Post Ratings

Let visitors rate any post, page or custom post type from 1 to 5 stars with a single shortcode. Built as a companion to PixelWire's game pages, but works standalone on any theme.

How it works

One shortcode, anywhere

01

Drop in the shortcode

Add [pixelwire_post_rating] to any post, page or custom post type template.

02

Visitors rate 1–5 stars

Logged-in users can rate once and change their vote any time; anonymous visitors are limited to one vote per post by IP.

03

The average updates live

The score and vote count refresh immediately, no page reload needed.

Works on any post type

Games, blog posts, pages, or any custom post type — the shortcode doesn't care what it's placed on.

Fair for logged-out visitors

Anonymous votes are limited by IP, so one person can't stuff the ballot box on a single post.

Change your mind

Logged-in users can update their rating any time — it's not a one-shot vote.

Works on any theme

Built as a PixelWire companion, but it's a standalone shortcode — drop it into any WordPress theme.

Common questions

Do I need PixelWire for this to work?

No — it's a standalone plugin that works on any WordPress theme. It's simply designed to slot neatly under the title on PixelWire's single game page.

Can I limit ratings to logged-in users only?

By default, both logged-in and anonymous visitors can rate. Anonymous voting can be turned off if you'd rather only accept ratings from registered accounts.

How are anonymous votes tracked?

By IP address per post — no cookies or accounts required, and no personal data is stored beyond what's needed to prevent duplicate votes.
