I see two different styles of idea voting posts, and I cant tell why they are different. One is a Idea post which has only a upvote button besides the title and the other is an idea topic which has a large up and downvote widget besides the post and a “comment” function.

I see both styles in the same Category, the Catgegory has Discussion idea (and i added support but it seems to not make a change). I see this with 2026.7.1. I say both styles for my Staff user posting it.
