PollPlus is based on the "Poll" module by Giel Berkers, available from OpenCart contributions (http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route ... ion_id=245).

Improvements include: MVC compliant architecture, restructured administration (separating the module controller and list views), poll status (enable or disable, active or inactive), results page on the front end enabling customers to view results before voting. Multiple language support is also available, although English is the only language provided with this particular package.

Features: poll can be enabled or disabled while still remaining active. While enabled, voting is allowed, however when disabled, voting is not allowed, but module will display results. Only the active poll will be displayed and only one poll is allowed to be active at any time.

Includes a results page which displays the results as a list and as a pie chart.
Available from http://www.fido-x.net/index.php?route=p ... duct_id=52.

Got your PM. Don't know why the site's not sending emails, it was before I updated from 1.3.0 to 1.3.2. There might have been some changes in the mail function that I'm unaware of, or I've probably got something misconfigured. Thanks for letting me know.

That's the beauty of open source:

I create a simple poll-plugin, and other developers participate into making it a better product!

Sorry, my site's been down for that last day and a half as a result of a power failure due to "severe weather conditions" -- back on line now!

Giel, I wanted to send a copy of the PollPlus to you for your perusal before releasing, but was unable to find you in the member's list. Sorry if I've "stepped on your feet" (so to speak).

Oh no, you didn't step on my feet at all,

As a matter of fact, releasing the poll-module was also sort of an experiment for me too! Releasing the module in the wild, see where it goes, and it turned out great. Thanks for you effort making it a better poll.

Now what would be the best idea? To put pollplus as an update under my original poll in the contribution list or to make a new contribution for it?

Also, I could make a dutch translation file so we could include that is well! I'll take the English file of the pollplus you currently have on your website as a starting point for translating.

I'm glad that you feel that way.

Normally, I only make my contributions available from my own site, however, since this is based on your work (and includes some of your code), I have no problem with it being uploaded to the contributions site. As to whether to add it as an update to your original poll or create a new contribution, I think (even though I did pull yours apart and rebuild from the ground up) adding it as an update would probably be the way to go. I'll leave that for you to decide.

That would be good!

If you could post it as an update, that would be great.

I'll send you the dutch translation for inclusion. If you could PM me your e-mail address? Your setup looked great btw. I could use this way of installing instructions when I contribute more modules.

It would appear that there is a bug in the poll module that returns a "Page not found" error when on category or product pages (or anything that has an "ampersand" in the address line).

In "catalog/controller/module/poll.php", change line 30 from:

Code: Select all

header('Location: '.$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']);
to:

Code: Select all

header('Location: ' . html_entity_decode($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']));
This bug also appears in Giel Berkers' original poll module (from contributions). If you are using that, replace line 24 with the same code.

Will be fixed in the next release.
