Ratings tab for a Component or Page

A Component or Page has a Comments tab showing comments submitted for the item, and a Ratings tab showing ratings submitted for the item. This topic explains the Ratings tab.

The Ratings tab shows the following:

  • The rating average as a number and as a number of stars (0-5). The minimum and maximum values as a number depend on your implementation; consult your SDL Tridion Sites administrator to find out what they are. The star value is the number value mapped to a number between 0 and 5.

    For example, if the range of values a visitor can submit is a value between 0 and 25, the stars represent the following value ranges:

    Number of starsRating value range
    00-2.49
    12.5-7.49
    27.5-12.49
