Create a poll

Presented with the option to have the poll "Active" or "Closed".

Selecting "Closed" and submitted results in a poll that is still "Active".

Editing the poll shows "Active" selected.

Oddly enough, if you then edit the already-created poll, and select "Closed" and submit, it actually closes. But not on the initial creation.

Looks like on line 187, $admin is defined by numerous, logical criteria, which displays the Active/Closed option on the node form.

Then on line 429, it's forced to active = 1 if the user doesn't have admin polls perm.

Status: Active » Closed (outdated)
