How do you get the %VOTES_UP% tag to appear on the sidebad widget on the frontpage ? I can’t get it to render at all when I’m trying

I still can’t figure out how to use this plugin to build a comment-based review site. I already read the two tutorials:
http://www.gdstarrating.com/2009/05/27/comments-integration-1/
http://www.gdstarrating.com/2009/05/27/comments-integration-2/
trying the steps on the author’s Starscape theme, but without luck: ratings are only shown near first comment (and not the following ones) and I cannot find how to show the users average rating at the beginning of the post.
I really like the graphics and the great number of options of GD Star Rating but I’m considering to buy one of these two:
http://www.wpreviewsite.com
http://www.wpreviewengine.com
I’d like to buy the GD Star Rating support but not without being sure that it’s possible to use the plugin as a multireting review site and seeing a live example of it.
So I’ll give a 3/5 stars only for that, it’s a pity that tutorials and tech info are so messed up.

This plugin is so useful once you get your head round the complicated documentation and templates. Not one for beginners but if you stick with it, it is so powerful

does anyone know how to replace the “thumbs” icons and just have it text instead? like “i agree” or “i disagree” ? i’d like to make it a little more unique.

WOW. I haven’t tried the plugin YET, but it seems like its even more powerful than my paid WPReviewEngine. Thank you for your AMAZING review. This website is going to be huge in the future!

Hello!
I’ve installed the plugin and I believe I’ve managed to find my way through the complicated settings but for some reasons some of the star ratings are not showing. I see them in My Ratings but on the posts pages where it says Rating: 0.0/10 (0 votes cast)
Example:
http://lyricstranslations.com/yu-english/ceca-pile
(where 1 vote has been cast according to the logs)
Did I do something wrong? (I absolutely don’t think it has anything to do with Moderation as I’ve set no moderation)
