Another Idea for Improvement

  • I see that you continue to improve the plugin.

    I have another idea for your consideration…

    For the Dashboard widget, the Most Helpful and Least Helpful sections display posts based on the nominal number of positive and negative reviews.

    But…

    This does not capture the true helpfulness of a particular post. I suggest a better measure would be the percentage of votes (positive vs. negative). It’s a much more accurate way to measure a post’s true helpfulness compared to a basic nominal count.

    As it stands now, popular posts will likely appear in both Most Helpful and Least Helpful simply based on the number of people viewing it and voting.

    I hope that makes sense. Thanks for the wonderful plugin!

    I guess an easier way to state my case is…

    Break out the percentage for individual posts (just like you’re broken out the percentage for the grand total at the top of the widget). But also, an option to sort the Most Helpful and Least Helpful based on the percentage – not only the nominal count.

    @anefarious1 as i already wrote, i think the idea is pretty good. However, the statistics are then too extensive for a dashboard widget. I have to think it over. Maybe there will be a new page in the Helpful settings with deeper statistics, which i can expand in the future.

    I also like to install WordPress filters. Then you can build your own statistics (with PHP and JS).

    Unfortunately, I can not implement the wishes as quickly as I am working for an employer again (and not 100% self-employed) … but I try my best in the near future. You just have to wait a bit. ??
