On my WooCommerce site I am trying to output the star rating for a product that is reviewed. Instead, it outputs this:

Rated 3.38 out of 5 based on 8 customer ratings

What am I missing with the following code?

$rating_count = $product->get_rating_count();
$review_count = $product->get_review_count();
$average      = $product->get_average_rating();
echo wc_get_rating_html( $average, $rating_count );

When I switch from my custom theme to default WordPress theme, the ratings then show.

Suffered with same problem. Finally after lot of search and trial I came up with this solution.

This gets the template where the rating is displayed from. But it displays like this: Rated 4.50 out of 5 based on 2 customer ratings (2 customer reviews)

<div class="rating-custom">
    <?php wc_get_template( 'single-product/rating.php' ); ?>
</div>

Then paste this css code in a custom css.

/*star rating for products*/
.rating-custom div.product .woocommerce-product-rating {
    margin-bottom: 1.618em;
}

.rating-custom .woocommerce-product-rating .star-rating {
    margin: .5em 4px 0 0;
    float: left;
}

.rating-custom .woocommerce-product-rating::after, .rating-custom .woocommerce-product-rating::before {

    content: ' ';
    display: table;

}

.rating-custom .woocommerce-product-rating {
    line-height: 2;
}

.rating-custom .star-rating {
    float: right;
    overflow: hidden;
    position: relative;
    height: 1em;
    line-height: 1;
    font-size: 1em;
    width: 5.4em;
    font-family: star;
}

.rating-custom .star-rating::before {
    content: '\73\73\73\73\73';
    color: #d3ced2;
    float: left;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    position: absolute;
}

.rating-custom .star-rating {
    line-height: 1;
    font-size: 1em;
    font-family: star;
}

.rating-custom .star-rating span {
    overflow: hidden;
    float: left;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    position: absolute;
    padding-top: 1.5em;
}

.rating-custom .star-rating span::before {
    content: '\53\53\53\53\53';
    top: 0;
    position: absolute;
    left: 0;
}

.rating-custom .star-rating span {

    overflow: hidden;
    float: left;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    position: absolute;
    padding-top: 1.5em;

}

Output:

Just make sure the parent container contains the css class woocommerce like following:

<div class="woocommerce">
   <?php wc_single_product_ratings(); ?>
</div>
