Issue Summary

Hello,
Is there a way for offering points to the users whose nodes have been voted upon? In all of the documentation, the only feature reported is the method of providing points to users who vote. I am in need of a module/feature which awards points to users if their nodes have been voted upon

I've been looking for this also, I found a few topics on this and they all seem dead.

Requires a new module to do that. Moving to correct project.

What is the status on this feature? Also, wasn't this a module prior to merging them? Where can I find that one again?

The only way arround I found on drupal 6 is by using votingpoints and add new rule as described in comment #1 here: http://drupal.org/node/673196 .

However this is useless for the time being since it grants author a fixed number of points regardless the value of other's user vote. If someone could find a way to grant author custom number of points depending on fivestar value would be perfect !

The other way around(which is not suitable to me) is this userpoints_karma module which integrates vote-up/down with userpoints: http://drupal.org/project/userpoints_karma

EDIT: I found this http://drupal.org/node/317585 !

In that thread some people give their implementation(code) of the asked feature. I haven't tested these patches yet but they seem hopefull.

Thanks chefarov, the User Points Voting API module was just what I was looking for. It will get integrate Vote Up/Down with User Points, Version 6.x-1.41 works just fine.

Really? No module for a year?)
I updated my core to 6.x, but never expected this feature will not be available.
it was working fine for 5.x

Titouille has rewritten the userpoints_fivestar module for drupal 6 !

See here :

I have tested it successfully. Shortly :
It grants node author a configurable amount of points every time a user votes through fivestar depending the number of stars voted.
