Just checking if poll is broken all over the forums or whether it's particular subforums.

Re: Test
Hmm. I checked the browser thing; and the doing things first thing. I'm starting to wonder if it's to do with forum permissions. One of phpBB3's few flaws is that it separates out forum permissions and moderatorship - and so, for example, Craitman gave me moderatorship over the Economics subforum, but I can't make things sticky, because my forum permissions haven't given me the ability to make things sticky.Colonel Vilhelm wrote:Works absolutely fine for me, as always.
Now it so happens that there are ways you can set it so that people can create polls; so that they can vote in polls; and so that they can change their vote in polls; as three separate settings within user forum permissions. I'm wondering if, for some bizarre reason, registered users are set "can't vote in polls" but Staff (or even Apollo Staff) are; which would explain why Vilhelm can but others can't. However, Guido being able to vote throws that theory off a bit. But I would suggest to anyone with access to the admin panel to have a look at forum permissions and see what that shows regarding polls.
