Poll Module

Yes, i get the errors on Phorum 5.1.8RC2 -> PHP 5.1.2 -> poll version: 0.2 at our linux webserver ( see phpinfo at www.wunschkinder.net/phorum5/infox.php ) and also on my local apache server Phorum 5.1.8RC2 -> PHP 5.0.0 -> poll version: 0.2 running on windows

The same errors on both installations.

Anyone resolve the issue of the Poll not work in the latest release version of Phorum? I'm on a windows server though so that may have something to do with it. MySQL 5.x and phorum5-cvs-2006030310. I'm getting a blank page when I try to post a second vote and blank page when I try to view results. Usually indicates an error, but none is displayed.

Also, one other item of note, if you have the "Smarturl Mod v0.3" running on the forum, you'll have problems because it will convert the post URL into a link that shows up on the screen in the middle of the FORM ACTION tag value....


--------------

One other interesting note I just found out about the blank screen I'm getting is that view the results of the poll works fine when I'm logged out. However, as soon as I log back in and try to view the poll or results, I get a blank screen again....

So nobody has any ideas about this at all?

Try without the smarturl mod. Does it work then.

I had disabled the smarturl AFTER I already added a poll the first time. And it did not work. But I went ahead and tried it again after disabling smarturl first and it appears to work now.

I guess maybe is was hosing up some of the code when I tried to vote the first time? It seems like you would be able to recreate the error by turning on smarturl, creating a poll, trying to vote once, turning off smarturl, and then trying to vote as someone else or trying to view results... However, that did not seem to work. I think I'll take the stance that it was a one-time glitch and that it won't happen again.

Then I can post again when it does randomly happen to seem even more desparate... :)

Thanks

I cannot seem to get this mod working!
I am new to php, mysql, phorum, and basically everything.

I put the "poll" folder from the zip into my mod directory of my phorum
I then created a mod_poll custom profile
I then edited my .tpl files according to the readme and the examples posted by arlo
I turned the poll on under admin --> modules.

My "new poll" link appears as it should for a registered user, but...

1. I get an ...
"Warning: Unhandled page type. in /www/u/uwgpikecom/htdocs/phorum/common.php on line 565" ... at the top of my phorum (if a registered user is logged in)

2. the "new Poll" button sends me to a file not found...
"The requested URL /powweb-bin/php4/phorum/.php was not found on this server."

Please Help, I am new and still learning so any help should be dummed down for a beginner if possible.

Thanks

Please read *all* the posts on this page:

I think what Amilcar was trying to say is that you probably have a different version of the phorum than this module will support. It can be made to work however. Specifically read pages 15 and 16 of this topic and it should help you solve the problem...

Hi,

take care to not check the "disable HTML"-option when adding the custom profile field. I just searched some hours because the module wouldn't work like expected. Now it's working fine with 5.1.10.

Hi,

is there someone who changed the poll module so that it isn't any longer posible to poll when the corresponding thread is closed?

EDIT

For the moment I did the following changes:

Replace in poll.php line 123

if (!$user_has_voted) {

with

if (!$user_has_voted && !$messages[$key]['closed']) {

line 159

if ($user_has_voted || isset($PHORUM["args"]["showresults"])) {

with

if ($user_has_voted || $messages[$key]['closed'] || isset($PHORUM["args"]["showresults"])) {

line 204

if ($user_has_voted) {

with

if ($user_has_voted && !$messages[$key]['closed']) {
