1. How do you restart rating from a thread without deleting it?
2. How to disable the rating system?

Thanks!

You mention about 'Views' column in forumdisplay.php?

How do you get there through myBB, not directories?

I didn't understand your question(How do you get there through myBB, not directories?) fully because of my english. Use different words please.

1) I don't believe you can without running some MySQL queries via something like PHPMyAdmin.

Query:

DELETE FROM mybb_threadratings WHERE tid = 'CHANGE_TO_THREAD_ID'

You of course have to change CHANGE_TO_THREAD_ID to the thread id and change mybb_ if you are using a different prefix.

2) You can't disable the thread rating system, but you can disallow certain usergroups to access this feature. Either:

ACP > Users and Groups > Manage Groups > *Group Name* > Set 'Can Rate Threads' to no.
Or for specific forums:
ACP > Forum Management > Permissions > *Forum Name* > *Group Name* > Set Permissions(or Edit Permissions) > Set 'Can Rate Threads' to no.

Thank you.
