ezstarrating: creating contentobject with ezstarrating attribute via PHP

Wednesday 22 December 2010 11:05:29 am

Hi everyone,
I'm curious to find out if someone has created a contentobject with an ezstarrating attribute from PHP before. I've been looking through the forums as well as the ezstarrating extension classes for a little bit now, but wanted to make sure I'm not reinventing the wheel here.
I'm going the usual route of:
- create object (return new object)
- update via $data_map[ $key ]->fromString( $value );
- store via $data_map[ $key ]->store();
- execute content publish
I've tried simply passing in an integer of the star rating (0-5) as well as a few other combinations, but so far, no dice.
If anyone has done this before or has a hunch as to what kind of format in need to pass this in with I'd much appreciate a quick reply.
Thanks,
Ben

Thanks for the reply Carlos I didn't see that (obviously didn't look very closely either). Are you aware of any plans for this to be added to the extension in the future?

I was thinking of using that but was hoping to be able to do it the ez standard way.
Should be the same outcome so that's fine.
Appreciate the feedback.
