Hey all. I have a question for any web designers or developers out there. I currently have a Mantis bug tracker setup at http://bugs.GeekFor.Me . I don’t have any real need for a full on bug tracker but it was a nice central location for people to go and search for bugs. However due to the large amount of reports that I got that weren’t Fresh issues I have to keep new reports locked down to only a few select users. But this can take a while for new bugs to get added, if they get added at all.

What I’m looking for is some type of WordPress plugin (preferably) or a separate web app that is capable of having a user submit some type of comment/story but I want other members on the site to be able to vote on whether they agree or disagree on if it’s a legit bug or not. Think of something like digg or reddit where users can vote things up or down. I turned comment voting on 2 days ago which is working well for post comments but it’s not really a great place for people to be able to go and search for bugs.

 

Can anyone out there recommend something that I could use? Like I said it doesn’t need to be a full on bug tracker as I don’t necessarily have a need for that, but a bug tracker that does have voting would be ok too. I installed bugzilla today because it offers voting but the way that it works is not at all intuitive or helpful. I found a plugin for Trac that allows voting but I don’t think it had been updated in a few years and people were reporting issues.

 

Halp! :)   Or if anyone has any better ideas for how users can post and find bugs that isn’t going to take up huge amounts of mine or someone else’s time then let me know. Thanks!
