Description
Hi Jacine, I just had a quesetion about the polls on your demo site. I am currently not using them, but was looking at it on your demo site. After I submit my choice the results are shown in the sidebar as well as the main content area. On the 'CONTACT' and 'BLOG' pages the results are shown in the sidebar. But on the pages 'HOME', 'SCREENSHOTS', 'FORUM', and 'EXAMPLE' the poll results are not shown (it shows me the original question like I can submit). Is this intended behavior or something that needs fixed?
Thanks,
Todd

Hi Todd,
That's definitely not the intended behavior :)
It doesn't have anything to do with the theme though. It has to do with caching and is an issue with the Poll module. I have the demo site set to cache pages (in Site Configuration > Performance). If I turned the cache off, it wouldn't happen.
There's info on the issue here: http://drupal.org/node/39432. It dates back to 11/2005. It appears that it's not fixed for D5 or D6.
Hope that helps :)
