} 


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

Unfortunately that doesn't work

Try this in place of previous code..

PHP Code:

$cccache = unserialize($block['configcache']); 
if (strpos($cccache['html_template'], 'block_sideblock_poll') !== false) 
{ 
   $fullblockid = 'sidebar_poll_1'; 
} 


After doing this, upload attached xml.

Great little widget, just what I was looking for.

[Kavada]

downloaded this looks great, but how do i move the poll to the top of my sideblock and how do i change the title of the widget to something other than "poll"?

[deverill2010]

I'm having a issue with this, I'm not sure if it's because I'm using the every where side bar. However when on the main forum page, if I haven't voted in the poll, the poll box gets wrapped around all the other boxes.
