voting system
Hi

I am currently planning a site that allows members to vote on designs

There will also need to be a time limit for each contest for example one month.

And the Admin of the site will should be able to easily review entries and approve or delete/disapprove the entries - entries will contain title, description, thumb and main image

Any advice on how to proceed?

Here are 2 example site that have the voting functionality:
http://www.designbyhumans.com/vote
http://www.threadless.com/submission/291461/King_of_the_Jungle

thanks!

RE:voting system
Hi,

Regrettably there is no such a fancy voting module available in Kentico CMS yet.
There is only more simple Poll module.

To achieve your need you will need to develop a custom web part/control. Or, maybe you can consider using bizforms for this with alternative forms - in these forms you will have the look and feel as you need and each item will be represented by a field of the bizform in the alternative form - so you can collect the data and then review them in the CMS Desk interface.

Best regards,
