Hello

I have a contest with three categories. When voting, there will be one winner across all categories. What is the best approach?

Do I enter the categories in the contest or do I make three separate contests? The photo with the most votes wins.

And 

I will have a lot of photos, over 1000. Is there a view that shows which photos have been selected?

Thank you for your response.

Hi Sonja,

From what I hear, I would say the best is to create 3 contests, because categories is just for storing and displaying your contests in the structured way that makes navigation easier for users. See the docs about categories.

There is no such view to display the photo selected. But, you can use a workaround with Entries module. For example, if you Contest A & Contest B and the winner is form Contest B, then in Entries module you can set to display 1 entry from Contest B with the most votes.

Kind regards,

Dmitrijs
