Multi Rating Pro contains an extensive template system which allows anyone with basic PHP, HTML and CSS knowledge to customize the plugin’s presentation. Simply copy & paste the template file from the plugin’s “templates” folder and place it one of the following theme locations:

  1. wp-content/themes/CHILD_THEME/multi-rating-pro/{filename}
  2. wp-content/themes/PARENT_THEME/multi-rating-pro/{filename}
  3. wp-content/plugins/multi-rating-pro/templates/{filename}

The plugin searches the above following file locations in order of priority and will use the new template file if it finds a match.

Note: There are various action hooks and filters also available within the templates which can also be used to customize the presentation.
