Re: [Andy] [NEW PLUGINS] PollManager In reply to
Hi,

I've had some feedback from a couple of people who have this setup on their site now. The main thing,was the wanted to allow people to vote for a poll, even if it wasn't the "main" one. I've overcome this by adding this feature into the poll_stats.html and poll.cgi stuff - so they can vote on "old" polls.

The new version is 1.1, and available from our Members Area Smile

Cheers

Mmm.. really? Is this on gpaed, on the unterricht install?

I tested it on my install - and that link works fine - it lets you edit the poll fine Unsure

Hm, at the moment I have only a poll with the ID3
But the edit link is searching for a poll with the ID6???

I try to delete all polls, and start again!

Thanks

Hi,

Whoops, I see the problem - the "6" was hard-coded, instead of $hit->{PollID} Tongue

Please download the latest version (same version number, 1.1) - and this will be fixed.

Cheers

Hi Andy,
there is another thing Blush
When unlogged users try to vote, they are redirected to gcommunity login page, but their vote is counted?
Is there a way to allow votes only for logged in users?

Thanks

Hi,

Mmm.. really?

The code shouldn't allow that Unsure

Try editing (in poll.cgi):

Code:
sub check_login {
if (!$USER) {
print $IN->redirect( Links::redirect_login_url ('add') );
}
}

..to:

Code:
sub check_login {
if (!$USER) {
print $IN->redirect( Links::redirect_login_url ('add') );
exit;
}
}

Does that make a difference? (shouldn't even get the exit; , cos it redirects to the $IN->redirect should actually be like doing a print "Location: http:/www.bal \n\n";)

Chers

Yes, that seems to be better. No votes for unlogged users...

Hi Andy,
what about a poll pop up on home.html for logged in users.
The pop disappears, when the user has voted.

I know a pop up is easy to realize with java script, but I don't know how to integrate, that there is no pup up, when the user has voted.

Thanks

Hi,

So a pop-up BOX (i.e new window), with the poll - but *only* for users who haven't voted yet?

Cheers

I'm afraid not (otherwise, people could vote more than once =))

Hi Andy, is it possible to show the link to the results only if a user has already voted?

Untested, but try this:

check_if_they_have_voted
Code:
sub {

my $poll_id = $_[0];
my $username = $USER->{Username};

my $count = $DB->table('PollResults')->count( { PollID => $poll_id, Username => $username } );

return { if_they_have_voted => $count }

}

Code:
<%check_if_they_have_voted($PollID)%>
<%if if_they_have_voted > 0%>
..they HAVE voted, so show the results link...
<%endif%>
