Hi there,

i'm struggling with a little problem. We plan to assemble a song book. We want to offer a quite long list of song titltes on our drupal site and registered users should be able to vote a song up or down by clicking on a link up/down. We want to get a statistic of the most popular songs.

I had a look an nearly all voring modules availabe for drupal 4.7. But none of them fullfilled my needs. So i am thinking of modifing an existing module to fit to my needs.
The question is, which of them might be the easiest to be adapted? The "advpoll" module seems to be looking really nice but it uses the voring api and i haven't found any documentation for that yet.

Do you have any ideas how to fix my problem?

Thanks

heine

did you have a look at vote up/down module http://drupal.org/project/vote_up_down ?
what do you want to modify ? what exactly do you want to do?
There is a nice article also here http://www.lullabot.com/articles/a_review_of_node_review_modules

Hi,
ok, i want to have one site with a list of all the songs, sorted by rank or alphabetically. Each song has two links, vote up and vote down.

Yes i had a look at vote_up_down, but isn't it for page rankings?
I do not know if i want to create a node for each song because there will be hmm, 300.
But i'll give it another try.

I think you have to save songs as nodes. I dont see any other way around it. 300 nodes for a site is really *nothing*.
- create a new type node with the fields you need (maybe using cck) and install one of the rating modules.
