    Voting In The Polls Question...

    Is there a way that I can set up my polls so that my members can vote more than once?

    Thanks.

    Vote on more than one option, or ballot stuffing?

        When creating the poll, select:-

        Options:

        [ ] Allow multiple choice: Give users the ability to select more than one answer.

          I can't see how to change this when editing a poll.


          I believe you can do so with this query:

          UPDATE poll SET multiple = 1 WHERE pollid = {x};



          where {x} is the pollid of the poll you want to change to allow multiple votes.

              Sorry, that is not a standard feature.

              It will require hacking.

              Try asking over at www.vbulletin.org

                Nobody over there has ever helped me out..

                Why does vbulletin even have a feature for multiple selections when that means you can vote on every category negating any logical reason for voting in the first place? lol

                What a terrific idea!!

                  Then don't allow multiple voting, simple.

                    Whenever something is too clever for the inventors of vbulletin to think up, they just sweep you under the rug and say "use a hack"

                    haha

                    Everything I need to do requires a hack or what?


                    Does removing every Private message link require a hack too?

                    How do I do it?

                    Thanks

                      Why are you insulting the intelligence of the developers?

                      If you ask for a feature that hasn't been implemented then you will have to ask over at www.vbulletin.org.

                      Why should the developers have to go back and redesign code just so 1 person can have a certain feature that noone else wants?

                      Its like saying to Microsoft, I don't like a certain feature on your OS can you remove it for me please.

                      Do a search and you will find that this argument has done the rounds before.

                      Have a nice day.
