Advanced Poll Options
 

This product is the result of a request from SilverBoy posted here:

vBulletin 4 Request - Poll checks


This product allows you to designate certain usergroups whose members will have access to the advanced poll voting permission options that you select as active. These advanced options are on a per poll basis, that is, each poll can have its own set of advanced permission settings. The setting from which you can choose are:

Minimum Post Count: Users will be required to have at least the designated number of posts before being able to vote on polls.
Minimum Length Of Membership: Users will be required to have been a member of the forum for at least the designated number of days before being able to vote on polls.
Recent Post Requirement: Users will have to have posted during the last number of designated days before being able to vote on polls.
Reputation Points: Users will be required to have at least the designated number of reputation points before being able to vote on polls.
Infraction Points: Users will be required to have no more than the designated number of infraction points before being able to vote on polls.
User Groups: Users will be required to be a member of at least one of the designated usergroups before being allowed to vote on polls.

As of version 2.0, you now have global settings that will apply to all polls, and can only be overridden by users with access to the advanced options.

A user who has access to these advanced options, will see them when creating/editing a poll as follows:

Good job my friend :)

If you'd like any changes, please let me know. :)

OK, let me test it and tell you if there is any thing ;)

I should have mentioned, all of the text on the new advanced options (the titles and descriptions) is phrased so you can translate, or change it as you see fit. Just look for global phrases that begin with:

markfl_advancedpolls

:D

Don't worry about this ;)
I have translated my forum till vb1.1.3 and 1.1.5 days (2001) ^_^

I tried to add a poll, and use only usergroups option and let other options blank, then I get this MySql error

I found the bug ..

in (Save Advanced Options For New Poll) plugin you forget to add (,) between reputation and usergroups.
the code must be like this

Another issue, when trying to delete any thread even if it didn't have a poll I get an error message

Another issue, the system didn't let unregistered users to vote on the poll even if I add unregistered group to the group list that can vote if I disabled it in the usergroup global options (usergoup seetings) and in forum permissions.
