Vote limit per user - FAQ
To enhance your team's ability to prioritize tasks setting specific limits on user votes can prove invaluable. Checkout our articles below on,
For additional clarity, here are answers to common inquiries we get!
1. Will there be a separate vote limit for upvotes and downvotes?
No, both votes are counted as one. The number of votes includes both upvotes and downvotes.
2. When does a user's time period start?
The time period starts for that user the moment a user votes on the first post after the Admin/members enable this option.
3. As an admin/member, can I reset the time period?
Yes, only if you disable and enable this feature again.
4. What is the maximum limit for votes I can set as an admin/member?
There isn't a maximum limit for the number of votes.
5. How will my customer know how many votes are left?
Once he/she records a vote (upvote/downvote) there will be a pop showing the total amount of votes left compared to the global vote limit.
6. What happens if a customer exhausts the board vote limit before the global vote limit?
In such a scenario, your customer will not be able to vote on that specific board where the vote limit has been exhausted. He/she will be able to vote on all other boards.
7. What happens if a customer exhausts the global vote limit before the board vote limit?
In such a scenario, the customer's board vote limit will be exhausted too. The customer would have to wait for the next time period set to begin and start voting again.
8. As an admin/member can I change the vote limit once the user has already started voting?
Yes, as an admin/member, you can alter the number of votes, both global and board-specific limit anytime. The limit will be considered a rolling limit and it gets adjusted based on the number of votes left and the number of votes already recorded.
9. What happens when a user revokes an added vote?
If the added vote (upvote/downvote) is reverted the total vote consumed limit reduces.
Say a board's vote limit is 10 and the global vote limit is 15, and the user has used 5 votes (4 upvotes and 1 downvote) on that specific board. The board limit will now be 5 and the global vote limit will be 10.
If he/she reverts the downvote the board limit becomes 6 and the global limit becomes 11.
10. Does the max vote limit apply to the Admins/Team members of the Organization?
No, it does not apply to the Admins/Team members of the Organization.
11. Can I set both the board vote limit and global vote limit to the same value?
No, a board vote limit should always be less than or equal to the global vote limit
