Hello everyone

Is there a way to allow non logged in guests to rate a post? I know that by default they are not allowed to.

I am afraid not.

The problem, of course, is that elements and actions like post rating, need to be logged against the user, A non-registered user (guest) has no user id and user data in the database. This means their actions can not be logged or tracked
