sessions comment/like features

Posted Wed, 10/07/2009 - 18:00 by narayanis

How was the sessions feature with Comment and Like implemented? Is it simply a custom content type that uses the comments and fivestar modules? I'd be really interested in hearing about the guts of this, as I'm working on a site that needs a similar feature. I will be allowing users to submit films they'd like to see, then vote up/down to determine popularity. At some point, the item would be closed to comments based on a status (probably a CCK field) and filterable by that status (shown, out of budget, out of print, etc).

Hi Nicholai, sorry for not getting to this sooner, last week wasn't a good week for me.

Yes, as Ken mentioned I'm using the Flag module along with a custom content type (CCK) and Views to display them. He's also correct about a user is required to be logged in before flagging content.

Like you mentioned, Voting API and Fivestar are other good alternatives, and there the Plus1 module which looks kinda cool: is http://drupal.org/project/plus1

I'll be happy to sit down with you, or anyone else, during BarCamp that wants to talk Drupal :)

Believe they're using the Flag module: http://drupal.org/project/flag

You can assign actions to happen as folks flag items. Downside is you have to be logged in for the module to work.
