| Summary | 0001573: Idea tracker: vote to proposed ideas | ||||
| Description | Basically it'd mean a "Vote +" and a "Vote -" button on the view issue page, and also there should be a display of the current vote count. The top voted issues should be listed on the main page; this should give the developers a fair view of what the community wants. This should be quite easy to do, about 1-2 hours of work I estimate (yeah I'm a programmer too). | ||||

Yea, I've thought about it too, and I also figured 1-2 hours to implement the feature. And about 20 hours a month of follow-up bug reports ;) |

Well it's not really a complex thing, so I don't think it'd take anywhere near 20 hours to do. At least not, if you do it properly. :D You need an extra field for your 'issues' (or whatever) table, increment it when there's a vote +, decrement it when there's a vote -. What's slightly tricky is preventing double-vote (a quick idea would be to go with a table 'votes' with userid and issueid). By the way, it'd also be a good idea to limit the max number of votes a user can do per day or per month. Edit: oh and we should also be able to vote on notes! High-vote notes should stay out, so you can quickly see the general opinion. (Yeah, the ideas are borrowed from stackoverflow.com. :P) |

I didn't say 20 hours to do, I said 20 hours per month of dealing with bugs and issues related to the new feature, after it was implemented :) |

Yes, I know how you meant it, I just tend to count bugfix time as implementation time as well. :) Also if you have concerns about it, I can just write a firefox GM extension and a small PHP script on my VPS to work around this limitation of the idea tracker (which is quite great anyway, but is really missing this feature!). How does that sound? :P |

That's more a question for Chris. |

Well, this is pretty much done now thanks for the following plugin: http://git.mantisforge.org/w/GaugeSupport.git |
