Does anyone know if the module that was being planned called 'CMA - Club Membership Administration' has had any work done on it since March this year (see it at ? Dev Xoops which suggests not).

If not, does anyone know of anyone else who is developing something like it (other than the membership module). Or, would anyone want to implement the features of CMA into the Membership module (which would make sense to me).

It is exactly what I need to regulate membership of F3 via the website. The Membership module, although feature rich in many ways, does not have all the functionality that I need, and CMA looked to have the features but has not been developed.

I have added a further suggestion to make this module even better! McNaz has got his hands full but he'll get lots of recognition for all this work!

Bizarre. Not heard of that before. Try deleting your new poll and starting another - see if that helps.

In additon, McNaz has recently hacked the standard Poll module to Version 1.1 which includes some useful features. You could try upgrading to that too (always backup first)

McNaz - thank you SO MUCH for doing this. I really do appreciate it. I will test it out later and feedback any suggestions\problems etc.

Apologies Rowdie for

a) getting your gender wrong and
b) not realising how involved you actaully are with XOOPS still! I am a fool. I've been a bit out of touch with the forums recently for one reason or another so I did not realise. Thinking about it, I do recall remember reading a few responses from you but last night it did not register.

And you might want to rephrase that:

Does Rowdie still get involved with XOOPS or has he gone elsewhere? Did he ever finish his work on the module I wonder?


A good point! Again, all I meant was during my time with XOOPS over the last few years many talented contributers have come and gone from Xoops. Predator springs to mind, but there are several others who went to other CMS projects.

I hope I caused no offence.

I seem to recall Rowdie was doing lots with the Polls module, or another kind of Polls module? I remember making several suggestions (including the one above) to him back then (about a year ago) but I forgot all about it and never heard anything since. Does Rowdie still get involved with XOOPS or has he gone elsewhere? Did he ever finish his work on the module I wonder?

Yes McNaz - please gor for it in a big way! You have my blessing! I too, like David, only have basic PHP coding abilities and am trying to learn.

If you have the time to spare it will be much appreciated. I'm amazed, frankly, that no one has thought of basing the polls mod on usernames before. It seems infintately sensible to me.

I will await (enthusiastically) your hacked info.

I am using XOOPS 2.0.13.2 with the standard Polls modules.

Thanks a lot

Thanks David

True, I had thought of that myself, but obviously mass voting is not acceptable either.

The only thing I can think of is to

a) disable the IP check
b) create\enable a username check by somehow assigning the vote to the User Name (and user ID which is unique). That way once the user has voted he can't vote again regardless of what machine he tries to use and regardless of whether he is or is not behind a default gateway.

Problem : I have no idea how to do it! Other than the fact that it won't be entirely anonymous, does anyone know how I'd do this?

Thanks

Serious Problem with Polls Module

Xoops 2.0.13.2 commercially hosted.

It's been a problem for a while (I think) the issue with the Polls module basing itself on IP addresses.

The problem with this is that anyone behind default gateways may talk to the Internet via one server and one IP address. So for example, organisation has 100 staff using an internal IP address range of 10.1.1.1 - 10.1.1.255 (255 IP Addresses) communicating to the outside world via one server with the external facing IP address of 82.199.10.10 (for example).

Once one person votes from that organisation of 100 staff using the XOOPS polls, no one else can vote from the same organisation because XOOPS logs 82.199.10.10 as the IP address. They would just receive the 'You have already voted' message.

Is there anyway to get round this? Is there any other module to get round it? A hack, anything?

I have an important voting process that is required for the election\re-election of a bunch of committee staff. We want to use the Polls module on the website to do the voting of about 1000 members split amongst several hundred individual organisations. The current Poll module will not enable this to be done in a democractic fashion.

And ideas, hacks, suggestions, alternatives...please???
