For example, if you are cataloging your book collection with WordPress you will add a number between 1-5 to the My Rating Field and that rating will appear as ratings with stars on the front end. There a number ratings plugins that allow users to vote on the content but I wanted something simpler for my own collection. This could be used for reviews and was as personal collections of books, movies, videogames, etc … ## Installation 1. Upload the plugin files to the ‘/wp-content/plugins’ directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly. 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress 3. On the edit post screen, enter a number between .5-5 in the My Rating field. Half stars will work – for example, if you use 4.5. 4. Add the shortcode [star] to you post where you would like the star rating to appear or use the shortcode button on the toolbar. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d2bdf269d2c86c9e32d07de9cbc9adeb25e204544d4df1987d424cb123b256e9? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Just what I needed](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/just-what-i-needed-741/)󠁿 [finditinthebook](https://profiles.wordpress.org/finditinthebook/) April 28, 2018 When I searched on Google the stupid simple phrase "book rating star wordpress" I really didn't expect to find what I was looking for on the 1st page of results.

I have a book blog and just wanted a SIMPLE star rating, not all the other bells and whistles. I already had an app to help with minimization etc so this is perfect. Truly wonderful. Thank you!
