 * I think this is a great concept, but pretty useless for my application.
    Easy
   enough for the developer to fix though….
 * All I want is an easy to use interface for creating star ratings.
    For my use
   only (admin/editor).
 * Example:
    Review Ratings. Overall Rating: ****** Comfort: ***** Style: ***** 
   Price: *****
 * Only needs to be interactive for an admin or editor that is drafting the review.
   Not the site visitors.
 * This add-on installed easy and looks easy to use.
    But I could not select any
   of the stars when drafting my reviews. It is a user rating system only.
 * If you guys update it.
    Please message me. I might still use this if you can 
   make it apply to drafting posts only.

 * Hi,
 * The plugin is really designed as _user_ rating plugin.
    In the description of
   the plugin I wrote, “In admin panel the rating is inactive.”
 * At the moment I don’t plan to change the concept.
    Possible, in the future I 
   will create another “simple” plugin for editor rating (without statistics of 
   voting, without voting/access rules, etc.).
 * You need a rating of only ONE user (administrator/editor). Am I right?
    I would
   recommend you to solve this problem without a rating plugin: 1. create a simple
   ACF SELECT field (text or range) in the admin panel 2. create a picture in the
   theme template, using two images (empty star and full star) and PHP loop. In 
   this case, you can use your favorite picture of star ;). Is this solution good
   for you?
 * This plugin is really quite “heavy” for your problem (in the sense of system 
   resources).
    English is not my first language. I hope that you will understand
   me correctly.
 * Kind regards,
    Liena
