Hi!

It appears that description of tt_rating plugin at
http://typo3.org/extensions/repository/list/tt_rating/ is wrong :( My
findings:

----------------------------
Please note that the rating plugin is not enabled by default in typo3. You
have to include the file rating_extTables.inc in typo3conf/localconf.php.
Set in localconf.php:
$typo_db_extTableDef_script = "extTables.php";
----------------------------
There is no extTables.php in /typo3conf where localconf.php is located but
there is one in /typo3/ext/tt_rating. Should I still put the mentioned line
(without a path to tt_rating directory) to localconf.php?

-------------------------------------
Add/set/uncomment in extTables.php:
include(PATH_site."media/scripts/rating_extTables.inc");
-------------------------------------
There is no rating_extTables.inc in media/scripts/ directory at all.
Interstingly, ext_typoscript_setup.txt for this plugin sets processScript to
EXT:tt_rating/pi/rating_submit.inc.

Does anyone have an up-to-date information about setting up tt_rating
plugin?

Does tt_rating work with TemplaVoila-based sites? I tried to insert it with
"RESULT,VOTEFORM" codes but it always tells me "This page is not rated yet"
after I submit a rating. I see new records in the tt_rating table but there
are only zero values there...

Dmitry.
