(Partially Resolved) Request - please add upvoting feature to all topics, heart/vote counts to browse view.

1/2/23 Update:
@Flak has added upvoting functionality to all categories, and is adding heart counts as a feature request! Thanks, Flak!

Original Post:

Could y’all please add upvoting functionality on all UEFN Forum posts in all of the topics, to help community members surface the most universally useful posts? Especially for surfacing answers to questions about creating in UEFN. Currently I only see the option to upvote posts Issues and Bug Reports, and Feedback. Today I found exactly the answer I needed in a previous post by Axel in Scripting, but I wasn’t able to upvote the post for future creators. Recently @HayleyHail and I were talking about how it’s hard to see at a glance which posts are most useful.

In addition, I would love to be able to see an upvote count or heart count in that sidebar next to the list of posts, where we have Replies, Views, and Activity. Even when you sort by “Top” , I can’t tell if hearts are taken into account.

I like the idea of upvotes in addition to the existing hearts, because you can only upvote a post once. Heart counts are a little misleading because it counts the hearts that are left on comments in addition to those left on the original post. So a post with a chatty comment section between two people who are being nice and liking each other’s comments might look more important than a post that’s useful to more creators but isn’t as chatty.

I would also love to heart posts like this but the option isn’t there.

I added the ability to vote in each forum. For the counts, I’ll have to add that as a feature request. Thank you!
