What the difference from the old version ? I´m using the old code on my vBulletin 3.6.8 - works just fine.

Is there a way to put in side columns?

[ChurchMedia]

Clarification:
Looking at the code I don't see how this mod could show more than one poll at a time.
????

A modification you can make:
People may not know what the poll is about, so I added a small piece of code that will add a link to the thread for the poll.

You need to make the same change in TWO TEMPLATES -- the polloptions_table template and the pollresults_table template.

FIND:

$pollinfo[question]

ADD AFTER:

<if condition="(THIS_SCRIPT == 'index')"> (<a href="showthread.php?t=$pollinfo[threadid]">Go To Thread</a>)</if>

I occasionally do like to get some attention to important polls, but I'm not a big fan of posting the polls at the top of the forums like that. I much would rather there be a popup; similiar to new private messages; that tell the users there is a new poll requiring their attention.

Good job though.

It works, it's just disabled by default.

You need to go to AdminCP -> vBulletin Options -> Show Polls in Forumhome.
