Allowing Users to Rate Web Content<br />

In SharePoint Server 2010, rating functionality has been introduced for all lists. This functionality<br />

can be used on publishing pages to allow users to rate the content on the page<br />

by using a 0-to-5-star rating scale. To add this functionality to publishing pages, you<br />

must enable the rating settings in the Pages library. With these settings enabled, you can<br />

add the Rating site column to the content type that the page layout for the publishing<br />

pages use.<br />

In this exercise, you add a new site column to a page layout content type and then add<br />

the corresponding field control to a page layout.<br />
