MG 2.2 Edit template so media rating stars link to rating popup

oldford · Nov 6, 2021

I'm trying to make the rating stars link to the rating window. Basically so you can click on the stars or the "Leave a rating" button and get the same result. (see screenshot below)

I believe the template to edit is xfmg_media_view_macros around line 233:

Original code here:

HTML:

<dd>
                <xf:macro template="rating_macros" name="stars_text"
                    arg-rating="{$mediaItem.rating_avg}"
                    arg-count="{$mediaItem.rating_count}"
                    arg-rowClass="ratingStarsRow--textBlock" />
            </dd>

I tried this code with no success:

HTML:

<dd>
<a href="{{ link('media/media-ratings/', $media) }}">          
                <xf:macro template="rating_macros" name="stars_text"
                    arg-rating="{$mediaItem.rating_avg}"
                    arg-count="{$mediaItem.rating_count}"
                    arg-rowClass="ratingStarsRow--textBlock" />
</a>
            </dd>

This code call another template which is rating_macros

HTML:

<dd>
    <xf:macro template="rating_macros" name="stars_text"
    arg-rating="{$mediaItem.rating_avg}"
    arg-count="{$mediaItem.rating_count}"
    arg-rowClass="ratingStarsRow--textBlock" />
</dd>

Try:

HTML:

<dd>
    <a href="{{ link('media/media-ratings/rate', $mediaItem) }}">
        <xf:macro template="rating_macros" name="stars_text"
        arg-rating="{$mediaItem.rating_avg}"
        arg-count="{$mediaItem.rating_count}"
        arg-rowClass="ratingStarsRow--textBlock" />
    </a>
</dd>

Thanks Brogan. That worked great.

I also added the data-xf-click="overlay" so it would pop up a window rather than go to a new page.

HTML:

<dd>
    <a href="{{ link('media/media-ratings/rate', $mediaItem) }}" data-xf-click="overlay">
        <xf:macro template="rating_macros" name="stars_text"
        arg-rating="{$mediaItem.rating_avg}"
arg-count="{$mediaItem.rating_count}"
arg-rowClass="ratingStarsRow--textBlock" />
    </a>
</dd>
