A “Wighted-List-Plugin” like this one would be great ! I think its easy to convert this to ExpressionEngine for wighted Categorie listings. 

Anyone with some spare time ? Paul ? smile

Btw… any ideas to get a wighted list for general use not just for Categories?

tutorial for the keywords plugin

Ennovy modified it to weight categories as described here but as far as I know, hasn’t released that.  At least I think Ennovy’s moods are done by category. =)

The moods are actually done by a custom field.

But, I think it wouldn’t be hard to write some code for weighted categories, using this and some php. smile

Thx for your hints LisaJill!

... but back to my idea: I think it would be nice to have a plugin for that!

I dont have any spare time for it but maybe there is someone around ...

Its not that difficult to implement those things with PHP but ... ehhhh just take it as an idea for a plugin!

1. Comment “Wighted List” Plugin
2. Keyword “Wighted List” Plugin
3. General (variable based= “Wighted List” Plugin

...

;o)

For #2 and #3, the Keywords Plugin can do that. I’m not sure what you mean by #1 - are you looking for a list of all the entries and then weighting each entry based on the number of comments?

I’m writing a plugin for weighted categories right now…

I’ve updated the plugin to work with EE 1.3 now. I uploaded the new copy to my site and sent in a request to have it updated at the plugins site.
