Users can vote more than once on my board too. Can this be fixed? This didn't exsist on Beta 1.5, which I just upgraded from.

yeah, I got the same problem. There will always be some wise guy to vote 10 times and throw off the whole poll.

I hope this can be fixed soon.

Thanks for that bugfix Gaurdian...

One more:

Right above the above fix, there's some capitalization problems that doesn't help either.

Find:

while() {

Replace with:

while() {

Just upload ubb_poll.cgi from the zip if you've already installed, zip has been updated with the fixes.

I ran into a problem right away. In ubb_poll.cgi, it claims it couldn't find vars_memberlist.cgi on Line 21. I removed that line, and everything started tow work ok, but I get this Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 on the top of every page in the poll system. My Poll system is located at http://www.starfleetplatoon.com/BB/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=poll

Yeah Allen, that worked! Thanks so much.

Quick question though : Where it says poll, ID, etc., how can I get an image named table.gif instead of a color as the background for those cells.

it also shows up at the top of every page in your ubb, it's part of the ubb code. if you are running in english, you can most likely delete that from public_common.pl

you'll need to find the $MainButtons = qq! line in ubb_lib.cgi and add :

| $vars_wordlets_mods{polls_vote}


after the memberlist entry

Thanks Allen,

Couldn't remember which file controlled the links..now the question is how can I format them so its not one big line?

Secondly when in the Polls why am I getting:

Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8899-1

at the top of the page? I've removed this stupid character set from my style sheet and still it persists?

This is a sweet looking Poll setup, I have it installed but I am having 2 problems:
1) I am getting the "Content-Type: text/html" message in the Poll screens, but no where else in the UBB
2) Also after I made the poll, I voted with my user account (non-admin account) and it didn't count the vote, I logged off my account and logged in as another account and it counted theirs ; any ideas.
3)Also when trying to delete the poll through Control Panel - it says something about .cgi could no be deleted because it couldn't find it.

The poll looks great though, and thanks for all the hard work - I have been waiting for a poll forever.


Is that right?

My poll won't update - if someone votes, and goes to view it, everything says zero as if noone ever voted. Also - I chmod'd all files int the cgi-bin/poll directory to 777 and then it would count a vote. But the next time it wouldn't update, any ideas?

Thanks for the help
Erik

yes, somebody definitely needs to come up with a bug fix or solution as to why "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" appears above the main graphic after deleting the neccessary line from ubb_poll.cgi.

I'm too new to be intellegent enough to fix this.

also, after I vote, the next page it takes me to is pretty much blank except for that same "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" message, and a "Click Here" type line.

Very basic, but this poll is still very cool!

At this point, after we vote in a poll, is the next page supposed to be very generic?

Content-Type: text/html

Always in the top-left of the poll-pages.
VERY ANNOYING.

But prolly not worth to spend time on to fix it, since they have a newer version out.

Bad service...

Hi!

I installes this Hack, works great, but if just the Link to the Poll would show up! laugh

There is no Link showing up on my Main Page that links to the Poll.

And like so may others, part of that header tag appears at my board as well.

Can anybody help, please?

I just can't figure this out. The whole Poll System works great, the Link and everything is there, it's just that UBB does not show a Link to the Poll.

Should I just add a Link to the Poll in public_forum_summary.pl or would this not be a good Idea?

Please somebody help! wink

The Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 problem has to have something to do with the new files, obviously. I'm no wiz at Perl, but I know enough to get around UBBs. I'm going to try tommorrow to work it out, but I'd much rather have someone whos already solved the problem, or knows where to look lend a hand here...
