Voting

I am waiting for the callback plugin, but I was wondering if there is a way to choose how often a person can vote?

I can't see a field where I can enter it so I was wondering how too.
 
the votes are store in the ip_log table and are cleared each time the new_day function is called. (first hit after midnight, or via cron job). So users are limited to voting once per day, if you want to allow more frequent voting you can set a new cron job to call a script that truncates the mySQL ip_log table every X hours.
 
Thanks Mark, I was testing on my toplist and noticed when I clicked Vote on multiple sites it seems to add a +1 to the 'This Month' category. Thats why I ask.
 
Your probably seeing the output of a "total in" number rather than a "unique in" count. Votes are only unique in
 
http://visiolist.com/docs/styles-design
{$A_B_C_D} - Stats - A is 'unq' or 'tot'; B is 'in', 'out', or 'pv'; C is either 'max', 'avg', or an integer from 0 through 9 where 0 is today/this week/this month and 9 is 9 days ago/9 weeks ago/9 months ago; D is 'daily', 'weekly', or 'monthly'

So for example {$unq_in_0_daily} would show the unique hits in from today
 
My issue is that unq hits daily can be cheated by simply sending the link out to people and them clicking it, I would only like those who Vote to count as a {$unq_in_0_monthly}. Would I change it so that link wouldn't add a number, but the vote button would?
 
I gave a user on my toplist 1500 votes in a day simply by putting the IN link into a traffic exchange. I would like to make it so the user has to click the vote, or possibly a vote page where there is a recaptura or something to verify human authentication. Other toplists have this feature. Im wondering why Visiolist does not.

By making a type of counter that only has VOTES included. Toplists could show that number as the TRUE unique IN amount as a user has actually voted after visiting my toplist.

Why dont you have a good look into your admin settings? "Gateway page to deter cheating for hits in" under the security tab

I do apologise, this is the fix I am looking for, however would there be a way to add a recaptura rather then a simple click? I have a verification overload I know.
 
Using captcha to block all incoming clicks is a pet peeve of mine :) I can't think of a worse way to hurt in/out traffic. Yes I know some old lists use this, and even though they are popular it's a foolish and unnecessary solution. A little admin effort goes a long way preventing cheaters.... Nobody on this planet likes filling out captcha for something as silly as a vote for a website they like.
