I want to make some of the forum categories a base for this question and answer as implemented [here](https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95464?co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop&hl=en-GB&dark=1)

I dug around and found my solution in this [thread](https://meta.discourse.org/t/using-discourse-as-a-internal-knowledge-base-intranet/33857) but I would like to also display the button at the end of the article

How can i do this?

I’d use this plugin [Discourse Reactions - Beyond Likes - plugin - Discourse Meta](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-reactions-beyond-likes/183261/7) and set two reactions - thumbs up and thumbs down - that would be the easiest solution to achieve and maintain.

You could also go without it and simply use the native Discourse likes for the **Yes** and flags for the **No** , customize the other text in the flag and finally create a custom theme component to add the needed text (but that will be a bit trickier).

I don’t think reactions is a good fit for this feature request. There are two many side effects you would be fighting with.

A custom control of sorts makes much more sense here.

What do you mean I have never worked with this can be a little more information

What kind of side problems can arise, I see only one obstacle in collecting statistics … or is there something else?
