Poll options
OP - June 15, 2010, 08:56 PM

Could we expand options on the polls, specifically:

1. Option to allow users to select multiple poll options at once, not just one.

2. This one I've mentioned before-- option for a public poll, where it will show who voted for what. I know you think this is a bad idea os, but I mean, if people don't want their poll preferences shown, no one's got a gun to their head forcing them to take the poll. Plus, like I mentioned before, on forums I've been on where this option does exist, it is very rarely used by the person creating the poll.

Thank you for your consideration.

fuck you

Not sure exactly what you mean by 1/

2/ is certainly possible. It wont be happening immediately though. I'd rather leave any more changes until after we upgrade the software once the new version is stable.

I think he meant that in the JOTM poll I could have voted for Athiest.pk and Yeezeevee at the same time. Right Q?

Yeah but you can do that already so I think he means something else. Not sure.

When setting up the poll you have this: "Poll Options: Maximum votes per user."
You can enter any number in that box.

Ok cool, I bet Qman did not know about it. Or if he did then he must have meant something else then.

Go for it. We can always edit them later or remove them, but a test thread to play with the options is fine.

Q, 1/ should be sorted now.

ETA: Nope it isn't. I know what the problem is though. Shouldn't be hard to fix.

When do you think that will be. What benefits will the new software bring e.g. does it have a spellcheck?

Not exactly sure when. Shouldn't be all that long though. It doesn't have a built-in spellcheck. This version does allow using a php spellcheck if that is installed on your server but our server doesn't have it. Mind you, that's only a problem for IE. Hopefully Microsoft will grow a few brain cells before releasing IE9. IF they don't then they deserve to be shot.
