Members Choice voting hack - V2 with usergroup permissions

I have eventually got around to porting and releasing this hack on vborg for vb 3.0.5

1 file edit
3 template edit
3 new db table

This hack uses and includes a copy of the [HIS] Hack Installer System (Build 3)
released by Link14716 and can be found here --> https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=71542


This is similar to the earlier version however i have mane some changes including the ability to run more that one polling booth at a time

The member who nominates another can give reason for nominating the person.
and then the nominee can add an acceptance speech.
Avatars are also displayed for both nominee and nominator.

A Tutorial for manual install can be found here https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=76050

UPDATE V1.1

missing phrases added
changed wrong phrase call in template
fixed db quirie to add the table prefix


UPDATE V1.2

Changed phrasegroup id due to conflict with another hack

Update V2
1. Booth auto close.
2. Add option for nominate to be able to vote for the person they nominated
3. Add option to deny admin from nomination.
4. Added usergroup permissions for
-- Who can vote
-- Who can nominate
-- who can remove nominees
-- who can see votes.
5) fixed some phrases
If you are upgrading please be sure to remove the "1" folder before starting the install of v2

Also, I guess I should mention that after the install, I cannot view the Members Choice Installation Edits

ok ... the edits are in the readme file

as for the phrases ... there seems to be a small bug in the his ... go to the phrase manager look for one of the custon phrases and select edit, then save without changing anything ..... all the phrases should work .... Enjoy!

Cool

I got all the edits in the txt.. Just making sure I wasnt missing out on any (if yer checking my site, I temp took out the navbar edit until this is working)

I edited a phrase and saved it.. Seemed to fix a lot.. http://forums.cincybengals.com/mc_pollbooth.php?
It definately is a step in the right direction...

BUT now when I nominate someone, it says this...

Could not find phrase 'mc_polling_booth_closed'.


I checked for that phrase and it does exist... Any ideas?

Thanks for your reply BTW

Ahh.. I didnt realize it was closed.. Sure, you should add something to come back and tell the user its closed rather than not finding a phrase...

BUT...

I tried it again on an open poll and it worked fine... THANKS!!!

FYI.. In admincp, I can now see 'Polling Booth Manager' when I expand the group it is in, but the group still is blank as KALL had back on page 3 of this thread...

Thanks for your help.. I should be good to at least readd it to the navbar and let users use it...

(If I wanted it to be above 'Who's online' where would I edit it in the navbar template?) <---This should be easy, I know, but I want to make sure I know.. I am a novice at all this...

Thanks again for your help.. Now go get some sleep!!!


*EDIT* - If you want members choice to be above who's online, just changing the instructions to add above it rather than below it works fine (in regards to the template mod of navbar.. I know most of you see this as obvious, but for novices like me, it may come in handy as whos online is VERY frequently used by everyone and having it at the bottom should probably remain so, since users are used to it

same here. I searched for and saved every phrase I could think of related to the polling booth and members choice, too, and nothing helped. Everything else works fine- just a blank category in the control panel:

Someone nominated me for an award, and everything worked, but the email I received had this as the subject...

'Could not find phrase 'mc_nomination_email'.'

Also.. How many nominees do you need before the vote begins??

hmm, when you search for the 'mc_nomination_email'.' phrases there should be 2 of them, 1 in the email body phrases and 1 in the email subject phrases .... if you are missing them i think i has quoted them in one of my posts on the 1st or 2nd page of this thread.

as for the admin navbar issue ... check that the phrase is in the control panel gloabal phrasegroup and that the varname and the script is the same spelling.

ALL nominations must be filled before anybody can vote
