Description

Post Voting adds a voting system to WordPress posts, allowing visitors to register approval or disapproval for each publication and sort the feed by the highest-rated content. Designed for sites driven by timeline engagement, it transforms the blog into a participatory community where the audience determines which articles stand out, with a visible count next to each item.

Post Voting Key Features

  • Inline voting buttons
    Automatically inserts approval and disapproval controls next to each post.
  • Real-time count
    Updates the vote balance without reloading the page, through an asynchronous request.
  • Popularity sorting
    Reorders listings and archives by the total votes accumulated on each item.
  • Content type control
    Enables or disables voting on posts, pages, or custom content types.
  • Anonymous voting restriction
    Limits interaction to logged-in users when you need to prevent bot manipulation.

Post Voting Benefits

  • Clear approval signal
    You can see which articles resonate with the audience without relying only on comments.
  • Audience-driven curation
    Readers themselves push to the top the content that deserves prominence on the homepage.
  • More time on the page
    The quick voting interaction encourages visitors to stay and explore other posts.
  • Data-driven editorial decisions
    The editorial agenda becomes guided by real engagement numbers, not intuition.

Who Is Post Voting For?

  • Designed for those building communities around content who need a simple like and dislike mechanism.
