How does the Plugin work? The plugin takes all the images from your WordPress media library and uses them to populate a new area of your website to store the votes and ratings of each image. You can decide which images to include or exclude by reviewing the entries in the Pics Mash area of the WordPress admin panel.
Create a Photo rating specific area of your website The plugin uses the new features of WordPress to create a custom post type for the images involved in the Pics Mash rating tool. All the information needed (image location, ratings, votes) are saved in custom post fields that are easily extracted to be displayed on a custom page template if you so wish. With picsmash it’s easy.
