I'm thinking about those things too.
I haven't decided whether a listing of the voters' names after each poll choice (and its percentage) would be be better (but maybe clunkier-looking), or maybe a second loop through all the choices again after the percentages are shown (cleaner, but maybe less cohesively displayed).
I'm trying to hack something together on a test box, and it's coming along, slowly. If I am satisfied with it at some point, I'll show you my ideas if you like.
I thtought about this a little more in depth with the people for whom I would be developing this plugin and it turns out for the polls the anonymity is not such a big deal.
Really what they want is some kind of RSVP plugin - who is going to attend what events and how many people are they bringing.
They like the look and feel of this polls plugin however, so I think I'm going to rely on it heavily for inspiration and derive a new plugin from it to allow event organizers to
That last point is probably the most important one. They need to allow users to change their responses. Actually, now that I think of it, in my little discussion group there was a demand for users to be able to change their votes.
So maybe there are several topics here:
(a) optional anonymity in the polls plugin
(b) vote variability (users can change their mind and overwrite previous poll responses)
(c) an RSVP plugin containing aspects of both a and b and its own stuff.
Sounds like a fun little project for me. :-)
What you are talking about is a "survey" vs. a poll.
if i try to edit poll with cyrillic characters, bbpress saves it in wrong codepage
something like �е�е
huh
Is this plugin working for anyone that is using 1.0 stable?
I just downloaded 1.0 stable and set it up on my test box and this plugin seems like it's working with one exception: starting a new topic and adding a poll to it right at the beginning doesn't seem to work - there's no "Save" button to save the poll into the topic and saving the topic doesn't save the poll along with it.
But adding poll to a new topic after-the-fact seems to work like a champ so far.
Hi CK, I am aware that you are not updating any plugins for a while which is fine by me... you probably need a break! So seeing as you wont make any edits can you tell me what this means...
This is the message I get when trying to use NightGunners BBPM plugin, it only shows up when I have your BBPress Polls plugin activated...
Warning: include() [function.include]: Filename cannot be empty in /home/harrismarine/harrismarine.co.nz/bbpress/bb-includes/functions.bb-template.php on line 45

I would love to keep using your Poll plugin as my users love it and yes I am using the updated version of BBPress and it is too alte to go back as I have made a lot of changes.
If you find the time to reply I will appreciate it very much ;) Keep up the good work.
_ck_ the poll only display on first page of post , can it is display on all of page ?
Hi _CK_ great stuff. I was wondering how I can separate topics with polls from topics without polls in my code, so that I can have two separate panels in my layout. The [poll] part was what I wanted to use, but it does not show up when I use get_topic_title(). Any Ideas?
CK can you update this so it works with 1.02?
Marius-: Unfortuantely, _ck_ is not around anymore. This plugin will not be improved anymore. Watch out for v1.1 of bbPress - it may include this functionality.
Can this plugin be downloaded anymore?
Sorry for bumping this. But this plugin was added recently on the forum I moderate and I along with the other moderators are curious if there is a way to add an edit/delete function to the poll. Because without one the only way to do so is to delete the thread.
Submachiner, do you get a "Save" button present, during topic creation?
Yup.
Damn, good for you, but bad for me.
Could you please take a picture of it? With the savebutton?
I want to use this plugin, but theres no save button when adding a poll during the creation of a topic.
Is there an option to allow non registered users to vote?
ie. making it a public poll?
I sugest a small corect in plugin code, it could be used for people who want to translate polls:
In line 165 and 200
$output='<div class="poll_question">'.__('poll').'...
Word 'pool' could be added to dictionary in administration.
Thanks for very good plugin!
Hi. This is a great plug-in, exactly what I needed. One question, is it possible to add code to have the poll results show who voted for what? I need something like that to track my users' votes.
Thanks, Greg
GregAl, I've hacked up the bbPress Polls plugin to do just that. It's ugly, codewise, but it works for my purposes.
Drop me an email using cliff at cliff1976 dot com if you like and I'll respond with my hacked-up version of this plugin.
