Sillyness, werd

I’ll be brave.

I have a music review site and a blog that I could test this great plugin on, if you are still looking for beta testers.

Hey guys, thansks for all the interest. When I have everything ready to go I will be contacting you forth-with. I am hoping to get 10 admins to run this on thier sites for me to really put it through its paces.

I can help you debug your plugin in my own site and in an internal deployment where your plugin would be very nice to vote for each other

I would be willing to test the plugin. It looks great!!

I would definitely be interested in testing for you Chris. I’m in the process of readying a new layout for my blog, and this is definitely a plugin I’d be interested in including. Drop me a line sometime.

Welcome guys,

Wow! I never thought that someone would take my suggestion seriously. Good work. I might just switch to WP over it :-)

Hey, good plugin ideas need to be written! I actually had fun writing it and I think it will be a nice feature for the WP community. And hey, come on over the waters fine, there are a number of people who are always willing to lend a hand in migrating, and you can always count on crazy people like me to write stuff you want!

cool :) so when are you going to release it?

As soon as I have some testing done, I am using this site of course and I am looking for some people who are wanting to beta test for me… know of any sucke… err I mean brave souls who would be interested?

my surname is brave 8-) i would like to test it too

Excellent, thanks guys I hope to have something for you to test in the next few days. I am pretty satisfied with my internal alpha testing, I haven’t found any bugs that I can see, so almost on two phase 2: beta!

Look for something soon.

I would be happy to help beta-test, but I wonder if there might be a way to lower or raise the number of votes it takes to rank a post. I don’t get too many interactive readers (which is why I am interested in ways to provide interaction).

Hey Everyone,

Just a quick not to let you know I haven’t forgotten the beta test, things have just been moving a little slower than I had wanted.

That sounds great. I guess, just send the word outt when the beta is ready for testing.

Will do, the last but I need to flesh out is the script to update yoru databases to add the post_rating column to your $posts table.

Hey, Chris -

I’ve been looking for something just like this for my new site. We are a small group of professionals in the film industry who make one short film a week on our day off. We just started making the films available to the public 3 days ago, and it would be great to be able to have the audience vote on our favorites. If you’re still looking for testers, I would love to be involved.

Chris,
Just curious as to when this plugin might be available…you’ve done an awesome job on it from what I can see on the front end!

We would love to use this plug in at WordPress.Com

Please let us know when you consider it stable

Say the word and I’d love to help you test it. :)

I’d love to help you test it, too.. i’ll be a tester!

Would be happy to help test your vote pug in. I have a couple of function suggestions as well.

cheers

I would like to get my hands on that, if you don’t mind.

How is the testing progressing? I took a look at the source on wp.plugins.org, but I didn’t really see any install docs. I’m a PHP NOOB and would appreciate some insight. Can’t wait to use this plugin!

Same here Chad, but I’d say that I’m not too much of a noob. Chris I’m not sure how to add the post_rating column to my $posts table. Can you give us a clue of what to do? There weren’t any instructions in the PHP files, so we are kinda lost on what to do at this point.

Of course, any help is appreciated!

I’d love to try it out, otherwise does anyone know of any similar plugins?

I also would be very interested in testing this out for you. I’m redesigning my site and would love to incorporate this.

I hope that with the Shuttle project starting, this excellent idea for a plugin doesn’t fall by the wayside. I’ve been really looking forward to this functionality.

To Chad and Adam - I’m having problems figuring out what to do once the files are in the appropriate places, too… either of you guys figure anything out?

Man, I’ve been looking for a plug in like this for ages.. when will it be released?

Would love your plugin please email it to me.
Thanks,
Bret

Gah! I stumble across this post via google and it seems Michael as abandoned that plugin on his site and Jamie never released his version and there’s none here and I wasn’t looking for that kind of plugin in the first place, just a simple 1 to 10 scale rating for movies, books, etc. I shall google some more!
Interesting concept though the noteworthy thing :)=

Hi Chris,

I am having some trouble implementing the plugin. I have gotten it to display the icons and everything, and also the admin controls. I haven’t been able to get it to display the “Vote for this article” button. How can I implement that, I’ve tried calling the current_rating($post->id) within the document but only the box shows up and when it is clicked it doesn’t do anything. Let me know if you can help. Thanks!

Hi Chris,

Great idea but I have the same problem as the previous poster: I get the star/heart by using the admin rating but cannot get it to display the user voting option.

Any tips?
Martijn

Hi there,

Not te be pushy but just to know: is it still planned to be finished some time or can I do something to help make that happen? I really would like to use it.

Or did you just abandon it? (which is fine too since it is your project).

Regards,
Martijn

Nice plugin, but I guess I’m missing examples?

So, is there any way to download and test the plugin?

This sounds like a great plugin.

What I really want though is a rating scale of -2 to +2 (from strong disagreement to strong approval)

I just don’t get why people making rating/voting tools never include negative scores!

Maybe one day I’ll learn to code something myself…

What I want to do on my blog, is every few hours take the oldest post and move it to the
front of the queue, all automatically. Anyone know if there is a plugin that can do this or
a simple way to set up another plugin to do this (use my own feed perhaps)?
Thanks.
