Changing rating function

[anomali]

Sorry if this has been asked before (or atleast something similar) but here goes.

I'm working at a modelagency, and I just installed coppermine at our server for internal usage.
We are goin to use it in a bunch of different ways, and it seems that it's going to make our job a whole lot easier, so for that I thank you all.

The first thing i need to change if possible is this: We have alot of people that are sending in application to us to be models.
And the way it works is this, each and everyone of us has to check the application and say, yes, no or dont know/dont care.
The ratingsystem that you guys have are great for this. But is it possible to change it form a numeric scale (0-5) to instead have text that says "Yes, No, Dont know" ?
If so, where do I change it?
(and also, cant seem to find where to modifie so we get the ratebox over the image instead of under it?)

Anyone has the time to help me out?

Thanks in advance

depends a bit on the theme you're using - post, which one you have chosen. Generally speaking, edit themes/yourtheme/theme.php and paste

Code Select Expand

// HTML template for the image rating box
$template_image_rating = <<<EOT
<table align="center" width="{WIDTH}" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0" class="maintable">
        <tr>
                <td colspan="3" class="tableh2_compact"><b>{TITLE}</b> {VOTES}</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
                <td class="tableb_compact" width="33%" align="center"><a href="{RATE0}" title="no" rel="nofollow">no<br /></a></td>
                <td class="tableb_compact" width="33%" align="center"><a href="{RATE2}" title="Dont know" rel="nofollow">Dont know<br /></a></td>
                <td class="tableb_compact" width="34%" align="center"><a href="{RATE4}" title="Yes" rel="nofollow">yes<br /></a></td>
        </tr>
</table>

Well editing my own message wasnt the smartest thing to do, so I edited it.

your tip worked as a charm.. the next problem is: if i place the code you gave me in another position.. will it move the rating boxes there to?

(dont know if I'm allowed to ask multiple questions in one thread, if not, Sorry)

You can copy the function theme_display_image() from include/themes.inc.php into your theme's theme.php and change the ordering of the sections there.

Sweet.. will do that as soon as i get home.

thanks a bunch for you quick help

So.. I tried to copying the theme_display_image() block from the theme.inc.php as adviced, but when I change the order and put it in this order(or any other than the default) $nav_menu, $votes, $picture, $pic_info, $comments, $film_strip everyting works except the picture now has lost it's position in the center and is now to the far left.

Am I missing something here? Well I propably are since I really dont know that much about anything
Btw, I'm using the Macos theme.

Thanks

[Nibbler]

Post your code.

[anomali]

guess you dont need it all, so here it is from the theme bit and down:
//{THEMES}

if (!function_exists('theme_display_image')) {  //{THEMES}
function theme_display_image($nav_menu, $votes, $picture, $pic_info, $comments, $film_strip)
{
    global $CONFIG;

    $width = $CONFIG['picture_table_width'];

    starttable();
    echo $nav_menu;
    endtable();

    starttable();
    echo $picture;
    endtable();
    if ($CONFIG['display_film_strip'] == 1) {
        echo $film_strip;
    }


    echo $votes;



    $picinfo = isset($_COOKIE['picinfo']) ? $_COOKIE['picinfo'] : ($CONFIG['display_pic_info'] ? 'block' : 'none');
    echo "<div id=\"picinfo\" style=\"display: $picinfo;\">\n";
    starttable();
    echo $pic_info;
    endtable();
    echo "</div>\n";

    echo "<div id=\"comments\">\n";
        echo $comments;
        echo "</div>\n";

}
}  //{THEMES}
// HTML template for the image rating box
$template_image_rating = <<<EOT
<table align="center" width="$width" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0" class="maintable">
        <tr>
                <td colspan="3" class="tableh2_compact"><b>{TITLE}</b> {VOTES}</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
                <td class="tableb_compact" width="33%" align="center"><a href="{RATE0}" title="Nej" rel="nofollow">Nej<br /></a></td>
                <td class="tableb_compact" width="33%" align="center"><a href="{RATE2}" title="Vet inte" rel="nofollow">Vet inte<br /></a></td>
                <td class="tableb_compact" width="34%" align="center"><a href="{RATE4}" title="Ja" rel="nofollow">Ja<br /></a></td>
        </tr>
</table>
EOT;
?>
