NGG Voting was inspired by a request from Troy Schlegel of Schlegel Photography. Please read the FAQ for more info on how it works.
If you want even more features and functionality, be sure to check out the Premium add-on.
Please read the FAQ, as you are required to add a tag to gallery templates for certain functionality to work!
No Longer Supported
Please note: Due to some personal life circumstances, I was unable to provide the support level I wanted and this plugin stopped being updated awhile ago.
Bringing this plugin up to date, and improving its usability are not feasible, so it will not be updated in the future.
New Replacement Plugin
I have released a replacement plugin that drastically simlifies the user experience, requiring no editing of templates, or code changes.
I will be updating the new ratings plugin with features, and providing active support. Please check it out here.

FAQ.KG
-
In a nutshell, what is this?
-
This plugin adds options that can allow your users to vote on (more like rate) your Galleries and Images. There are options to limit which
Gallery/Image to allow voting on, if the user needs to be registered and logged in, if they can vote more that once, and if they can see the
current results. -
How do I show the voting form?
-
You need to add a small tag to the gallery display template.
For image voting:
For image voting, add the following tag:<?php echo nggv_imageVoteForm($image->pid); ?>
, to the gallery display template.For gallery voting:
For gallery voting, add the following tag:<?php echo nggv_galleryVoteForm($displayed_gallery, $gallery); ?>
, to the gallery display template.For NGG 1.x, you can find the gallery templates in the
/plugins/nextgen-gallery/view/
directory. For the default shortcode,[nggallery id=x]
, you
add the tag to thegallery.php
file. If you add thetemplate
attribute to your shortcode, you need to alter the appropriate template. eg:
If you use the[nggallery id=x template="caption"]
, you need to add the tag to thegallery-caption.php
template.For NGG version 2.x, you need to add the tag to the
/nextgen-gallery/products/photocrati_nextgen/modules/nextgen_basic_gallery/templates/thumbnails/index.php
template. This will only work for galleries inserted WITHOUT selectiong a template from the gallery display options.
NGG v2.x templating system can be confusing for some users. Please see this page for more info on which templates are used.Please be aware, for image voting, the form needs to be placed inside the
foreach()
loop in those templates, as that loop is outputting each image.
I find the best place to put the tag is AFTER the<div class="ngg-gallery-thumbnail">
is CLOSED.
For gallery voting, be sure to place the tag outside of the foreach, or it will show more than once on the page. -
Can I style it?
-
Absolutely. This plugin intentionally adds very little styling to the voting forms, but it does provide plenty of ids and classes allowing you to style it to fit in with your site.
-
Where are the results
-
Under the Gallery or Image options, the current average vote show along with how many votes have been cast. Click on the number of votes cast to view more info on those votes.
You can also see more information on the voting results under the ‘Top Voted’ menu option.
