redo cp_wordlets.cgi as per updated instructions - there was a missing single quote. smirk

ok that fixes that problem -

there was one other item which causes problems too -

With the MOD, as is, the Primary Settings menu turns up blank

this line of code is added:
code:
Code

document.writeln("<option value="$vars_config
{CGIURL}/cp.cgi?ubb=vars_poll&r=$ran"> - Poll Settings</option>");



The syntax does not match the other menu options in that section of cp_common.pl. If the two " are removed the menu works just fine.

Resulting in the code looking like:
code:
Code

document.writeln("<option value=$vars_config
{CGIURL}/cp.cgi?ubb=vars_poll&r=$ran> - Poll Settings</option>");



Thanks again for a great MOD!

hola!

Just installed... pretty straightforward even tho it takes pert near a week to do Looks nice tho.

When trying to add a poll to a forum, everything seems to go well up until I click on submit to add the poll. I then get this error:
quote:

FYI
The form you submitted appears to be incomplete!
You did not complete: message


» Please use your browser's back button to return.



A pretty generic error message, but all fields have been filled out, including the message. Any ideas?

"view source" on that text if your browser tries to run it as html... you'll see what I mean.

here's the install file text to correct that problem, I still haven't found what's the deal with the previous problem where I get:

ok thanks Allen, instructions in zip updated. now as for the other problems, this is a weird one. when i originally moved the poll options page to a page after the post a new topic page, i was getting the same error. i was reproducing all the %in values from the previous (post topic) form as hiddens, but for some reason it only would look at the first 3 of them, then ignore the rest. i fixed it by hard coding the forum (f) hidden as the first one then putting all the rest. now i dont know why its popping up again, cause it works perfect on my test board. so as soon as i can figure out how to replicate it again ill get it fixed. or if you have any ideas of course.

take a look for yourself, you can search for $post_data_from_in in ubb_poll_lib.cgi and public_new_poll_form.pl

no, i mean, that you can vote for two or three things....not only for one thing

~;
} ## end for loop


with:

quote:
or ($i=0; $i<=$poll_data{choice_total}; $i++) {
$id = "choice_$i";
@choice = split(/||/, $poll_data{$id});
$ubb_poll_options .= qq~
~;
} ## end for loop



Then in public_poll_display.pl replace:

A couple of small bugfixes. I was having problems with the option text being really really tiny, as well as the view results and edit poll links. This fixes that problem.

In ubb_poll_lib.cgi replace:

quote:
or ($i=0; $i<=$poll_data{choice_total}; $i++) {
$id = "choice_$i";
@choice = split(/||/, $poll_data{$id});
$ubb_poll_options .= qq~
  $choice[0]
  $choice[0]

$vars_wordlets_polls{ipolls_view_results}


$vars_wordlets_polls{ipolls_comments}
  



$vars_wordlets_polls{ipolls_edit_poll}


with:
quote:


$vars_wordlets_polls{ipolls_view_results}



$vars_wordlets_polls{ipolls_comments}
  



$vars_wordlets_polls{ipolls_edit_poll}

Ok the bug preventing posting of polls is finally fixed, thanks to Ramirez for testing for me. smile

redownload the zip and upload the following 3 files from it:
ubb_poll_lib.cgi
public_new_poll_form.pl
public_poll_display.pl

Yep... Just a suggestion, to show the subject when somebody votes.

In ubb_poll_lib.cgi
[code][/code]

Also, some parts aren't Worldetized, like this one, and your package includes vars_wordlets_mods.cgi

Other than that, it works great

Another thing, you don't have to &set_page_elements in ubb_poll_lib.cgi and public_poll_page.pl, otherwise there will be 3 in the topic (like "UBBDev.com: : : Windows or Mac?")

Also, it's not so secured.

Fix:
In ultimatebb.cgi:[code][/code]
Also, ubb_poll_lib.cgi should censorcheck/checkhtml the subject, and censor/html/Graemlin™/UBBCode check the poll options. Can I post an updated ubb_poll_lib.cgi?

Hey jordo, is there anyway to do an anonymous poll? Or atleast make it so that, if desired on a certain poll, you wouldn't be able to see the results without looking at the data files directly? One of our webmasters asked about this, so I thought I'd ask you.

Greetings!!!

I get the following error when I goto my forum:

An error has occured:


package 'vars' not registered for warnings at Modules/AutoLoader.pm line 4


Please inform the board administration of this error so that they may fix the problem. Thank you!

Ideas?

Ok, now it has gotten worse, I did in fact back up my files.....Restored them till I got an answer on the above, and I am still getting the same error....
Do you suppose this is server side?

Yo Jordo. Other members can view the edit poll even whenever they weren't the creator of that poll.

LK - thanks for the tips, a few things got missed in the upgrade to 6.1.0 and wordletizing. ill sit down later today and fix em and a few other things ive been meaning to fix. smile

afterlab - only admins and mods (of that forum) can edit the polls. the poll starter cant (because you can change # of votes).

would it be possible for me to add a poll button beside the new reply button, and then make a new template file just for the poll? Would it require much work?

Bookie - it would require a number of modifications in addition to the template. its set up to be integrated with normal posting routines. its not impossible or anything, just might take a little work. and to enable polls in whichever forums you want go into your CP and under primary settings, there is a Poll Settings option. from there you can set what forums allow polls, etc.


zips updated with some fixes. smilies are now allowed in poll titles (not in options though). and checks for html as well as query method are done. i also cleaned up the code in the poll_lib and got everything in that file wordletized.

to upgrade, simply reupload vars_wordlets_polls.cgi, and ubb_poll_lib.cgi, then rehack ultimatebb.cgi.

Another question Jordo. Is it possible to have the last post time updated when a vote is made instead of just when comments are made? It could be easy to lose a poll in a high-traffic forum even if it's getting votes, if noone is making comments.

Jordo,

I just installed the hack..by the way great improvement from 1.4

Anyway, everything works great except when i try to delete a poll, i get this:

Code
code:

Any ideas? I looked through ubb_topic_maint.cgi, and everything seemed to be ok.

TedBrown - does that only happen when you try to delete a thread with a poll, or when you try to delete any thread? if only threads with polls, try removing the one thing this hack adds to ubb_topic_maint.cgi and see if it still gives that error.

Maybe it was posted/fixed before, but there is a bug with quotes in posts:

Fix in ubb_poll_lib.cgi:
Code
code:
I'm using the first beta because of many changes (like to use member numbers instead of names in topic.poll, check for many things, etc), but I don't think it's fixed also in the current one.

[edit: replaced " with " so you can see it. it automatically translates it to " otherwise]
