I had the Poll MOD, version 2.05, successfully running on my forum. Just attempted to upgrade to the new version, 2.0.6.
That should involve uploading the new files pop_poll.asp & inc_poll.asp, plus making a couple of changes to topic.asp.
Is that correct?
After doing so, I still can't see how I can add forum code to the poll answers. I tried "manually," but the answers showed the tags, not the actual formatting ... just like the previous versions would.
What might I have done incorrectly? |

There were 2 changes to topic.asp you should have made.
Adding the formatStr() function around the vAnswers() array. When the answers are displayed before the users votes and after the user votes.
I had tested it before I uploaded the mod and know the changes I made work. You used the upgrade file correct? |

Yes, Davio, the upgrade download is what I used.
I combed through the changes I made on topic.asp, but can't see anything wrong. Of course, with the Events Calender installed, there is a slight variance at the beginning, but it seems it would be ok ...
Here's a text version: topic.txt. Maybe you can spot something? Begins at line 1213 - you'll see a bit of code for the EC just above that ... |

hmmm, you're right, bold and italics doesn't work. I only tried it with images.
Think I know what's missing...give me a few minutes. |

Ok, my bad. Sorry I didn't test this enough before upgrading it. Must be slacking in my coding.
There are 3 more changes needed to get forum code working with the poll answers.
In post.asp you need to find this bit of code and replace the code in green (this is all on one line. I broke it up for this post):for m = 1 to nCount
Response.Write "<font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strDefaultFontSize & """>" & _
m & ":<input name=""answer" & m & """ type=""text"" value=""" & Trim(chkString(txtAns(m),"display")) & "" & _
" size=""40"" maxlength=""100""></font><br />" & vbNewLine
next With the following code in red:for m = 1 to nCount
Response.Write "<font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strDefaultFontSize & """>" & _
m & ":<input name=""answer" & m & """ type=""text"" value=""" & Trim(CleanCode(txtAns(m))) & "" & _
" size=""40"" maxlength=""100""></font><br />" & vbNewLine
next In post_info.asp, look in the MethodType = "Topic" section. Find the following poll mod code and add the code in red (it's around line 988 in my file):for i = 1 to ubound(txtAns)
strSql = strSql & ", '" & chkString(txtAns(i),"") & "'"
strSql = strSql & ", " & 0
next Further up the same file, look in the MethodType = "EditTopic" section. Find the following poll mod code and add the code in red(it's around line 607 in my file):for i = 1 to CInt(Request.Form("count"))
strSql = strSql & "ANSWER" & CStr(i) & " = '" & chkString(txtAns(i),"") & "'"
if txtAns(i) = "" or chkString(Request.Form("resetpoll"),"SQLString") = "1" then
strSql = strSql & ", COUNT" & CStr(i) & " = " & 0
end if
...I will update the upgrade file in a sec if you get confused from these instructions.
If you guys can confirm that the changes work, I would be greatful. |
