FOR ALL WHO WANTS TO VOTE SEVERAL TIMES /W 1 IP...

HI

I also had the problem that I couldn't vote several times with one IP without deleting the cookies each time by myself out of the cookie folder. Now I have found the answer for this problem here in the forum. The problem is a bug in this version os Advanced Poll (at this tme v2.0.3)

First disable the "checking" function in the Admin Area under "settings" to "NO CHECKING"

Then you have to configure the file /templates/poll_cookie.php in the following way:
Search in line 19 for the string

if (!isset($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[$cookie_name])) {

and delete the first exclamation mark in that line. It should look like this now:

if (isset($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[$cookie_name])) {

Now you can vote a often as you want with one and the same IP number.
If want know, that a user can vote only one time in e.g. 3 hours just enable the "checking" function in the Admin Area under "settings" to "CHECKING" and set the locking timeout to 3 hours....

Works perfect.

Thanks for this solution to laelaps. You can read his posting here

Enjoy the Advanced Poll

I don't know why you would do that.
Just don't include the poll_cookie.php file and switch checking off.
(poll_cookie.php is in ./includes)
