Way to display total up votes and also total down votes?

Posted April 6th, 2008 by VL

The default Drigg instllation allows you to display the total count (after up and down votes are counted) on the voting form. But is there a way to not show the total but instead show total number of up votes per scoop and total down votes per scoop?

Nope...

Hi,

Sorry, it can't be done.
It woud be a bit of a UI nightmare to do that... Plus, Drigg now uses the cached precalculated sum() provided by VotingAPi. To have two different counts, I'd have to get VotingAPI to *calculate* those extra things, and...

Merc.

but what about the TOTAL number of votes?

Hi,
but is it possible to calculate total number of votes (regardless Up or Down) ???

It should be a relatively simple sql quiery like total number of comments or total number of nodes
