TL;DR: What would it take to allow users nominate posts for a contest? I’m an admin on the Maslow CNC Discourse Forum ([https://forums.maslowcnc.com](https://forums.maslowcnc.com)). I have been running a weekly “Project of the Week” contest where users can nominate posted projects, a poll is generated, and the winner of the poll gets a forum badge as well as some router bits. It’s a great community builder, rewarding users who share their projects and giving community members ideas about how to use their machine. However, I have found that nominations are very spotty. Some weeks I get plenty of them, but other weeks we get none, even though there have been great projects posted. It seems that nominations just aren’t on user’s minds some weeks. I believe that nominations will come more freely if there were a “Nominate” button in the menu at the bottom of posts, as suggested by a user. Ideally, this button would autopost a nomination on the weekly call for nominations topic, although that would require a setting somewhere to identify that topic. I’m open to other actions, though. I have no experience with modifying Discourse, so right now I’m just trying to scope out how much effort a feature like this would require. I have seen [(Superseded) Plugin tutorial #3 - How to add a button after every post?](https://meta.discourse.org/t/plugin-tutorial-3-how-to-add-a-button-after-every-post/11050), so I know how that piece might work, but what action(s) would that button trigger? --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/approach-to-a-nominate-post-button/86828)._
