I follow the instructions in the readme file, and I have added all the poll code, yet when I attempt to create a poll, I have no luck whatsoever. It says that a new poll is created but it does not do anything.

I have looked in the database, and while all the fields are there, nothing seems to be getting added when I post a poll.....

Unfortunately you haven't given me enough information to offer any assistance.

A link to your forum would be helpful.
A better description of your problem would be helpful:
- You say it says a new poll has been created, so that means you entered a poll question and answers and submited that info. What do you mean it does not do anything?

What database are you using?
What version of the forum are you using?

link to forum: ICE Forums

Ok, I click on the Add Poll link and get the post form [post.asp] for creating the poll. I fill it out and submit it. I get the return message that the poll has been created. I get a new message listed on the topic.asp page for that forum.

What I do not get is any entries into the database (I have checked), nor do I get a poll listed in the poll config page in admin. Here is a link showing the contents of post_info which is where I think the problem lies.

I have added all of the poll code to each of the specified pages. I am thinking that it has to be something with the SQL code, but I am not knowledgable enough to know what.

Please help....

Although you explained it a little more, I'm still not understanding.
Could you give me moderator or admin access to your forum so i can create a poll and see what the problem is? Or you can create a test account and make it a mod/admin.
ALso which forum would you want me to test the poll mod in? Don't really see a testing forum on your forum.

Can I see a txt version of your topic.asp file and post.asp file too.

You say you looked into your database and saw all the info there for the poll. Check also to see if T_ISPOLL is 1.

Done. Text versions in place:
topic.asp
and
post.asp

And, no, I said that I looked into the DB and saw that while the fields were all present that NO information was being saved to it. Nothing is making it into the database. That is what is frustrating.....

Found it.
In your post.asp file, lines 460 - 464, you have this bit of code:
<% ' ############# Poll Mod ################
if Request.QueryString("poll") = "1" then %>
<input name="poll" type="hidden" value="1">
<% end if
' ########################################## %>
There are 2 forms in the post.asp file. That code needs to be in the second form. You placed it in the first.
