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.

Trying to create a "Poll Only" forum, and this mod will help greatly, but is there a way to make polls mandatory in a forum, so people don't post regular (UN-polled) threads in it?

But the results are already seen....

What's funny is that when I went to the poll I saw everyone's post saying "This post has been hidden. You must vote in the poll to view this post.
Guests must log in or Register to vote
." and I was wondering why everyone was saying the same thing.... DOH!

The way yours is working is not how mine is working (4.2.1). On mine the poll result IS hidden, AND each post is completely empty (blank) until you vote.

There is no "This post is hidden..." notice.

No way I know of to make polls mandatory... Threads actually get posted first and polls added to them later, even on a live forum. The thread always precedes the poll. I suppose could be made to hide threads with no polls but it would be a different mod.

What about having the 'add poll' check box pre-checked off by default?

I think they are exempt from the poll rules.
