Upgrading
    If you already have 3.0, 3.1 or 3.2 installed you can upgrade to 3.3. To do so download the 3.3 version of the script and upload everything except db.php, you can keep your own version of that file (you also don't need to reupload install.php). Once everything has been uploaded run update.php from your browser, here it will ask you to enter the version number of the script you currently have installed it will then update the database with all the nessasary changes. If all has gone well you should be prompted with a message telling you the upgrade is complete and to also delete the update.php file.

    Remember to backup both your files and database before running the update.

Very simple to do. If you've just installed the 3.3 version then it will have installed a template called 3.3 Ajax Template. Edit this template and expand the Rating Form section, here you'll see the code that controls how the ratings form is displayed.

Now you just need to decide where you want the form to show. Expand the Comments Structure section, and wherever you want the ratings form to show add the {ratingform} tag. So if you want it to show above the comments but below the news post you'd do it like this

Code:
{news}
{ratingform}
{comments}
{commentspagintation}
{commentsform}

You shouldn't have to do anything, it should work straight away. Can you link me to your site to show me how it's not working?

ok,

here's what i did. i originally installed the n13news into "news" folder and afterward renamed the folder to "n13news" in order to create a new folder named "news" into which i put the new news page.

the comments were posted when the installed script was in the original "news" folder, that is, before it was renamed to "n13news".

This is a bit strange.

The script works fine here but not here
Can you show me the code you have in /news/index.php

Also, which version of PHP do you have installed?
