# Ratings

*Article Topics:* [*Comments, Ratings & Likes*](/getting-started/common-topics/comments-ratings-and-likes.md)*,* [*Member Area*](/getting-started/common-topics/member-area.md)*,* [*Blocks*](/getting-started/common-topics/blocks.md)

Ratings enable members to express preference on **Models** and **Content Sets** using either a **1–5 star** scale or **like/dislike**. A list of ratings can be viewed in the Rating section of the User Interaction tab of the specific Model or Set, enabling you to evaluate popularity and trends. The availability and type of rating can be configured, allowing you to set defaults at the **Theme** level and, when necessary, override them within individual **Block** settings.

## Managing Ratings

The Ratings tab provides a list of ratings left by members. Each item in the list will include the following details:

* **Date -** The Date the rating was created.
* **Member Area -** The Member Area on which the rating occurred.
* **Source -** The Model or Content Set that the rating was left on.
* **Member -** The member who made the rating.
* **Rating -** The score left by the member.

Ratings are tracked per type. Each member can leave a star rating *and* a like/dislike rating. Changing either value overwrites the previous value for that type. (A member cannot both like and dislike the same item simultaneously.)

You can also view ratings on individual **Models**, **Sets**, or **Themes** under the **User Interactions** tab.

### Theme-level Settings

Each Theme includes settings that control whether blocks use star ratings, thumbs up/down, or other rating systems. These options can be found in Theme ⟶ Block Defaults section.
