Like-Dislike and Ratings Posts/Products

Like-Dislike and Ratings Posts/Products is a lightweight, user-friendly plugin that lets users express feedback on posts, comments, and WooCommerce products with Like, Dislike, and Star Rating options.

Built with performance in mind, the plugin uses AJAX for seamless interaction and offers customization for labels, icon colors, display positions, and more.

?? Note: The product star rating system in this plugin is a custom-built functionality using its own database table, not the default WooCommerce or WordPress rating/comments meta. This ensures better performance and independent control over ratings.
