Hi,

I am trying to migrate a WBB-Forum to VB. Occasionally, we run into the situation that we need a poll, where people can vote for more than one option. Let's say, there are ten options to choose from and all users should be able to vote for four of them and not more.

That was not a problem in WBB 2.3, but even though it is much more advanced, I can't find a way to achieve that in VB4.0. Is there some addon which modifies the voting system or something like that?

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

You set it when you create a Poll I just did this not 10 minutes ago on my forum VB 4.0.4

I believe this is a misunderstanding. You can allow multiple votes, but you can't limit them to let's say four. If you have ten options and multiple votes enabled, users may vote just for one or even for all options.

What I need is some way to limit the number of options that can be voted for in a poll. Valid example with a maximum number of votable options:

[x] a
[x] b
[x] c
[x] d
[ ] e
[ ] f
[ ] g
[ ] h
[ ] i
[ ] j

Invalid example:

[x] a
[x] b
[x] c
[x] d
[x] e
[x] f
[ ] g
[ ] h
[ ] i
[ ] j

In WBB it was possible to create such polls, unfortunately I haven't found a way to map them to VBB yet...
