I thought I'd posted this before, but can't find the thread, so...
There is a bug with the Multivote option on Polls. It enables a user to keep voting on a poll, effectively wrecking the results. I assume it's meant for being able to select more than one option, usually done with tick boxes but the radio buttons still show only allowing one selection at a time.

Thats the whole idea of the multi vote option, it's not to be able to select mutiple options, but to allow users to vote more than onces in a poll.

What's the point in that?  All people do is wreck the vote by keeping on voting over and over and over again.
On every other poll system I've come across, multivote means you can select more than one option e.g. "select all that apply".

This is what people asked for, and is what has been used in Web Wiz Forums for about 5 years. You are the first person in that time to mention that they dislike this method. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |
