Additional Module Configuration.

Configure The Extra Voting Forms Module

Look for “Node types that will accept karma:” tick the Scoop option here.

Look for “Link sections” then Look for “Display the karma form in the links section of a node” and untick this option, this stops the little vote button showing on the teaser next to the comment link.
