Voting types

The Contest Gallery WordPress plugin allows you to set up a 1-10 star-rating voting system. As an admin, you can select the rating system of any number, odd or even. But odd numbers like, 3-star, 5-star, 7-star, 9-star, and 10-star rating systems are most popular and used globally.

Uploaded files will be ranked based on the total number of stars (votes) they receive from user votes. For example, if a photo receives three 5-star, two 4-star, four 3-star, five 2-star, and three 1-star ratings, its total score would be calculated as follows: (3×5)+(2×4)+(4×3)+(5×2)+(3×1) = 48.

The star-rating voting system offers several benefits. Let’s have a look into them below.

Easy to Use

Overall, it provides an efficient and effective way to evaluate uploaded files based on user feedback.
