I use Advanced poll 2.0.3. on my website.
Our website uses three languages and I use <include virtual> in order to include the main Wordpress page in each homepage (every language).
For example: the english version can you find here: http://www.perfusion.be/en.
I use http://www.perfusion.be/poll for the poll.
I can see the poll on my main page (on the three languages), but I can't vote or see the results, because the buttons are pointing to the wrong directory...

Can somebody help me please?

I added ../poll/ to my template, but now I'm linked to the following page: http://www.perfusion.be/poll.
All I see are demos (and they don't work)...

Here are Auron's instructions for setting up the poll and some other posts which explain that you must put the poll code on one of your pages that you want the poll to appear on:

Advanced Poll v2.02 -- Installation / Instructions..
http://proxy2.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2067&highlight=poll

Advanced Poll

Trying to get polls working on my site
http://proxy2.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3455&highlight=poll

Here are some instructions for uploading. I only post this because I am not sure why the path to your poll directory takes you to the demo.

I use the database version...
I didn't uploaded the files myself.
Advanced poll is a extra add-on script on the control panel of my host (http://www.jaguarpc.com).

The demos don't work because:

  • Poll ID 1 does not exist. Poll ID 2 does not exist.

  • Go into your admin panel and set up 2 polls, and the demos should work.

    http://www.perfusion.be/poll/admin/index.php

    However, you do not want these demos to be visible because when I look at them, I can see your username.

    I now see that this is the way the database version is set up. In the poll directory there is a file called index.php. It is calling for the demo 1 polls.



    If I were you, I would change this. (Create the page you want your polls to appear on and link to that. Polls can be added to an existing page (see example at: http://www.thepraisegates.net/ThePassion.php) or put on a separate page (see example at: http://www.thepraisegates.net/modules.php?name=OpinionPolls for an example.) Then edit the poll/index.php file to call up the page with your actual polls on it or you can make the index.php page blank.

    I have set up two polls, but they get immediatly number 3 and 4.
    In my list, I don't see 1 and 2.

    Then edit the poll/index.php file to call up the page with your actual polls on it or you can make the index.php page blank

    Where can I see my actual polls (by default)?

    I visited your site and see the poll. Your web page is .shtml which is probably why the poll doesn't work. It was designed for .php

    Somewhere on this forum someone posted instructions for using the poll in a .shtml file. You should do a search. Try entering poll AND shtml in the search box at the top of this forum.

    Yes, it's indeed shtml.
    But the original code is on the following page: http://www.perfusion.be/b2/index.php
    Even on the original page (above) I can't vote or see the results...

    I may have been wrong about the index.php file, since I am not using the database version. I think you should try to contact Auron and see if he is available to help you. If you click on his username on any of his posts you might be able to send him an email.

    I tried to install the database version (not by using the cpanel of my host, but by using FTP): there was no difference.
    After this, I tried to upload the text version, but it still gives the same problem.

    Is it a problem because I don't call the script in the root folder of my website (but in three different subdirectories: one for each language)?

    Finally used an IFRAME (I don't like it ) but it works...
