Voting

drawk - June 23, 2005 - 20:53

The voting module is a simple five star voting/rating system. It uses an embedded Flash movie so that the page does not need to reload when a user votes. Anonymous users can vote if they are granted the "vote on content" permission. Colors are configurable from the settings control panel. Source .fla file is included. A plugin for TinyMCE is also included. This system is completely separate from the Drupal moderation system. It works with nodes, comments, or any other type of content. Voting systems like these are often used for photo galleries, news articles, etc. Other features could be added (in this module or another) to take advantage of a user's ratings to provide personalized recommendations or a popular content block.
