Anytime a user posts a poll there’s a box with a question mark next to it. Same box for when you try to add a poll.

Is this normal or is there a better graphic I can insert for the poll? The blue box looks like an error.

Functionally the plugin works fine.

Thanks!

Do you have a SS or link to what you are referring to?

I can’t see what you’re talking about and just added polls to mine.

I suppose a link might have helped

The top post shows the box http://kingscast.net/forums/

[@dawormie Member 15 years, 7 months ago]

I can’t see it on there. At least no question mark.

I’m using FireFox if that changes anything.

I couldn’t see what you meant while using Firefox… but I switched to Safari for the Mac, and see blue boxes with question marks!

I think Safari shows that blue box with the question box when it can’t load an image. I found a discussion forum that talked about it here – there are some links to screenshots showing the issue:

I right-clicked on the blue box and asked to view the icon… and it showed me this image url:

Is it possible there’s a missing file? My version of bbPress polls displays an icon with a similar url when there’s a poll:

http://boards.weddingbee.com/my-plugins/bbpress-polls/icon.png

http://boards.weddingbee.com/view/polls

My guess is that if you move your icon.png file to under /bb-plugins/, the image will show up and your blue boxes will disappear?

bb-polls should be in it’s own sub-directory with the icon.png inside of it.

You must have installed the plugin and not copied the icon over from the package.

[@johnhiler Member 15 years, 7 months ago]

Ah that must be it… kingscast, did you drag all the files directly into the /bb-plugins/ folder?

The files should all go into a /bbpress-polls/ subfolder instead… including the icon.png one.

ps while you’re at it, you probably want to put the plugins into a /my-plugins/ folder instead of the /bb-plugins/ one…
