Forgive me if this is already done.

Firstly, is this possible with the current version to have a dynamic action by promoting stories to frontpage when it reaches certain amount of votes? How? The default state is published but not promoted to frontpage.

Second, how to mimick digg' made popular line. Say when the story reached the frontpage the line changed from user A "submitted" to user A "made popular". Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I remembered I could do this with voting_actions back in my d5. But voting_actions is not yet ported to d6 now. Any other solution? Thanks

Flag module seems to be able to achieve the promotion digg-like, http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/flag. But I find myself clueless now. Any direction will be appreciated. Thanks

There is Voting Rules now.

Since Digg is mentioned - I would use the Radioactivity module instead of relying directly on the vote count as votes accumulated over time doesn't have to indicate that something is popular enough for a front page promotion.

I'm unsure whether there's any Rules integration or similar for the Radioactivity module though.

Radioactivity definitely has VotingApi support.

See #971394: VotingAPI Rules Integration for Rules integration in the VotingApi module, where this really belongs.
