Looking good so far. I have it working on blogs (latest version) and on postbit legacy, 3.8.4... hopefully it will auto generate on the first of the month, I have it set for monthly. Will report back on 10/1/09.

Same here, everything looks and works great...but wonder if things will go right at the beginning of October...

Thanks for confirming that it works with VB Blogs & postbit_legacy. Please click "Installed" to show your support & receive support ;)

Just wondering, if you have joint nominations, do both nominations recieve the award, Also when someone nominates a thread should the poll be open for everyone to vote in, or are they supposed to nominate the thread also?

If you're talking about nominations ties, this mod accounts for that up to 3 winners. If you want to limit users/ usergroups able to receive nominations and users/ usergroups able to give nominations, there are settings for that in VB Options > Topic Nominations.

Something strange has happened!!

I just went to chek the topic of the month thread and the poll seems to have well gone!

All the threads are still marked as nominated tho, but nothing it appearing in the poll!!

And just test nominated another post and it didnt come up in the poll

Also, if someone nominates a topic, where it says "Multiple Choice Poll. Voters: 20. This poll is closed"

The number 20 will go up, but the poll will still be empty

First, make sure you are looking at the right thread/poll (ie: the most recent one vs. an older one). If so, you can refresh the poll by going to: ACP > Nominate Topic > Refresh Poll Thread.
If this ever happens again, you should set your Topic Nominations options to the default settings in the xml; see the bottom of the xml file and look for values between <defaultvalue> tags (reinstalling the xml will not reset the option values).

I tried the refresh, nothing happened will try to set the default options...If I can...where do I find the xml file?

Also could it be becuse there are more that 10 threads nominated?

I made an effort to make the automatic & manual contest finalizations more reliable & intuitive than the previous versions. I don't foresee any problems, but nothing is bug-free....

The xml is the file that you used to install this mod. The settings in VB Options should correspond to those listed in the xml file in the same order as the xml's displayorder attribute. It may take some time to do this if you're not used to reading xml files.
