Releases for Rate

Security and bugfix release

ATTENTION

Users of the 8.x-1.0 branch are further encouraged to upgrade to 3.x as soon as possible. The 8.x-1.0 branch is not supported, will not get further development, and may not get future security updates.

First full release of Rate for Drupal 9.

Following features are included:

Fixes Rate - Critical - Unsupported - SA-CONTRIB-2022-010

Versions affected: Rate 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.8.
Solution: Install the latest version (7.x-1.8).

Multiple rate widgets on a single entity or single widget on multiple entities. Rating of comments. Customizable rating buttons, labels, descriptions and result summary. Easy Views integration. Voting rollover and voting deadline. New API functions.

In 8.x-1.x it is only possible to have one rate widget per node (or entity).
This brings a lot of limitations when using the module and is also too far from the way the D7 version of Rate behaved.

In the D7 module the rate widgets were stored as configuration entities under admin/structure/rate.
You could easily define custom widgets, such as 10-star rating, emotions (angry, mad etc.), but also customize the appearance of the widget - label position, result function to be used etc. The options of each widget were also easily customizable (label, value to store etc.)

Bug fixes, allow multiple rate widgets, basic views integration

Initial release of 8.x version. Should have basic functionality, but probably still has many bugs to work out. Requires Voting API module.

This release contains an important fix for an AJAX bug introduced in 1.5. It is strongly advised to upgrade if you use 1.5.
