Help Wanted

We need some gifted young PHPer to add some functionality to our future prediction website over on Ning. I want to combine the scenario entry function with a more elaborate rating function, one that allows comments -- like this. Numerical ratings are better than the thumbs-up/thumbs-down thing. And I want people to be able to comment on scenarios they like or think are totally whacked.

Ning will allow you to clone any other app, but I can't figure out how to make these two work together.

Anyone?

UPDATE: Sorry for the inadvertant ageism in the opening line. We'll talk to a gifted PHPer of any age!

Comments

I'm Yoz Grahame, one of the Ning Developer Advocates. What I'd suggest in this case is - rather than trying to combine the two apps - switch to using DoIRock and edit it so that instead of voting on images, you're voting on text. This should be considerably less work than trying to combine two apps, but it's still some PHP work. However, it's possible that someone else has done this already - I'll look around and see if I can find a candidate. If you want to get in touch with me: yoz (at) ning.com.

Thanks, Yoz. I'll be in touch.
