Visitor Votes Read Only
In some cases you may need to show an average of your visitor’s votes, but without allowing them to rate it (e.g. in a category page). In this case, just add the readonly=”yes” parameter to yasr_visitor_votes shortcode.
What if you want show ratings from another post or page?
All these shortcodes can be used along with the postid parameter. So,if you wish to show a rating from another post or page you can just use the postid, e.g. yasr_overall_rating size="medium" postid="XXXX"
