vbWeightedPolls 1.0.0 - Votes weighted by usergroup

[hambil]

Keywords: poll, vote, weight, usergroup

Description:
Allows usergroups to have different 'weights' when voting in polls. A group with a weight of 5 would have five times the effect on the poll results as a group with a weight on 1. Weighted Polls are optional, and in addition to regular polls.

Great mod!

[thebassman]

I've got this installed, but the weighted voting doesn't seem to work... it's still treating all votes equally... any ideas?

[hambil]

Make sure it's enabled, and the checkbox is checked when creating a poll?

[thebassman]

Yeah... done both of those. Should mention I'm now running 3.6.0.

[hambil]

I haven't tested it with 3.6... so that could be it.

This hack is no longer supported and will not be ported to 3.6 by me. I leave it open for anyone in the community to take ownership of, as long as you have at least one hack so it is clear you can code. Just PM me.
