the SSO plugins that use structured data. Didn’t help. I added a rate-my-post folder in my child theme and copied the php docs into it. Didn’t help. Is there a command that is needed to have the plugin look for microdata?

    Thanks again!

    Disabling Rate my Post’s structured data should remove the extra output beneath the widget. One option to solve this and keep structured data is to rewrite the template using microdata but that’s quite some work. I do have this on to-do list but no ETA yet. Otherwise, buddypress could also modify their plugin to allow json-ld structured data, but that you have to ask on their support forum 🙂

    I disabled Rate my Posts’s and SSO’s structured data. Didn’t help. No clues in the Google Console.
