[uf-discuss] Wordpress hReview Raiting help: Need help in changing the integer values

[Phillip Pearson]

sfam,

The Structured Blogging code to generate the microformat output for 
ratings lives in wpsb-files/microcontent/mc_renderers.php.

In this case what you want to do is change the editor to let you specify 
ratings out of 10 rather than out of 5.

To do this, search for "MCRating" in that file and change this line:

      $max = empty($max) ? 5 : intval($max);

to this:

      $max = empty($max) ? 10 : intval($max);

(Just change the number 5 to 10).

 From then on, all ratings will be out of 10, and this should be 
reflected in the microformat output.

Cheers,
Phil
