The following comment has been made by Tim Boudreau on the dev list: What you're after is more-or-less already possible - Do an IZ query. At the bottom of the page, click "Change Columns". A page with checkboxes for possible columns will appear. Check "Votes". When you get the query page again, if it's not sorted by votes, click the column header. Note that only a miniscule percentage of the total issues filed are voted for at all. Out of 7829 issues currently open, there are 620 which have votes; of those, 200 have more than 1 vote. ========== My reaction to Tim's comment: I am aware that the voting system is not used very much, but I think the system can work, but then, in my opinion, it needs some changes: - Easier way of voting (more intuitive interface) - Better support from issueZilla in sorting according to votes (this issue) If votes are used in sorting, developers use the voting system unconsciously. I think users will finally experience that their votes actually matter and it will encourage voting more.
