I've made a rating plugin. Works fine. Still a bit of coding to do, but mostly in place now. Try it out on my site. Add any suggestions there or here.

Cheers, Euan.

Just my Just my two cents
I read that you think about working with an IP list to prevent multiple votings. My ISP gives dynamic IPs, so I guess it won't help to log them (at least in my case Laughing )

And my Just my two cents this will also prevent a few network users who's share public ip addresses (with a router or whatever) with each other.
Yes I am mental.

Hmm. Valid points. Any suggestions of how to deal with this? What about the following flags in config.php

allow-anonymous-rating = true/false
prevent-anonymous-rating-from-same-ip = true/false

Cheers, Euan.

Should the ratings plugin be able to be used to collect ratings against USERS as opposed to comments and stories ?

I've changed the $sid to $uid and 'stories' to 'username' but it's not working.

I basically want people to be able to rate a USER, kinda like a Kudos system.....

Cheers!

No that will not work.

The next version of the rating plugin is currently feature complete and is under going final testing. No User ratings but it may not be too hard to add in a later release. A Kudos system also has negative ratings which currently is not supported by the rating plugin

Where were you planning on adding the rating for users? on the User Profile Page?

Yes indeed! My site is a sort of 'pay it forward' kinda idea, but within a company. When a colleague does a favour for another, I'd like the latter to be able to offer kudos points to the former. The more kudos points one has (or the higher the rating, as the case may be), the more respected that user is and the more likely others are to do favours in return,....

Catch ma drift?! Big Grin

Yup,

I added the feature. It was only a few small change to include this functionality for rating a user. The only thing is, it can only be used by added a small function call to one of the core geeklog files (same idea as story ratings) since plugins do not have access to the user profile page.

I'm hoping to release the new version of the rating plugin sometime next week.
