digg.com type functionality.

[thenetbox]

If you don't know digg.com allows its users to post stories and then users can then all vote on stories. The story with the most "diggs" appears on the front page.

Now it does not seem difficult to code this as a stand alone website... but since I am not very familiar with vbulletin i'm having a hard time to plan how to create something like this so it gets integrated with vbulletin.

I'd like users to be able to vote on posts or threads. These threads would then get votes and the most voted threads of the month or of the day will be posted on a mainpage.

This probably could be combined somehow with the vb thread voting system... but I need to figure out how to make sure that the same threads don't appear on the front page all the time... They probably need to expire after a while.

Any one willing to make this or atleast guide me a bit :)

Saw this mentioned in another thread (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=108272&highlight=digg) ... not sure how they did it though. Maybe it's a custom mod?

i'll be having a guy build something like this for me in 1-2 weeks.
You will get to make cateogries as sub-forums, and then it will display them all and allow people to add news and the such.
more info soon.

i'll be releasing it on the site once we have a beta - i'll keep everyone posted!

It would be pretty easy to use vbadvanced and modify the news module to do what you want. I modified mine to only pull threads that I mark as featured. You could change yours to pull threads with the highest rating that were posted in a given time frame.

The columns you are interested in are the dateline column in the thread table and the info contained in the threadrate table.

Getting it to a post level would be trickier, but could be done. I would probably make that a phase two thing if I were implementing it.

I would love to see an AddOn like this as well... I can't think that it should be so difficult to implement?

[thenetbox]

Yes :) It would be very cool

amykhar: thanks :D i'll try that

[bashy]

Sounds most interesting :)
