YASR Pro

YASR Pro gives WordPress site owners a choice of ways to rate and review content. Use one overall score for a product, service or article, invite visitors to vote separately, or score several aspects when readers need more detail.

Reviewer scores and user votes

The reviewer enters an overall rating in the editor. Readers see that score in read-only mode. Visitors can submit their own ratings through a separate interactive star widget, and can comment on published content. Other readers can view those comments, including positive and negative feedback.

Choose criteria for detailed reviews

Multi Sets break an evaluation into separate scores. A videogame review, for example, could rate graphics, gameplay and story. Create a set in YASR options, then add it to a post with the shortcode YASR generates.

Place ratings and rankings

Customize star widgets and show ratings in posts, pages, sidebars or footers. Shortcodes can insert overall scores, visitor votes, Multi Sets and rankings where they are needed. A reviewer ranking lists the ten highest-rated items. The responsive design is intended to present rating content across screen sizes.

Review data and developer settings

YASR includes review Schema.org support for entry types such as Book, Course, Event, Game, LocalBusiness, Movie, Product, Recipe and SoftwareApplication, among others. The BlogPosting type does not show stars in search results, and structured data does not guarantee a search capability. The plugin can be used without coding; developers can also work with its REST API and hooks.

Set up YASR Pro

Install the add-on from the WordPress dashboard, activate it and open its settings. Configure the rating options and create any Multi Sets your reviews need. Add the generated shortcodes to posts, pages, widgets or other supported areas, then publish and check how the ratings appear.
