I'm building an events site with a lot of repeating events, with the idea that rating one event in a repeating sequence builds on the rating for all the events.
Using the CCK field works across all repeated events, but doesn't allow user rating (only author rating)
Using the rating within the content item itself allows for user rating but doesn't work across all repeated events
Is there any way to get the best of both worlds, user ratings that work across all events in a sequence?

katin commentedThis would definitely be a new feature. There is another feature request for a new fivestar CCK widget that allows users to vote; this request would add the request for averaging ratings to include past repeated events (for event types).

quicksketchWith a lot of fancy PHP code in the fivestar target field, this could be possible already. You'd need to actually find the original event and make it the target no matter what repeated node of the same event you were viewing. The same thing would then need to be done in your theme's node-event.tpl.php or template.php file to make the rating for the first node display.
