Hey,

This might not be a bug since i'm using this module first time and could be just misunderstanding how it works.

installs ok, shows in module list
checked permissions, ok
created content type, ok
can seen and edit the poll options, ok
can attach the poll to a content type, ok
basic poll enabled, works ok.

---> BUT -->

When i've created content, i cannot get the poll to show. not on any user, not even user1. I can only see the "help text" body and poll question (in a page node or article for example). The Choise - options are show in edit mode and in content creation phase only as plain empty boxes. (See image for illustration).

I have racked my brains on what could be the reason for this and how to fix it. Currently the installed modules include only:

Facebook for Drupal
Pollfield
CCK
Views

Any help is appreciated.

check on front of project page there is solution for this under the known problems. I should put this in release notes.

Cheers, Mario!

I have this same issue, as well. I looked on the project page; but there's no mention of this issue nor a solution. Can you post it here or re-post it in the "known issues" section of the project page? This is a great idea for a module. I just can't get it to work.

1.11 version has this issue fixed. Can you give some more information about your problem. Did you check permissions under content_permissions? Can you post some screen shots?

I was having this same problem in 1.12 beta. I did find a bug in pollfield_field_settings where

$columns['poll_features'] = array('type' => 'text', 'default' => "' '", 'sortable' => TRUE, 'views' => TRUE);

had 'views' spelled wrong. I fixed that, then disabled the module, uninstalled it, and then reenabled it.

It seems to be working now.

Hi

1) Drupal 6.17, CCK 2.7, Pollfield 6.x-1.12-beta1.
2) Did change pollfield.module with http://drupal.org/node/714924#comment-3194846
3) Did make a CCK-pollfield and added to my content type: weblinks.
4) Did check correct content permissions.

When I edit a weblinks-node I see the pollfield module attached.
When I edit the CCK_pollfield field, using manage fields/default, I see the default pollfield filled in.
But the Pollfield is not showing when I view the node.
Do I need to build the pollfield per node, not right? Enough to build the pollfield on nodetype?

EDIT:
The pollfield shows when you add a pollfield question to a specific node. But the pollfield default cck value and settings are not shown on a node. So to get it showing I need to add the same question and pollfield settings to every node I have, this is not wanted behaviour I believe, filed an issue for it: http://drupal.org/node/868256

Greetings, Martijn

If this is still an issue it is major. Will look into it more later.

Hey Summit and others, there is some work to address this issue over on another issue. As far as I can tell the original problem where pollfields weren't showing up is now fixed. Now the issue is the problem that Summit pointed out in #5. This is the issue being dealt with on #868256: Pollfield default settings not inherited when editing existing nodes.

I am closing this one so that we can move any more discussion on this to the issue more specific to this individual problem.
