any plans so raters can add a comment to the thread rate?

Nice addon, many ways to use it.
But where is the small js to reset the stars after using the quick reply?

My big board has been using thread ratings for decades. Thread Reviews actually. However, the current addon doesn't offer the functionality we had, so I disabled it. The current functionality is too simple and not intuitive. What we used to have is something similar to XenForo Resource Manager Reviews, but for Threads.
Example:

[XB] Badges - Reviews

xenforo.com

it would be nice to see something similar to this.

And with the schema.org contentRating aggregrateRating, etc.
It would be nice to see star ratings in Google results.

You want to rate threads only? Then show a second page "ratings" with "comments" and "ratings"?

Does this addon use phrases?
I would like to make the ratings score be for the subject of a thread rather than for the thread itself.
For example, say all threads in a particular forum are about car dealers and each thread is about a particular dealer. Could I change the word ‘thread’ to ‘dealer’ (and ‘threads’ to ‘dealers’ if there is a plural usage) so that users know that they are rating the dealer rather than the thread about the dealer? So that the rating system is more intuitive and user friendly for this purpose?
This idea actually expands what this addon can be used for.
Thanks

This add-on was originally designed so that ratings are always associated with posts. But I'll take a look into this.

And with the schema.org contentRating aggregrateRating, etc.

This feature is already available here , you can customize it in the add-on settings

Of course the add-on uses phrases.

If you want each node to use its own phrases rather than being limited to just dealers, this might require a bit of work.

I’ve made an ass out of myself by assuming something incorrectly before, so I did want to check. I’m going to purchase this addon to test it, thank you.
Re having node-specific phrases for each rating purpose, it would be needed if you have nodes with different subjects that you want to rate.
In my car brand related forum, I also have model-specific forums, so being able to have a node-specific phrase where they are asked to rate each model (‘the MG4’, for example) would give the addon a new dimension. Significantly increase its value.
