Must Vote in Poll to Post in Thread VB4 · **Released**: 12-27-2010

Brought to you by BirdOPrey5 and kh99

Version 2.1

This mod will require users who want to post in a poll thread to actually vote in the poll before they are allowed to post.

The main code of this mod was developed by kh99 and I made it into an installable mod with options at his request.

Options include:

Turn mod on or off
Allow thread starter to reply without voting
Immune Usergroups - Usergroups who don't need to vote before posting.
Enable in All Forums - Yes/No (New in V 1.5)
Enable in Specific Forums Only (Updated in V 2.0)
Hide posts until vote (New in V 2.0)
Hide View Results link until vote (New in V 2.0)

Live Demo: http://www.qapla.com/mods/showthread...Vote-Poll-Test

Testing and working on VB 3.8.7 and 4.1.12 and am sure it will work on all 3.8.x - 4.0/4.x.x. It will probably work on 3.7 and maybe earlier as well.

If a user hasn't voted they will be given a message to vote before posting, see the screen shots.

The message displayed in hidden posts is the Postbit phrase: bop5_mustvote_hidden_message
The message a user gets if they try to post before voting is the GLOBAL phrase: mustvote2post

Full instructions in .txt file in zip file.

If you used the VB4 version you must uninstall the old 1.x mod before upgrading to 2.0

Please Mark as Installed if you use this.

Donations Always Apprecicated but please include kh99 in any donation. :up:

Tested and nothing, I don't get it.....
Using 4.1.0 pl2

Mod enabled, allow thread starter = yes (I am not threadstarter), immune usergroup 6 (tested with other user group), enable in all forums = yes.

Any ideas?

Can you give me a link to your forum and a poll?

Feature request: If you've been playing with the poll code, maybe you can figure out a way to allow users to change their votes? I see the current "vote once and never change your mind or correct an error" system as rendering polls useless.

BirdOPrey5 · #17 03-29-2011, 10:59 AM

That would be very different from the code for this mod.

I have chosen the option that a member can vote only once in a poll.
Can the user who has already voted and posted a reply, can again and again post replies ?

I'd love a reverse IE: Must Post in Thread to Vote in Poll

Once a user votes in the poll they can post in the thread as much as they want.

I like the idea of this but I'd rather you be able to select the thread in which you can't post without voting.
This sounds like it stops you from posting on any thread if you haven't voted in it's poll....

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
