“Rating” feature should show average stars and number of votes and it should have option to rate for non sign in users. ---

This is also another call for rollup over user-specific columns, which I think is nowhere near staging level. With actions now, we can do this with multiple math columns though (Instead of the old way of adding multiple rows). ---

I think you should be able to make both, average, and votes number, with the instruments we already got. Also, are you sure not signed in users can’t vote? ---

I think the room for improvement here is that users still have to click a button with the right compound action for this to work. It would be nice UX if they don’t have to click twice. ---

Not sure I understand what you mean, but I didn’t actually make a version of voting, just saw I could make the average and the sum etc ---

Let’s say we have a user specific column to write the choice to, then users would still have to click on a button to increment the total vote points and the total number of votes for you to be able to calculate the average. ---

Custom action, increment number of totale votes, there should be a math function to add the vote the user just gave to the total of the votes, calculate average. Not? ---

You can’t do custom action on a rating component, so that’s why we needed the extra button with the custom compound action. ---
