About GD Star Rating
GD Star Rating is advanced and feature packed plugin for setting up rating system on your WordPress blog. Plugin allows you to set up different rating systems for posts, pages and comments with great degree of customization.
List of features is very, very long, and you can check it out on the page on the right, or better yet go to the official website. Plugin will still remain free and there is no intention for that to change. But, support terms are changed and here you can find more info on that.
Support Changes
Since, developing such complex plugin takes a lot of time, and is done basically for free, I really can’t offer free support anymore. Basic free support will still be available for fixing bugs and some small help here and there. Also, I will try to publish tutorials back on the official website, but I am not sure on the speed and frequency. I intend to keep up with development plans and long list of features, and updates will be published regularly.
But, I decided to offer much higher level of support as a subscription license and that is available from this website. This includes premium tutorials (they will be mostly in the form of the videos), access to the premium forum on this website, email support tickets, features wish-list (or suggestions page), download of the nightly builds (available after every change made to the plugin, long before the actual release) and access tips, examples and templates in the forum that will be made only for the premium support users.
