Can't create poll

[devilish]

Hi,

Just tried creating a poll -- went to various forums and "Create Thread" but
no poll option on the bottom.

In Meta, when I create a thread, I can create a poll.

I saw in an earlier msg in Meta that there might be some permission problems ---
is this why?

Thanks,
-D

Yes, probably.

Start the poll in Meta and I'll move it to where it ought to be.

Also, please make note in the poll that I said this so the other mods don't get confused.

This problem should be rectified - let me know if it isn't.

I was trying to create a poll earlier, and I can't get it to work. Thanks!

 

[Darkness]

Michael is not online... If you want to create a poll now, feel free to do what I said to the original poster of this thread.

 

[JVisgaitis]

Thanks for the response darkness. Maybe I'm a potato head or just really tired, but when I go to create a new poll it says options with the blank to fill in a number, and the line after it says maximum:0. Am I missing something?

 

[Darkness]

Maximum: 0 usually means infinite. Did you try if it the boards accept the poll?

 

[JVisgaitis]

I put a 4 in there but I don't see where I need to fill out the choices. Does that come after I submit the thread?

 

[Knight Otu]

Yep, that comes once you submit the thread and have the poll checkbox checked. (or should, at least, if the poll issues are resolved.)

 

[Darkness]

Yeah, that's just how it works.
