Dual Like threads.

[Joshua]

So my wordpress website is in development on a local environment. I have successfully made a plugin which allows for two new user roles, each with their own comment section. However, I also need the ability for each user to have their own like stats.

I’ve been looking at many like/upvote plugins and wp-uLike seems like the best, most well written one. However, it is very difficult to modify. Is there a way to easily create a new instance of likes for a different user role? I was considering just creating the new tables and making a new instance of the wp-ulike object. Would this create contradictions in variables? What would I need to modify to make a unique instance run along wp-ulike in the same wordpress installation?

what I’m aiming to have is two seperate like statistics for every post and comment on the site. One for one user role and another for a differnt one. With one like button for all users, which detects which user they are and inserts the user type into the appropriate column(which I can make).

Any insight is greatly appreciated!
