Hello all,

I've recentlly installed Advanced Poll and I'm trying to get it setup on my site. There are two issues that I am running into. First off, the poll adds votes whenever you refresh the page it doesn't just vote once is there a way to fix this?

Also, I have the poll in a bar on the right of my site. I have it so that it stays in the bar when you have the vote option but once it displays the results it stretches outside the bar. I got it to work while the vote is open by changing the default template poll view table to a width of 144, but I can't find the variable to do the same on the poll results. Any help with these problems would be much appreciated!!

Thanks!

Ok, I fixed it so that the poll results fits. However, I am still having the problem that the total votes continues to go up whenever you refresh the page. Any ideas?

Still having an issue where the poll continues to count up whenever someone refreshes a page and if you exit the window and reopen the page it will ask you to vote again. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Maybe consider selecting IP checking in Admin General Settings.

See item #5 of Auron's instructions In this thread:
  • http://proxy2.de/forum/viewtopic.php?p=10096

  • Also take a look at Auron's instructions here, which say the cookie expiration time should be the same as the lock-out time:

  • Search this forum. Use search strings such as:
  • poll AND votes

    poll AND reload

    poll AND refresh

    poll AND cookie

    poll AND IP
