## Description

Add the possibility to use rating field in ACF.

Plug-in provide three calculation method for voting:

 1. calculate by cookies (any visitor);
 2. by IP (any visitor);
 3. by user id (registered users only).

If “calculated by cookies” is selected, the only users which use browser with
 cookies
enabled will be able to vote

In field settings you can also:

 1. open|close vote;
 2. tune the number of stars (1 to 20);
 3. specify the method of re-voting – possible(period)|never

Use the_field($field_key, $post_id) or get_field($field_key, $post_id) function

in page template for field output (see ACF documentation).

In admin panel the rating is inactive.

## FAQ

  How to display field on the page?

Add the_field($field_key, $post_id) or get_field($field_key, $post_id) into page

template where it is necessary for you (use $field_name only, if you are sure that
field value exists):

    ```
    <?php
        // add fields in the Loop
        if ( have_posts() ) {
            while ( have_posts() ) {
                the_post();
                if ( function_exists( 'the_field' ) ) {
                    the_field( 'quality', $post->ID );
                }
                the_content(); 
            } // end while
        } // end if
    ?>
    <?php
        // display rating field for post_id=123
        if ( function_exists( 'the_field' ) ) {
            the_field( 'interest', '123' );
            the_field( 'field_62ad11se531h', '123' );
        }
    ?>
    <?php
        // display rating field of user_id = 1
        // to pass $post_id value use 'user_' + user ID format
        if ( function_exists( 'get_field' ) ) {
            $field = get_field( 'field_53ac25b2e521', 'user_1' );
            echo $field;
        }
    ?>
