A client wants to use the voting feature to whittle down the selection available, but tells me it’s prompting her to log in to be able to vote.
First, how do I disable that – you should not have to log in to anything to vote – and second, can I view the cumulative total of votes on the images as admin?
you can disable the entire voting in option in settings > general and uncheck “Activate voting”.The user is prompted to login to avoid spam and validate every count as valid vote.
There is not as admin view or screen for the votes, but as user votes the count will increase in the fron-end, once a user has voted the link will display a different color and the user can’t no longer vote, but they can see how many people have voted in a particular image.
I don’t want to disable voting (though maybe that would be something you consider on a per-gallery basis for future releases?) If the gallery is password protected, there can’t really be any spam so I’m not too worried about that – I’d prefer if they took the trouble to use a password to log in, they have the option to vote without having to do even more stuff.
Thanks!!
you have valid points, will try to add an option to use it per gallery, and will check to see if the user has logged into a gallery to allow the to vote.
Anonymous user still will not be allowed to vote.
