Awesome, that did it - thanks

Anybody having problems getting this to work with 4.2?

My polls are coming up empty

[edytwinky]

I just figured out the issue. I tried the poll block with each forum and it doesn't seem to work with particular forums. One forum has numerous polls in it and doesnt return a poll, just comes up blank, would this cause the issue?

perfect now thanks !

i want to use this on a custom template and not on sidebar (template name: RightSidebar)..

how can i do this?

[deverill2010]

Is this working ok on 4.2? I see a couple of people have had a few issues?

[deverill2010]

I've installed this and I have the 'everywhere sidebar mod' installed - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=233871

Your poll block is only showing on the activity stream and no where else for some reason?

Bump Badshah93's can you answer my question please. I'd appreciate it.

You will need to edit one plugin of Everywhere Sidebar Mod.

Open Plugin "sidebar_global"

Find: (3 times)

$fullblockid = str_replace('sgdiscussions', 'sgnewdiscussions', $fullblockid);

Add After it:

PHP Code:

$cccache = unserialize($block['configcache']); 
if (strpos($cccache['html_template'], 'block_sideblock_poll') !== false) 
{ 
   $fullblockid = 'sidebar_poll'; 
} 


I haven't tested it but i expect it to work.
