So I'm doing what you suggested and experimenting. After messing with my CSV multiple times, I got it working so/so, still need tweaks.

Then I moved on to generate ratings, here's a screenshot

and it gave me Done! Generated 0 ratings!

So what did I miss?

guess you don't allow posting screenshots

so my settings are

Number of ratings to create for each post 3 Between and 7
Randomly rate each category... Between 1 and stars 5
Only rate posts with less than... 1
Only rate posts in the following categories...
Check all Uncategorized
Newsletters

I CHECKED ALL

Author names Female
Male
Both **

If you already have ratings, your option to only generate for posts with less than '1' would not match any criteria.

That or you don't have any posts with category fields defined.

Okay, then this is what I'm asking. All my posts are assigned to one particular category, I'm not new to WP, just to your plugin. Where do I assign these category fields you mention?

And I have NO ratings, so what would I put then Only rate posts with less than..."0"

well "0" didn't do it... tried that and get

No posts found to rate.

Next changed it to 5 (experimenting) and get

Done! Generated 0 ratings!

Under the WFReview menu in wp-admin, define your rating categories. After you do that, they should appear.

Thanks... Now the fog is lifting.. So this is where I'd put the various things that are to be rated.. i.e.

Customer Support
Reliability
Percentage of Winners

etc.

A last question then I'll leave you be. Since right now I'm completely experimenting, once I get it working, what the best way to clear everthing? Delete the blog and start fresh? Or is there a better way?

Thanks for the help... It is now up and running (still in test mode). I now have to gather a bunch more data, tweak the theme and such, but the review plug is working to specs.

I'll PM you the site so you can see.

Oh yeah, was able to get the lightbox plugin to integrate nicely with my images by tweaking the template code a bit
