I know a lot people wanted and asked for this, so here it is, just for you! (and me :))

Pretty simple actually.
This adds an option to the new poll screen (screenshot 1), that lets you choose between a regular poll (like it is now), or a multiple choice poll.
If the latter is selected, instead of radio buttons there will be check boxes (screenshot 2).

I also must say that installation is rather simple.
All you need to do is edit 2 files, and 1 template.
The rest is done automatically.
This is the place to thank Bane that generously let me use his great installer!

Without further ado, here's the installer:
Installer - just upload to your admin folder and run in your browser.
(note: all installation is reversable. uninstallation can be done from the installer)
For a small add-on (not included in the installer), please see this page.

First screenshot - new poll screen.

Second screen shot - show thread screen.

Installed and working great on talkloud :) Great hack sir!

I may have mentioned this

Screen Shot on Talkloud!

After Vote :D

but i see 2 votes but really it's one vote and 2 choices :D

Hmm, i've downloaded the hack but there seems to be a small error. The field "multiple" from table "poll" is installed incorectly: actually is inserted as "mulitple" by your installer. So, when voting MySQL will generate an error: "multiple not in field list". :)
I've fixed it by setting the correct field name in MySQL administration panel.

BTW, great hack :D

I'm confused, does the installer do EVERYTHING for us, or is there something we're supposed to do manually. I installed it, but I get no choice to create the other poll.

New installer (can't update first post).
Thanks. :)

drumsy, everything is on screen. What I can automatically is already done by the installer. You will need to do other changes to two files and another template.
