Hello all,
I've revently installed the post-voting plugin on a new, single site.
The "top voted posts" widget doesn't display anything, although several posts I've test voted on should be showing up.
Likewise, the "post voting stats" display in my dashboard displays no data.
Is there a way to fix this problem?
Thanks!

Hi enemieslist and first off, welcome to WPMU DEV!
I wonder of the recent updates to the plugin may have to do with that. Could you please verify you're using the very latest version?
Also, could you let me know what version of WordPress you're using? Is it Multisite enabled?
Thanks,
David

Hi David. Thanks for the welcome.
My wordpress is up to date according to the automatic updater (looks like 3.2.1).
My posts plugin is 2.1.1.
I don't have multisite enabled.

Thanks for the additional info enemieslist. I've got a test site where the widget and dashboard stats are working fine with the latest version so there's got to be something accounting for the difference here.
Could you try deactivating any other plugins to see if there's a plugin conflict?
Also, could we possibly get a link to the site? It'll help to see how the javascript's working on the front-end.
Thanks,
David

Hi David,
The site link is
http://www.kvltist.com
I have to take off at the moment, but I will be back on to test the plugins and let you know what happens.

I have tested the site with all plugins deactivated other than post voting - still get nothing either in the widget or in the backend.
Thoughts?

Hi enemieslist,
Thanks for providing that link, it definitely helps to see how it's working on the site. In looking into it, I couldn't see any posts that currently have votes on them, they're all saying "This post has 0 votes."
Have you tried voting on any posts at this point?

Hi David,
Yes, I've voted on a few different posts.
This post:

and this post:
http://kvltist.com/2011/11/year-of-the-goat-lucem-ferre-of-darkness-2011-van-records/
Both read to me as having one vote.
Sounds like we may be zeroing in on the problem. Once I log out, I no longer see the votes either.
I enabled voting for unregistered users, and now posts with votes are indeed showing up.
Still nothing in Voting Data or the popular posts widget.

Just installed this and getting the same.
Im on WP 3.2.1
And post voting v2.1.2
Any solutions? Surely it doesnt take time to acrue the stats? Should be instant huh.

Hiya folks,
Just noting that we've had a few new releases since this thread and things should be up and running correctly now.
Thanks!
