Viewing the votes and comments in your community

To go to the Votes and comments information:


โ€‹1. Go to Analytics in the Admin menu to open the Community Analytics area; this page will open on the Activity Overview tab

2. Click on the Statistics tab to bring up the navigation headings for the different statistics pages.

3. Click on the Votes & Comments heading to go to that area of Statistics.

When the Votes and Comments tab first loads, the default chart shows the statistics from all published challenges in your community. Each bar on the graph represents a challenge, the name of which is shown along the bottom.

The light blue area of each bar represents the number of votes within the challenge and the black area represents the number of comments. The number displayed on each colour tells you the amount of vote or comments in the challenge and the number above the bar is the total number of votes and comments combined.

Use the dropdown menu above the graph if you'd like to view the statistics for archived or unpublished challenges, or if you want to see all challenges on the same graph.

Viewing just votes or comments

If you would like to see the number of votes or comments separately, you can add or remove data series from the chart by clicking on the relevant word in the data key.

For example, if you want to only see the number of votes in challenges, click on Comments in the data legend (found at the top right of the chart area). The comments information will be removed from the chart, leaving only the number of votes in each challenge. To bring back the data for comments, click on the word Comments again.

Exporting data from the votes and comments page

You can export the chart in a variety of formats, depending on your needs.

If you would like the data that is used to draw the graph, you can download a table of this data, either as an excel document, or as a .csv file.

You can also export the ideas and comments from the challenges featured in the chart.
