What does Logging do?  XML

Hi, I was just wondering what "logging" does in the Advanced Poll.

If you turn it off does that mean that only the IP addresses and browsers aren't logged, or are the votes not logged either?

logging allows you to view stats in the admin area for each poll.
when viewing the list of poll's in the admin are there should be 3
icons to the right side of the poll name/question find the one
labelled logging. For ip checking, go to gen. settings, near the
bottom. You can switch checking to ip table or no checking if i
remember it correctly.

Thanks for the info.

I did a test.

Logging lists IP addresses and browser and platform stats with the polls,
logging off only lists the votes, and no information about the voter.

IP check is, as I understood it, only an extra safeguard against multiple posts by the same poster (as cookies can be deleted).
