@ Vadar: Yup, checked everything :/

@ evolver: That is a valid point, but it's a risk I'm willing to take

Please keep in mind that visitors don't have a name...

This means, that they can vote much more than just one time...
...making your polls completely unreliable...
(and don't even think about IP's, I have a different IP every day)

If you don't have much members and like your visitors to have more permissions...why not by just making the registration process very easy to your visitors?

You can give extra permissions to your members in groups,
and you can restrict permissions to new members if you want to...

Believe me, it will be much better that way...

And you say that you have checked in ACP - IM Portal - Blocks Management - IntegraMod Default - that the "View By" option is set to "All" and that you don't have any usergroup boxes checked on at the bottom of the block?

OK, I've gone and done that (again!) and noticed that the Vote part is keeping it's setting. It's defaulting to REG very time

Hi,

To double check your Poll forum settings, try going in to the ACP - Forum Settings - Permissions, and then selecting your Poll forum. Double-check that all of the settings are set up to allow visitors to View, Read, Post and Vote (that they are set to All) at a minimum.

Allowing non-logged in/registered visitors to vote in polls

2006-08-19T03:55:40-07:00

I've tried everything I can think of, but I can't seem to get my poll block set-up the way I want it.

Basically, I want anyone who visits the site to be able to vote in the polls there (because, unfortunately, only about 10% of my visitors are actual members ).

Can anyone help me please? I've set the permissions to the polls forum to allow ALL to vote and I've checked the settings in the IM Portal side for the poll. What else should I do?

Thanks.

Edit: the site is question is http://www.modus-operandi.co.uk
