Help with Sevenscript.net 'Rate Anything' Script - PHP Ajax MySQL


Recommended Posts

I purchased this script this morning for $10.  http://www.sevenscript.net/ajax-star-rating-script-rate-anything/

 

I followed the directions and uploaded a code to a few pages, however it does not work. What shows up is a few numbered bullets; no stars and nothing to click. ( You can see here: http://gingeraleauthority.com/reviews/blenheim3.html )

 

They gave you an HTML 'demo' page to upload. I uploaded this to my webroot and it works: www.gingeraleauthority.com/demo.html

    - (uploaded to a blank page = www.gingeraleauthority.com/Untitled_1.html  )

I use Namecheap for my server and MySQL. I used their MySQL, set up a new SQL database just for the ratings.

 

My website: www.gingeraleauthority.com

 

These are their instructions for upload:

1) Import rateanything.sql into your MySQL database.

2) Edit config.php with your MySQL access credentials: your username, password, and database name.

3) Upload files to the root of your web server. Required files: rateanything.php, rateanything.css, rateanything.js, stars.png, jquery.js.

4) In the header of your page you need to add the following lines of code to include the above files:

 

<link href="starrating.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

<script src="jquery.js" type="text/javascript" language="javascript"></script>

<script src="rateanything.js" type="text/javascript" language="javascript"></script>

 

5) Now just add the following line of code anywhere on your page to add a star rating: <div id="rate_01"></div>

To add another to the same page simply add: <div id="rate_02"></div>

6) If you get stuck have a look at the demo.html file in this directory.

 

I followed the directions perfectly. Is there something I am supposed to do with those files that is implied? That I am ignorant to?

I added all the HTML code in the header, was I suppsosed to connect them to the CSS somehow? Other than just linking?

I am experienced in web design but not SQL or scripts.

 

Did I need to do something to the SQL database after importing that file? Did I need to do something to the configure.php file after updating it?

 

I apologize if this is the wrong thread, let me know and I'll move it. If anyone can help in any way, or simply give me a possible problem I might be having. What could possibly be going wrong? Why does the demo page work but not the ones I set up?

Did I need to modify some of the files before uploading them to my public_html webroot (other than what was explicitly stated in the directions)?

THANKS a million!
