did you add this poll via newbb or via polls admin?

And can you describe in a bit more detail:
(Well, the actual poll is "gone" but the poll section is still there and you can still see the poll icon to the thread.)

also, have you enabled debugging
sysadmin=>preferences=>general settings
debug options dropdown menu...try phpdebug first.

I'll be on for a few..

if you have yet to make the changes I would suggest a much easier path...

go to administration
sysadmin=>preferences=>user info settings=>

on the bottom of the page set "display disclaimer" to yes and enter the text you want in the box beneath....

Much easier.

You will need to edit the afforementioned template file in order to add colored text beneath the disclaimer.

You can go to sysadmin=>blocks
below the block listing you can create custom blocks and enable them... (you would want to use center block to present a whole page)
OR
use a module like freecontent, ipages, tinycontent, etc.
Most of these allow you to upload a page to your server and then link it. Once linked, the module will wrap it in your XOOPS templates.

I prefer freecontent myself.

Check your system wide cache for the polls module, try setting it to no cache and see if your problem persists.
sysadmin=>preferences=>very bottom...
hope that was it.

Thanks for taking the time to read...

Using WS Project, I would like to have a client be able to log in and see all tasks relating to a given project.

WS Project currently ties UID to tasks and presents a listing of tasks associated with that UID only.

There is a checkbox in tasks which is labled PUBLIC. Common sense tells me that if I check this box, then any user allowed to access the module and blocks, should be able to see that particulat task EVEN though it is not assigned to them (because it is marked PUBLIC)... but alas, this does not seem the case.

Thought I would post here prior to contacting the author.

Any description of what that PUBLIC checkbox does in "tasks" (if anything) would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Trip

Hey,

Just a quick note that in Firefox browser, your top menu all but dissapears. You may also want to remove the graphic beneath your Vinyl Junkie banner as it peeps out on the right.

Content looks good.

as opposed to using bb code, which is hard coded to open a new window:
[URL=yourlink]LinkText[/URL]

use HTML to launch a link in the same window.
<a href="yourlink">LinkText</a>

you will need to use HTML formatting in the drop down box below the text area.

As far as changing the bb code function, it would cascade to additional areas where [URL] is used and may present problems. You could change the bbcode call and add a variable, but it's not worth the trouble in my opinion.

You can edit the page you would like to see alpha ordered and change the "orderby" variable [$orderby] to reflect what you want as default.

titleA = ascending (A-Z)
titleD = descending (Z-A)

Here is an example for the category view (disregard the cid, it will vary by your category setup) which calls viewcat.php.

yourdomain.com/modules/mylinks/viewcat.php?cid=6&orderby=titleD
in viewcat.php
find the line:

$orderby = "title ASC";

change to any variation of the http var value...you can see the http vars by hovering over the sorting icons (triangles) while viewing the page in question... insert the orderby value you want in the quotes of the line above.

BTW, I didn't try, but it should work fine.

Hope that helps.

You need to disable anon users from being able to create polls in the newbb2 admin area for the forum in question.
(where the group permissions are inside newbb admin, you will see create polls, uncheck it for everyone but webmasters).


I have yet to seriously investigate (as it's an RC) but my bet is that if you hit your site as ANON, and create a poll in the forum, it will create a poll, but when you try and view that poll it will appear with no questions or description.

Even while I am logged in as admin, every poll I create from inside the forum displays this behaviour. If I admin the polls module directly, I can see that the record was created (via create poll in newbb) without all data. While in the poll admin, I can add the missing data back to the poll and it will display correctly (at least in the polls module, have not tested to see if newbb2 will then display correctly as I just disabled polls in newbb until the next relelease).

I don't think there is so much a security issue, as something buggy in the poll functions (it has been noted that the poll section in newbb2 needs more work).

Try creating an anon poll via newbb and see if my predictions are correct. At least it should give you some peace of mind regarding newbb if nothing else.

The chat is a bit nasty though... see if it is calling the text sanitizer anywhere, if not you may be getting script injections.

set the value in the db to :

1

and post any errors back.

The default setting of 0 causes XOOPS to supress error reporting.
