I'm really looking for something very similar to the way SO is setup where a few different kinds of things can be voted on (questions AND answers). What kind of DB schema, generally, could I use to support voting on many different kinds of objects? Would I have a single Vote table that would have references to other objects in the datab...
How would I be able to use the Drupal Fivestar voting module for voting on photos in a gallery without each photo being a separate node. I've used the Fivestar module for voting on seperate nodes, but making each photo in a gallery a node doeasn't seem logical. thanks ...
Apologies: this is my first time on stackoverflow and I'm starting with a question and seeking advice. Sorry. Caveats: I know HTML and CSS pretty well. Javascript and PHP are not completely alien, but I'm really pretty basic on those. That said, I'm pretty sharp and willing to search for explanations independently. Ok, so my question i...

I'm looking for a voting system that we can implement at work amongst our developers. We need something that allows developers to submit ideas about what we can do to improve our development practices (amongst other things) and then have all the developers vote on the ideas to give everyone an idea of what ideas we should attempt to imp...
Everyone loves to display Digg/Tweet/Like badges on their websites, and the Disqus Comment System is starting to take over. The benefits of those systems from a developers perspective are: You don't have to program the complex, fully-featured logic that those seemingly simple systems require. You don't have to handle the ...
I am looking for some javascript or php code where it allows anyone to enter something in a list, and allows people to vote (1 vote per IP or cookie) or rate (not important, OK, important). There would be two lists, one for people suggest features and also rate features up and down in the list. The other would be bugs, for people to vot...
I have the following scenario: The website presents the user with a list of choices. The user can vote for them. The user has 3 votes that he can spend. He can place all 3 votes on one item, or he can distribute them among multiple items. He can also change his vote placements later (the choices aren't fixed and a new, better choice mig...
What I mean by bandwagon effect describes itself like so: Already top-ranked items have a higher tendency to get voted on at all, possibly even to get upvoted. What I am hoping to get is some concrete recommendations, at best based on your practical experience with a mathematical formula and in which situation it helped. However, any u...
Wondering if there is any good cheap software that allows people to vote on items as on a Sharepoint site. The items are not necessarily Q-and-A, otherwise I would use a SO clone. For example, a list of the biggest "pain points" a team faces. Voting helps determine where to allocate resources to fix issues. ...
I'm working on a voting system in AJAX and PHP and I've run into a bit of trouble. We're displaying a bunch of posts from our database and each post has an image next to it -- clicking the image is supposed to 1) toggle the image colour and then 2) use AJAX call a PHP script which then decides whether to add or subtract a vote. I have th...
For student council this year, I'm on the "songs" committee, we pick the songs. Unfortunately, the kids at the dances always end up hating some of the stupid song choices. I thought I could make it different this year. Last thursday, I created a simple PHP application so kids could submit songs into the database, supplying a song name, a...
I have a partial in my rails app that loads the vote form (It's just a select with numbers ranging from 1-5). I'm now making another partial that loads up if the user has already voted it's suppose to be an EDIt partial where you get selected the value that you voted and if you wanted to you could change it. But for some reason is not wo...
Under the user generated posts on my site, I have an Amazon-like rating system: Was this review helpful to you: Yes | No If there are votes, I display the results above that line like so: 5 of 8 people found this reply helpful. I would like to sort the posts based upon these rankings. If you were ranking from most helpful to ...

Hello, I have been trying to load fivestar module and show the rating widget of the selected node in an external php file. I have gotten the rating widget displayed on the page but it only displays degraded version of the widget (non-JavaScript, dropdown widget and "Rate" button) I looked into the source code of the page but the javascr...
I'm trying to develop a voting system in PHP for my posts where visitors can vote them up or down and then I should be able to sort posts by highest/lowest rated. Can anyone please recommend a good script I can use for this? ...
I'm trying to allow users to vote a record up/down with Ajax. I'm using the vote_fu plugin for the voting functionality, and everything works fine without Ajax. I'm now trying to figure out the best way to implement the asynchronous functionality with unobtrusive javascript. What I'm doing now is having two buttons, "Up" and "Down", suc...
This question is more logic than programming at the moment.. once I understand what algorithm(s) I need to use I'll be looking into how to implement it. I've got a list of items in a database that need to be voted up or down by users to determine if they are correct or not. The aim is to provide a % for each item to show how reliable th...
