Vote result

  • Knowledge : Lookup to Knowledge Article Version (NOTICE: Make sure to select 'Read-Only' when you modify this field to master-detail)

Motivation

Based on the idea "Let UNAUTHENTICATED community users vote on articles when using Napili Template". In classic, PKB by Salesforce Labs is available but it won't be updated and Lightning Knowledge is not supported.
