I'm looking for a plugin for viewers to vote up/down on tiddlers. Something like this: https://likebtn.com/en/

I've searched around, does anyone know if it exists?

Changing a vote in TW is trivial.

But HOW without an on-line server version of TW?

You have live server based system you need add this to? Yes?

Just a query.

I'm just looking for a counter up/down, which I can then sort tiddlers by highest count.

Understood. I think.

You want to yourself badge tiddlers with rank and then sort on that, yes?

Thanks Birthe, 

That would be great, but is it unique to each website viewer to rateonn, or a one time thing for the post? Would it build up ratings over time for the same Tidddly post. thats why I thought a counter would show this better.

It would be quite easy to make a button that increments a value in a current tiddler field either each press or after selecting a rating. If you want to accept ratings from multiple users instead set or increment system tiddlers of the form $:/rating/username/tiddlername when the button is pressed

We may even be able to modify the aformentiond rating plugin to do it by user.

I just checked the plugin. No java script there in so it should be easy to do as I suggested.

Genius Tony,

I'm new to Tiddly so still trying to figure all this out, but if its possible, TW looks perfect. Don't suppose this button has already been created has it? is it a plugin?

Thanks

I think by user is best so they only get one vote on each tiddly

I still don't get it.

You have a wiki that has multiple users? Yes?

On a server?

All the users can save to it to add up the voting. But what happens if they do not vote as planned but instead delete the tiddler. Somehow it needs to be limited or?

Exactly with the count/voting part - and then tiddlers could be sorted by top votes/newest/oldest. Deleting would be disabled when i can figure the first part out, Only just come across TW5 and seeing if it can do what we need it too!
