Hello,

I have played around with the voting function and tried to get it to detract one vote whenever a user dislikes a story, but I can't figure out how to do it and instead when a user dislikes a story it just fades out. I would like to set it so that when a user dislikes a story, it isn't faded out and instead detracts one vote from the story so the total number of votes decreases.
Would anybody know how to do this and could point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Best regards, Jonas

Check out "The Standard" template. It uses up/down voting, which lets users vote down articles. Just copy out the voting function from it's link_summary.tpl file and past it into your own template. You will also need to edit pligg.tpl where it says...

    <script src="{$my_pligg_base}/templates/xmlhttp.php" type="text/javascript"></script>

Change it to:

    <script src="{$my_pligg_base}/templates/xmlhttp_total.php" type="text/javascript"></script>

I think that if you just change that last bit to xmlhttp_total it will change all template's bury links as a negative vote.
