Hi, Ok, thanks, I'll generate my own AutoField to track each transaction. Just to clarify - when you say they'll be issues with migration, what do you mean? Is it because that field is also as a FK to other models? Or something else? Cheers, Victor On Friday, 19 July 2013 11:50:25 UTC+10, Mik

Hi, I'm leaning more towards NullBooleanField at the moment. There's a number of reasons we're going for binary voting (like/dislike), versus say a star rating. Firstly, rating systems like that are ambiguous - a 2-star rating from me may not be the same as a 2-star rating from somebody else.
