I am a little late to this, but I am adding a plugin for ratings and reviews on post types.

I am using the WP-PostRatings Plugin (works great for my needs) - http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-postratings/installation/
But my question is, what is the best way to implement this into Genesis? I don't want to duplicate the existing schema.

As of right now, I have:

//* Add a comment rating
add_action( 'genesis_after_comments', 'sp_comment_policy' );
function sp_comment_policy() {
	if(function_exists('the_ratings')) { the_ratings(); }
}

The function the plugin tells you to add is: <?php if(function_exists('the_ratings')) { the_ratings(); } ?> but it does not copy and paste with Genesis. As you can see above, I modified the 'sp_comment_policy' function, and the output works, but I want to do it correctly.

Thoughts?

Thanks Ted! Grabbed the photo online to use a filler so I could get the dimensions (1800px by 700px). In fact, I think I pulled the dimensions off your site. And now, I've changed it 🙂

Thanks for the help mintegrate!

I've made it thus far:

Removed:

//* Load scripts only if custom background is being used
	if ( ! get_background_image() )
		return;

	//* Enqueue Backstretch scripts
	wp_enqueue_script( 'minimum-backstretch', get_bloginfo( 'stylesheet_directory' ) . '/js/backstretch.js', array( 'jquery' ), '1.0.0' );
	wp_enqueue_script( 'minimum-backstretch-set', get_bloginfo('stylesheet_directory').'/js/backstretch-set.js' , array( 'jquery', 'minimum-backstretch' ), '1.0.0' );
	wp_localize_script( 'minimum-backstretch-set', 'BackStretchImg', array( 'src' => get_background_image() ) );

Registered:

genesis_register_sidebar( array(
	'id'	=> 'home-slider',
	'name'	=> __( 'Home Slider', 'minimum' ),
	'description'	=> __( 'This is the home slider', 'minimum' ),
) );

And added to front_page.php:

/** Add the featured image section */
add_action( 'genesis_after_header', 'minimum_featured_image' );
function minimum_featured_image() {
	if ( is_home() ) {
		echo '<div id="home-featured"><div class="wrap">';
genesis_widget_area( 'home-slider', array( 'before' => '<div class="home-slider widget-area">', ) ); 
echo '</div></div>';
	}
	elseif ( is_singular( array( 'post', 'page' ) ) && has_post_thumbnail() ){
		echo '<div id="featured-image">';
		echo get_the_post_thumbnail($thumbnail->ID, 'header');
		echo '</div>';
	}
}

It worked! Only problem: It is outputting after the header (which is below the site tagline on minimum pro). I know I am calling for it "after_genesis_header" but still outputs after tagline.

Thoughts? I can't give a URL because it's localhost, but I have a picture:

As you can see, I have the space for the slider, just can't get it dropped in.
