Points tally for week/month/interval

Question

Is is possible, possibly through a plugin, to keep track of points for a given interval, either a week or month?  I'm interested in using Q2A and to drive interest I'm considering having prizes based on points tallies.

Answer 1

It's not easily possible currently, because the voting table does not store the date with each vote.

With a plugin you would need to first log the date with each vote in a separate table. Use an event plugin to hook into a voting action. Then a page plugin to display results.

I think instead of logging each vote you could just log the total at the beginning of the interval and then the difference at the end.

That could work. You'd need to set up a cron job to run daily/weekly and run through all the users.
