Subsites

It is highly recommended to create a Page Rating subsite for administrators. This allows security to be setup for the subsite to allow only administrators access for the webadmin.

Your site may already have a webadmin subsite. The steps below will add a pagerating subsite into the webadmin subsite.

Web Admin

  1. Create a new subsite under the site root called webadmin.
  2. Create a new subsite under webadmin called pagerating.
  3. Configure the /webadmin/pagerating/ subsite Content Security to give 'No Rights' to 'Anonymous Users' and 'Authenticated Users'.
  4. Configure the /webadmin/pagerating/ subsite Content Security to give permissions to the group of administrators who will manage the Comments.

Adding rating to your page

  1. Navigate to your page
  2. Add a custom script to the page (under Miscellaneous)
  3. Specify the location of the custom script to be:
    • /ADF/apps/pt_page_rating/customcf/pageRating.cfm
  4. Submit the page. You now have the app installed and running.
