In a support discussion titled ‘Is it possible to do Uservoice style voting with the voting plugin?’, Robert_Best asks if the plugin can replicate Uservoice’s model — where users receive a finite number of votes (e.g., 10) to allocate across ideas, reclaiming votes when topics are implemented or archived. awesomerobot confirms this is already possible, citing joebuhlig’s documentation: users get a configurable vote limit, votes are released when topics close or archive, and reclaimed if reopened — with overflow votes requiring users to wait for releases before voting again. Robert_Best replies that the only missing feature is the ability to assign more than one vote per topic.
For context, Uservoice gives you a certain number of votes (default is 10 I think), and you get to allocate your votes onto any ideas you like… As features etc get implemented, for whatever app you are voting on, you are able to revoke your votes and allocate them to the next idea you favour. Basically, you have a finite number of votes, which is a configurable option, rather than being able to vote yes on as many things as you like.
Maybe something like this is already possible with the voting plugin? If not, then I guess this is a feature request.
