About this widget

The ais-rating-menu lets the user refine search results by clicking on stars. The stars are based on the selected attribute.

Requirements

The attribute provided to the widget must be in attributes for faceting, either on the dashboard or using attributesForFaceting with the API.

The attribute values must be integers, not strings nor floats. If your dataset includes float values, the widget returns only exact numerical matches. For example, if a user selects “4 [stars] & Up”, we only return records with values such as 4 or 5, not records with values like 4.5 or 4.7. If your attribute is a float, we recommend indexing a new attribute with the rounded integer value to use in this widget.
