Ratings Addon Version 1.3

[Rob]

The latest version of the rating addon is at http://www.shiftedexposure.com/ratings_13.zip

Changes include statistics in the Admin|Addons page and hopefully a solution to web robots like Yahoo voting for your photos.

Let me know how it works for you.

I'll upgrade right away, but how could I know yahoo is voting for me?

[raminia+]

and what's overlib? something new?

[Rob]

Some people noticed in their logs that the Yahoo web crawler was rating photos. I had noticed it too with my photos getting rated 1 (first link). Of course, none of my pictures are that bad

Overlib brings up nice popup windows. See my site, I use it for the main image (semi-transparent) and for the ratings. That is the best way to explain it

[raminia+]

ThNX , I'll try it later on

BTW, I'm running my pblog at a subdomain pblog.raminia.com which is also available from www.raminia.com/pblog , what should I do for robot.txt?

What other addons are you running? I use the exisiting database connection, so I expect another addon is messing up the database connection.
