New Poll and poll that expires

shawnmichaels — GMT

Hi,

I was wondering, if I have a poll that expires in 30 days, and then I create a new poll to automatically kick in when the other poll expires.

If I have it set to show the newest poll, would it show the newest poll after it expires, or when I create it?

How can I have it done to show a poll, and when it expires kick in to the next poll?

Here is my code
[code]

$poll_path = "/home/djshawnm/public_html/poll";

require $poll_path."/include/config.inc.php";
require $poll_path."/include/$POLLDB[class]";
require $poll_path."/include/class_poll.php";
$CLASS["db"] = new polldb_sql;
$CLASS["db"]->connect();

$php_poll = new poll();

$php_poll->set_template_set("popup");
echo $php_poll->poll_process("newest");

?>
[/code]

Thanks :)

I think when you put in newest it will use the latest created poll that it can and display that.
To set when a poll will expire from when it was created, you can edit the poll in the admin
area. I think the expire field in the number of days the poll will last.

Hi there,

This is what I want to do:

If poll 17 is set to expire in 2 weeks, can poll 18 automatically kick in when poll 17 expires?

What happens when there is poll that expires and the is not another one set?

Thanks
