Allow voting against responses #7

Open brendanheywood opened 3 years ago

brendanheywood commented 3 years ago

If you have a very large audience/ cohort many of the same arguments will be made, depending on your use case it would be better to add weight to an existing argument, both for and possibly also against

hi @brendanheywood , that would be great to have, do you think you it should be something like, like and dislike or just vote the specific response? I was also thinking of adding a report feature to report abusive responses to the teachers.

From a technical level I'd probably allow both, and then have them as options or capabilities. If you are doing a simple case almost like voting for N arguments then you probably don't need negative votes. But if you go for the nested model like Kialo then I think you need to votes in both directions because you want to get a measure of the persuasiveness of each counter argument.

You could probably just use the https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Rating_API and let it be completely configurable

+1 on the voting. A simple thumbs up or down with counter would be nice, both on the actual 'Positive' of 'Negative' but also on the replies. The best reply should be voted to the top. A bit like the 'hot question' plugin.
