Hey,
with the poll feature, how often is each member allowed to vote? Only once? Or once every day? If it is restricted, is it restricted to once per member, or once per IP address?
Cheers

2 options:
either you let only the registered users vote, then every user can vote once, or you let everybody vote, then every IP can vot once.

I found out that 6.5 had a bug whereby members could vote multiple times, as long as they had a different IP address each time they voted - it restricted based on IP address rather than by member. Also, if you allowed anonymous members to vote, it then restricted by member, meaning that anonymous users couldn't vote at all, even if you wanted them to.
I just installed 6.5.1 and am having the same problem, although it could be that I retained a few files from 6.5. Anyone know what was changed in 6.5.1 that supposedly fixed this problem?

in 6.5 the option for IP/UID in the control panel is switched. Bug in template. If you dont update set it contrariwise. This Bug is fixed in 6.5.1b4 and above. 6.5.1 runs well. If running 6.5.1 now please check your poll settings again.
After I run 6.5 I have to clean out my poll table with phpmyAdmin. I delete all IP votings (I allow only voting for UID).

Thanks.
Which template exactly was changed that fixed this problem in 6.5.1?
