Like , insightful buttons on bitdefender's forum

Previously Like/dislike/off topic/insightful options should be highlighted to avoid mistakenly clicking on the same button again. As there are several threads it can make a confusion.

    I would also like to see this highlighted as this would also be useful to see which post you have already rated. +1

  • @Rock.87 good point… +1

    @Alexandru_BD Any thought on this? Thanks.

  • Well, this is something within the hands of @Alexandru_BD, and he can't claim he needs approval from a higher authority, lol 😂😂😂

    "Okay, let's keep pointing out the problems and missing features in our security solution and its forum. This might help make it better.

    You guys give me work again. 😂 It's on my list and I'll see what can be done here. So, just to be clear, if you posted a reaction on a comment/thread, you wish for that reaction to be highlighted so that you know you reacted previously, when checking a thread again, for example?

    Yes exactly @Alexandru_BD, when I give somebody a like that like would be for example displayed with a darker color or maybe fat so I could easily see which post I have already giving a rating and which post I haven't.

  • @Alexandru_BD

    Yes, that is correct. Cheers.

    Got it. I'm exploring ways to perhaps bold the reaction that was chosen previously by the user. This may take some time to do, but I'll keep you posted. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. 👍️

    Hovering over the darker Like button could reveal a list of supporters, providing more detail about who backed the idea

  • Hovering doesn't work for ideation voting and this is currently a platform limitation. By default, all ideas can be upvoted. When a user clicks to upvote an idea, +1 is added to its Ideation score and this is what matters most, the number of votes the idea collected, in my opinion.

    Polls do provide this option though, depending on their setup, as they can be public or anonymous. Public Polls show the participant's avatars below each results bar, along with a mention of what each user voted for in their comments.

    However, it remains to be seen if a hovering feature will be made available in the future for ideation posts.
    For the record, admins and moderators do have visibility here. There's an additional option displayed for us in the reactions section called "Log". We are able to expand that to check who reacted/voted on a post. 😉😁
