Extension summary
This plugin was made for authors who would like to use Goodreads but not at the cost of their mental health.
When enabled in the NEW Goodreads theme (as shown in screenshots 1-3) it automatically sorts your reviews to 5* and most recent.
If you're still on the OLD theme, you can try opening an incognito window and paste the link to your book. There's a high chance it will be the new theme (might take a few tries), just make sure to enable the extension to work with private browsers first AND once you get the new theme you have to reload the page once for the sorting to adjust.
In the new theme it immediately hides:
- Star ratings on all pages, including individual book pages and author profile.
- Number ratings on book pages and author profile.
- Ratings graph below Community Reviews on book pages.
- Social ratings on the book pages.
- All reviews that are not set as 5* on book pages.
- Average number rating on the Author Dashboard.
