Advance Poll - vote without showing results?

Anonymous — GMT

Is there a way I can have an advance poll on a page so that after a person votes, they can't see the results until I post them at a later time?

If that's not possible, can I at least get rid of the "view results" link underneath the poll so that they can't see the results before they vote?

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Returning a Thanks for Voting Message

Anonymous — GMT

I need to modify Advanced Poll 2.03 so that it returns a "Thanks for Voting" message in place of the poll. This lets the responder know they have voted.

The poll is gathering marketing information, so we don't want to display the results to the public. I can make a separate page to view the results, that seems easy enough.

But I can't figure out where to patch the response to not include the post.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Ok, I found how to not show the Result after Voting!

But then the Vote won't be counted
But the message "You already have voted" is shown when I refresh the site!

ARGG!

I will look into this on Thursday night if Auron has not answered.

[code] if ($action=="results" && $poll_id==$poll_ident) {
return $this->view_poll_result($poll_id,0);
} elseif (!$is_active) {
return $this->view_poll_result($poll_id,0);
} elseif ($is_active && $voted) {
return $this->view_poll_result($poll_id,1);
} elseif (!$voted && isset($option_id) && $action=="vote" && $poll_id==$poll_ident) {
$this->update_poll($poll_id,$option_id);
return $this->view_poll_result($poll_id,0);
} else {
return $this->display_poll($poll_id);
}[/code]
thats the part of the code in class_poll.php that tells it what to do once you have voted. Well part of it does. Some of the code makes no sense at all. I beleive the line that tells it to show the results after posting is
[code]return $this->view_poll_result($poll_id,1);[/code]

So taking this line away you won't be redirected to the results?

I'd say thats the line you'd need to change to something else.

taking it away what will happen?

Nothing. They would vote and then nothing. Could try replacing it with
[code]echo ("");[/code]
Replacing YOURSITEHERE with your sites address.

I'm still not clear on how to stop displaying results when voting and return a "thanks for voting" message.

Would someone kindly post which files to edit to make the thank you appear?

Thank you so much!
