GD Star Rating was far too complicated and the other rating plugins were either too basic or did not work at all. Multi Rating is a simple rating plugin which allows visitors to rate a post based on multiple criteria and questions. It is responsive, easy to use and integrates seamlessly into any WordPress theme.
