Is it possible to both show the user's votes (like the # of stars using fivestar for example) in the list of links and organize the links within each category by their rating?

The guys over at Links Package seem to find it fairly straightforward...

I can't speak for views and its related modules, but within Links this functionality doesn't exist currently, but would be possible to add without breaking the API, using an external module.

The table that connects links and nodes has a weight column that determines the order of listing the links. So you could implement an external module that manipulates just the weight column without modifying the other data, and the Links API would respect your changes afterward.

Kind regards,

Has anybody used that package? liked it, didn't...compared to weblinks

Title: Allow votes (fivestar?) to control order of links » Add fivestar support to weblinks

Will add this to the ToDo list and see how hard it will be to todo.

Thanks

This should be pretty simple using Fivestar and Views --

With Fivestar, you can add the widget onto any node type, and Fivestar has views integration --

No coding change is need. Fivestar can do the intergration. Check out this link for an idea how to implement. #254061: Most Popular Links block
