Casper,

You need to replace the k2 rating code block with the code snippet i provided, if you have 2 rating codes, it will show both. Create a template override and replace the existing rating code with the one i provided.

Hi Kannan,

I did what you told me: I added the snippet that you provided. Afterwards it shows the voting stars at the bottom of the page as you can see here: mybeautyreview.com/mybeautyreview.com/index.php/component/k2/item/24-art-deco-blusher

But still it is not saying that you first should log in for being able to vote.

When I delete the original code block for rating the page will not load and keeps giving a white screen? Even error report is not showing.

I attached the download link to both item.php and category_item.php so if you might have a look at them and please help me. There are still two rating blocks, the original on the place where it originally is placed and the snappet that you provided on the bottom of both documents.

Thanks in advance

no one?

Anyone please!

The white screen means you accidentally deleted something you shouldn't have and caused a PHP error.

The message (Log in om te kunnen beoordelen.) is hardcoded in your template and cannot be translated.

You need to edit your template and use a language string in order to be translatable eg:and then edit the appropriate language file or use Joomla!'s language overriding functionality

Hi Krikor,

thank you for your reply! I figured how to change translation and to modify the text block so that you first need to be logged in before you can rate.
What I am now figuring out is how to delete the original rating and replace it with the one where you should be logged in first.
What also would be very nice is to show the amount of stars that is rated so far to everyone/public, but when you want to rate you should log in and the text appears saying e.g. 'you should be logged in order to rate'. Is this possible?

Somehow strange that K2 didn't add this option as something standard...Anyhow, help would be very appreciated!:)

The only way this is possible I think is be overriding k2.js, removing the rating part.
Hint: the function starting with $K2('.itemRatingForm a').click(function(event){ ..

Check whether a user is logged in, in your template and include that script accordingly.
