The User Points Vote for Author module extends the power to award points to content authors for voting
modules that depend on Voting API (Voting, Fivestar, Latest and Greatest, Vote Up Down, Up Down).

The module does the following:
 - If a node or comment is voted points (positive or negative, i.e. "up" or "down")
 	 the module grants the amount of voted points to the author of the node or comment
 - If a vote is canceled, the module subtracts that number of points from the author


Configure the module within the Userpoints config
