GD Star Rating Help!

Hey folks,

Just wondering if there are any of you out there that are familiar with the GD Star Rating plugin and are savvy with implementing it in wordpress themes. I've tried a few warriors for hire but am still waiting for a response, but I'd be happy to pay for any advice.

Basically, I'm running wordpress and I would like the rating to show up for the overall site as well. Does anyone know how to implement this?

Under the current settings, the star ratings will show up on the Google Search Results for your specific post only with the star ratings.

I want to tweak it so that the Google Search Results will show the star ratings for my main domain name....ex: tsn.com

Does anyone know how to do that?

Thanks!

    I used GD Star Ratings and it never published the microdata you are referring to. I started using my own microdata a month ago and it is now starting to show up in the SERPs. Maybe I never went deep enough into the config to make it work (since that wasn't my goal at the time).

    I'm having the same trouble.... The rich snippets are getting picked up on the individual pages/posts but not on my main domain. I don't really want the star ratings visible on the main page of my site but if that is the only way to have the rich snippets attached to the search engine result so be it.....the problem I have then is I can't get the shortcode for the "aggregate ratings" or overall average ratings which I would be including on the main page.

    Has anyone else had this trouble or does anyone know if it's possible to have rich snippets picked up by Google without having the data actually visible on the page....i.e. an overall average rating figure for all posts/pages?

    Any help is much appreciated. Thanks
