Topic: Upvote/Downvote Feature for Post Index

Posted under General

I wasn't sure where to put this because it's not entirely a feature request although I'd like to see it implemented in the site itself. It's a script I put together that's usable as a bookmarklet (tested in Chrome only) that allows users to upvote and downvote straight from the post listing. Because of limitations with the site's API it's unable to show upvotes or downvotes that were made before the page was loaded. However, it sends an additional vote automatically if an existing vote is removed on first click to make sure that the user doesn't mistakenly remove a vote they already made.

My hope is that this will serve as inspiration for an actual site feature. For now, Chrome users can take advantage of this partial implementation. To use it, copy the following script from pastebin to the URL of a new bookmark in Chrome. Now, go to the post listing (/post/index) of e621 and click your new bookmark. Happy voting!

Don't we already have a feature like this?

Is the section where it talks about "Modes" is what you're talking about?

Per the description, yes, it's a similar feature if perhaps a bit clunkier. However, I am unable to locate upvote/downvote options in the mode list at present. I'm not sure if that feature isn't implemented, was disabled at some point, or if it's only available to some accounts, but I do not have it available to me.

I believe it is a priv+ function

That should probably be noted in the help pages, IMO. Maybe along with an explanation of how to attain privileged status.

I guess that explains how you got privileged! Thanks for clearing up some of my confusion. If there's anything else I may have overlooked regarding contributing things like this script toward the site, direction toward those resources would also be helpful.

You're welcome, and don't stop coming up with scripts that would help the site. Much appreciation to you :)

Guys, you all got it wrong. ^ ^ v v < > < > B A Select.

Has that always been priv+? I'm sure that I used it years before I was priv.
