Miscellaneous Hacks - Unvote in Polls (Free Version) by BOP5 (Change your vote)

Brought to You By BirdOPrey5

Version 1.1.1

This is a mod that lets users "unvote" from a poll. After unvoting they are free to vote again so it effectively lets them change their vote.

You can specify whether users are able to unvote from closed polls or not. (By default they are not.)

This is the FREE version. It allows all users to "unvote" from all polls in all forums.

The GOLD version is available here: Unvote in Polls GOLD by BOP5

The GOLD version has 3 additional features:

• Restrict unvoting to specific usergroups
• Restrict unvoting to specifc forums
• Basic integration with points mods to reduce points or reputation after a user unvotes

This mod is compatible with all VB 3.8.x and 4.x.x versions released to date. I expect it will work with earlier VB versions as well but have not tested it.

There are several phrases for easy translation. Exact phrase info is in the info.txt file included in the zip.

Please Note:
If the "Unvote" link is "invisible" in your style (and it probably will be) add this code to your additional.css template:

#bop5unvote_link {color: blue;}

Where the "color" is any valid HTML or color code. Examples:
red, blue, green, #C0C0C0, #00FF00, etc...


Please Mark as Installed if you use this.

The misc.php plugin part does not redirect after unvoting on vb403. No idea if it works on vb4.1 but 4.03 needs to eval that code and needs the array() construct removed.

vb403 works:     eval(print_standard_redirect('bop5_uv_unvoted', true, true));
//vb403 fails:      print_standard_redirect(array('bop5_uv_unvoted'), true, true);

Thanks for the mod none the less, 'cos it works nicely now

[BirdOPrey5]

Thanks for posting the fix.
It does work on newer versions as is.

[s]Not working on my vB 4.2.0 PL2. Unvote link does not display and no permission error is given if I try to manually access misc.php?do=unvote. Can I request an update?[/s]

Embarrassing, I didn't notice I had to manually enable the mod in Options. Working now hehe.

[DirtRider]

Could you have not just added a button for the gold version as I hate having to manually edit anything

[BirdOPrey5]

A button for what? The "Unvote" link?

[DirtRider]

Yeah then you would not need to do manual edits at all

I have upgraded my forum to 4.2 now this mod no longer works

[BirdOPrey5]

Well it does work on 4.2.0 in general.

Are you sure the link isn't just invisible because it's white on white? Did you do the template edit to additional.css to fix that?

[Dwarden]

using it on 4.2.0 pl3 , but yes I needed to improve the templates to make it visible on all our skins ...
