Site Survey problem

[bbalegere]

I had enabled site survey in my IntegraMOD test site.
The poll is being displayed correctly but when a registered user clicks on submit vote,the user is taken to the page where the Poll is posted.
The user's vote is counted only when he clicks on Submit Vote again in the forum where the Poll is posted.

I do not want this to happen.I want the vote to be counted right at the beginning when the user clicks on Submit Vote from the portal itself.
I do not want to show the users where the poll is posted and I do not want them to Click on Submit vote twice

Can anybody help me?
here is the test site

Wow! this is like the third poll problem I've read today. I'm thinking the poll needs a sticky somewhere or something b/c alot of users are having problems w/it. Self included <img>

I used to have that problem too. A fix was posted on im.com but that's not available now.

I found where I had a folder on my computer with edits to only two files to fix the polls. However, it didn't have a step-by-step to follow, just updated files.

I applied the fixes back in March. I don't have the poll issues anymore.

I've made available my two files that were edited. They are straight off my site that is functional. Backup things and use at own risk.

Yes I used to have this problem as well. And don't remember if or waht I did, but I do not have it anymore.

It has not helped.
The issue still remains.

It seems that the poll block itself has options like so:
<input> </td>

and the poll forum post has them like so:
<input> </td>



This could be the cause, and I will post again when I rectify this if it fixes the poll issues

[JenniferD]

inside ./templates/fi_subice/portal_poll_ballot.tpl

find (on or about line 11)
<td><input> </td>

replace with
<td><input> </td>

end

fixed

Remember to do this for all template files. One file, one edit, and it works perfectly for me now.

[bbalegere]

Thanks a lot
It works properly now

Nice job JennD.

I am just glad it was an easy fix. I had literally just implemented the poll block on the portal page, saw that happening, came here.

about 3 hours start to finish... and my site is becoming more heavily modified daily.

Most of these mods are more than likely fixes, which are applied in 141.

Hello! There isn't display vote button

Hello! There isn't display vote button

When you let guests vote, it won't recognize if they have already voted in the past...
Meaning: They can vote endless times...making the votebox completely unreliable.
Even if it could recognize an IP...
With my ISP, I have a different IP after every boot...
So I don't think that making votes possible for guests is a good idea...

Alternative: Put all your registered users in groups with all the extra options/permissions that you want them to have...
And give visiters an easy way to register...
By not putting registered visitors in groups like the others, you can make them not have the extra options/permissions...then you can also make votes possible to them...

To make guest-votes reliable,
it would need a much more sophisticated MOD...
One that combines the recognition of IP's and writing cookies...
But even then...(cookies can always be deleted)

Yeah okay, thank you! <img>
