PunPoll v1.2.3 (Page 3 of 8)

Quick note - punpoll only works with mysql.  Don't use this is you are using postgres.    I'm looking forward to this being DB independent as I'll install it right away.

pgregg: Good initiative :)

Hey Chacmool!  I'm a fan of your work...

I've installed PunPoll v1.2.4, and it works a treat: http://shuttertalk.com

However, just some feedback - when editing topics, the poll section should be hidden unless there is already a poll on the topic.  I suggest maybe making it like the new post form -- where there's a checkbox to show the poll section or not, and then make it checked by default if there is a poll on the topic already.

What do you think?

Done!

Open: edit.php

Find:
    if (isset($checkboxes))
        $checkboxes = implode('<br>'."ntttt", $checkboxes);

After add:
    require $pun_root.'lang/'.$language.'/'.$language.'_poll.php';
    if(($pun_config['o_polls'] || $cur_user['status'] > 0)                // Polls allowed OR user is moderator or admin
            && (!$cookie['is_guest'] || $pun_config['p_guests_poll'])){    // AND NOT guest OR Guest allowed to post polls
        $checkboxes .= "\n\t\t\t\t".'<br><input type="checkbox" name="showpoll" onClick="change(this);" tabindex="'.($cur_index++).'"> '.$lang_poll['EditPostPoll'];
    }

Download the new version and replace form_edit.php. If you've made changes to
your form_edit.php, I can show you what's changed. (You ONLY need
to follow the steps abovve and replace this file).

Thanks dude!  Much better!

I think you're missing 'EditPostPoll' in your lang file, but that's easily fixed.

Also in the code you posted, there are some missing escape slashes in $checkboxes .= "\n\t\t\t\t"

But it's ok in your readme.txt file.

Thanks! I'm a happier man

Yes I do :) Forgot to colpy the lang-file from my test-forum to the release-dir. Thanks.

No, it's not needed in edit_save.php. It's just database-stuff, so there's no language-file needed there.

Yeah, you're right :) I'll change it.

And I saw the "delete"-comment in another topic here, I'll look at it right away.

Done!

I've uploaded PunPoll v1.2.6 to the directory. Just replace ./punbb/include/punpoll/viewtopic.php with the corresponding file in the zip-package and It should work fine... hopefully.

I got an error during install. Should I ignore it?

An error was encountered 
File: /home/smyrnaky/public_html/punbb/upload/install_mod.php
Line: 40

PunBB reported: Unable to add column poll to table ungdom_topics 
Database reported: Duplicate column name 'poll' (Errno: 1060) 

Hi Chacmool, thanks for the fix - it appears to be ok now.

I was thinking about this over the weekend - do you think it's possible to allow guests to vote as well?  It'll be hard to prevent people from voting twice I know...

What do you think?

Btw. Another admin in "my" forum has a problem with posting a poll. He gets:

sorry for the suedish )

Does this sound familiar?

Anawayz, I've been trying to make a dummy admin and even that didn't give me a err-msg like this. Funny thing..

I have told him that he might try to delete his cookie (so he can get a new and fresh one next time) since I've made a few mods on the forum so it could be that the cookie he has is obsolete. Other than that, I've run out of options...

Could someone please shed some light on this?
