Need to add WP-PostRatings PHP code to appear on Posts only

[Toby39]

Hi folks, I am experimenting with a plugin that enables visitors to rate a Post. I have pasted the PHP <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> into Genesis Hooks (inside the loop: genesis_loop) to get the rating system appear at the bottom of my Posts.

The trouble is, it also appears on every Page.
Do you know how I could get this to only appear on Posts? I am assuming that I'd need to add the code into post.php, but I am not sure where to add this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
T

You didn't follow the plugin's directions properly. You added a loop to the loop. Please review the plugin's directions again: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-postratings/

The loop is an integral part of WordPress and runs on every page and post. It's how content is displayed. You can still use Genesis Simple Hooks, but add the correct code to the after loop hook:

<?php if( is_single() && function_exists('the_ratings')) { the_ratings(); } ?>

The only other option I could see is to type the shortcode, in which it looks like I'd have to manually do that on each individual page (not auto.).

Thank you for your code suggestion, I have placed this in G. Hooks genesis_after_loop and it seems to work a charm.
