Smackdown

sirkitree - September 23, 2007 - 00:43

Smackdown provides a way to compare two pieces of content to vote upon.

5.x-dev version only allows "apple to apple" comparisons, not "apple to orange", meaning that you can only compare two pieces of content that are of the same content type. Please note that 5.x is no longer supported.

6.x-dev uses core content type and cck nodereference fields so you can do "apples to oranges" comparisons.

Smackdown features

  • Autocomplete form fields for selection of content
  • Taxonomy integration, which essentially limits your autocomplete results (5.x only)
  • A standings page to view results (coming in 6.x once views is integrated)
  • Upon voting, you are redirected to the next Smackdown of the same content type.
  • Ability to have your users create more smackdowns.

5.x-dev requires VotingAPI.
6.x-dev requires VotingAPI, Content Construction Kit (CCK) (specifically Node Reference) which has it's own other dependencies.

This module is great for websites that value high page views as it allows users to view many pages as they keep clicking that vote button.

5.x Developed at Sony BMG in close collaboration with the Lullabots.
6.x Development sponsored by ParentsClick / Lifetime Digital.
