or, a way to know, every, month, which songs are best rated...or which songs posted on a month the users like more...

thanks!

Three ideas:

- An 'extra' based on the LDM favourites system, so that users' favourites were treated as nominations for 'entry of the month'. Currently, the favourites table does not keep track of the date/time the item was marked as a favourite, so this would have to be modified.

- Ditto, an 'extra' based on the LDM ratings system.

Both approaches would be quite straighttforward to implement, but might have some compromises - not sure.

- A completely new 'entry of the month' system, running in parallel to ratings and favourites.

I'm assuming that, when you say 'which songs posted on a month the users like more' that this feature only needs to work with new entries in the month. Can someone nominate an old entry this month? If so, what do we do at the end of the month - do we discard the old ratings and start again, or is the system supposed to keep track of the historic winners also?
