How Do I Prop A Story?

If you like a story, or think that it deserves the community’s attention, you can give it your stamp of approval by “propping” it. This is essentially a way of voting. To cast your vote, simply hit the red Prop It button to the left of the story summary (Fig A, below). Your vote will be factored into the story’s Propeller Popularity Index, which is the big number above the voting button (Fig B, below). To learn more about how we arrive at that number, take a look at How Are Pages Ranked On Propeller?
