| Apr 4, 2013 at 6:53 | comment | added | rareglove99 | And btw,quickly created a mockup on how it should likely be displayed freeimagehosting.net/9acyr .:) It's assuming I have 200 votes/userpoints to use. | |
| Apr 4, 2013 at 6:51 | comment | added | rareglove99 | Wait, i got confused. :) So what you meant in comment #2 was to "donate" Userpoints to a node/form (the candidate is in a form of a node, not a user)? Isn't it that "user"points can only be donated to fellow "users" (saw a module that does this),or was the "donate" term you used just an analogy? Somehow still blurry, but thanks for the suggestions, i think its the right path to take. I'm going to experiment, and let you know. :) | |
| Apr 4, 2013 at 6:26 | comment | added | nit3ch | when the user input vote they are actually donating userpoints to the nominee, the input vote (userpoints) is deducted from the user on form submit, granting and deducting userpoints can be done using userpoints_api as i stated earlier.So the nominee having maximum userpoints is the winner.Hope i am clear enough this time. :) | |
| Apr 4, 2013 at 6:23 | comment | added | rareglove99 | Btw, is it possible to reference nodes to webforms? Since I will need to create a content type to encode all the candidates (might reach a hundred). And based on your suggestion, I'm assuming that I could just assign the "Inputted vote" to the selected candidate in the form? | |
| Apr 4, 2013 at 6:16 | comment | added | rareglove99 | Let me clarify if this is what you mean. Add an "integer" field to the form as the "Input vote" field, then since it is a form, I should be able to collect all the votes when a user "submits" his votes. Is that what you mean? (I have no problem with making the monitoring/graphing functionality) | |
| Apr 4, 2013 at 6:05 | comment | added | nit3ch | you can use custom int field and also you can retive data using view and show it as a graph.Since user is just donating their userpoints to nominee so it is easier to find the leading nominee on the basis of points. | |
| Apr 4, 2013 at 0:37 | comment | added | rareglove99 | Thanks for your replies nit3ch. But what would be the "field/widget" used in the "input vote" field? (Because i need to retrieve the data for monitoring of who is leading/winning and show it as a real time graph/poll) Do i need additional modules/APIs? I already looked into a lot of voting modules like Rate, Fivestar, Poll, and similar modules but all of them does not have the functionality to input a "desired amount of votes" (Maybe trying to find solutions by using "voting" modules is not the right track to solve this special "voting" functionality). I Really appreciate your time on this. | |
