WP Polls

Good to hear that ??

does anybody know how to make it allow html in the question and the options?

Hi,
Site: Organic Shadows @ https://www.os42.com
I am experiencing this same problem of reloading page casts an automatic vote. Is there a solution to this problem or is that just how it is ?
Thanks and sorry if answered already and I have missed it.

hi i get the ff. error when on my index.php, where the polls are supposed to be at.
Database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1’ at line 1]
SELECT id, question, total_votes FROM ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1

SELECT aid, answers, votes FROM WHERE qid = ORDER BY votes DESC

Everyone seems to have managed to get it done ;P. pls. someone help? many thanks in advance.

ATTN: GamerZ or anyone else… ??
Regarding polls, I noticed on your (GamerZ) weBlog, you’ve made a page clickable from your home page displaying not only the polls, but the past polls or polls-archives. i.e. “https://www.lesterchan.net/blogs/wp-polls.php” I have tried to create somthing similar, but failed… ?? . Would you mind sharing how you made this page up? I think it is a great idea for diplying polls archives.
Thanks.

Hi! This is a great tool! One question: how do I get the pollbar visible? Currently a get the results displayed as percentages. Thanks!

Hi,
I think I have the same problem that benrad had. In Mozilla the polls look perfect, but they screw the layout in IE. Coud someone help me to solve it?

If anyones interested, I finally downloaded and installed Gamerz poll and added in the ability to save ip’s in MySQL to prevent multiple voting. It *seems* to be working fine but I’m not that great with PHP yet.
I plan to add Archives and maybe comments to it sometime too (that is if Gamerz or someone else doesn’t do it first).
You can find the file on the downloads page of my site https://flatplanet.techmonkeyz.net/ (or https://FlatPlanet.ws/ whenever they finally point it to the site). It doesn’t keep the ip’s after someone votes in a newer poll (to save on database size) but you could comment out the line if you wanted to keep them for some reason.
Michiel, I had that problem too. I think it turned out the file said to put the bar image in wp-images/ and the polls calls it from images/ so make sure its trying to load the image from the right place.

Great job! Thanks Armitage for the up-date with WP-Polls.

I install the files and everything, I see the vote area and all that good stuff, but when I vote it keeps showing Zero votes. No matter how many times I vote it still shows zero. Does anyone know?

Hi, I’m a bit new to this whole php so I need some help.
Downloaded the modified polls.php from Armitage.
Where am I suppose to place this code?
——————————————
CREATE TABLE wp_polls_ips (
qid int(5) NOT NULL,
ip varchar(15) NOT NULL
);
——————————————

greenday: Did you create the table wp_polls_ips in your database?
bohemian: You need to use something like PHPMyAdmin.
I probably should have made this a bit easyer but I wrote it awhile back and have been testing it ever since. I am not 100% sure this works right yet so backup for files first. I have however been using it for abotu a month on my site and it seems to be doing fine.
I’ll see if I can write it to create its own table somehow. If you don’t know how to create a table you might want to stay away from this until I can update it (next few days).

hmm, currently the polls invalidates my page as it creates a link with an & in it. Would you happen to know how to fix this?

Where at? I don’t see any &’s in any urls on mine.

It looks like thats caused by your sessions being added onto the end of the poll url. I’m not sure how you have that setup but you need to change the & to an & somehow.
