Voting Essentials voting-essentials
The voting component, a tally subclass, is a useful tool that allows members to rate a particular piece of content by simply selecting up or down arrows to indicate their opinion.
Placing multiple instances of a voting component on the same page is allowed; each instance must be configured with a unique tally name
property.
Anonymous posting of a vote is not supported. Site visitors must register and sign in to participate in voting only once. The signed in visitor (member) may change their vote at any time.

UGC should be moderated using one of the standard methods for moderation.
See Moderating User Generated Content.
As of AEM 6.1 Communities, use of a common store for UGC includes programmatic access to UGC regardless of the chosen storage option (such as ASRP, MSRP, or JSRP).
The location and format of the UGC in the repository is subject to change without warning.
See:
- Storage Resource Provider Overview - introduction and repository usage overview.
- SRP and UGC Essentials - SRP utility methods and examples.
- Accessing UGC with SRP - coding guidelines.
- SocialUtils Refactoring - mapping deprecated utility methods to current SRP utility methods.
