• Hi,

    Does anyone know what kind of system I could use to display live voting?
    You know the kind you might see on those auction sites on their home page.
    Live scrolling info of each user as they voted, with their name, country,
    time that they voted and maybe a short one liner of their topic.

    I was talking to a friend about an idea for an awareness group,
    It’s about animal protection and crulity to animals, just letting the
    culprits know they are on the top of a list that is advertised world wide.

    I know there are maybe sites like this, sort of, the more the merrier.
    This put me off at first, because I don’t know if it would make a difference
    But I’m not the only one on the planet that cares about animal welfare.
    On land and in the oceans.

    Some how some way, this will make their governments see what other countries
    think about the same issues, and maybe change the way they think, who knows.

    I asked a friend if they thought these people would even care,
    Their reply was, it’s gonna be seen everywhere, it can’t be taken down,
    And there’s a good chance it will go viral.

    That’s a perfect reason for me to work on this project.

    Any info or ideas appreciated, I want to keep it simple but modern.

    great.. thanks wp community

    It’s hard to answer this without example or more details regarding functionality wanted. If you have a site where you have seen such voting example that would be helpful.

    http://www.polldaddy.com

    are two third party providers… there are probably more out there,
    Or you can search the plugin repository:

    Good luck!

    Thanks,

    I can’t remember one off hand but I saw a few sites that basically just
    had like different topics/polls, logged in users could enter a topic and
    leave their comment, name, country etc. this would be counted as a vote.
    Then this info would be displayed in a scrolling block on the main page,
    Every time someone votes, so the block would always be scrolling comments
    and show the number of voters.. something like that.

    Maybe I should be looking for a poll extension
