  • Excellent plugin, waiting for version 1.8.1

    It was necessary to integrate post ratings into the site. Only this plugin (in the free version) provided the most flexible functionality. During the tests, bugs were found and sent to the developer. Some bugs have been fixed, some are still in progress. Bugfixes are very fast.

  • Amazing plugin!

    I have tried it and using it is so simple and intuitive. Probably the best one out there for this purpose.

  • Best Technical Support

    The team at TotalRating is the most responsive tech support that I have come across. They were able to customize their plugin to meet the needs of my site. Hands down the best tech support I have encountered.

  • Great Technical Support

    Great plugin, but the technical support really went out of their way to help me get the ratings working as I wanted and was happy to go with the pro version.
