Hi all,
First off, I wanna saw that SMF is an awesome forum, the best I've seen around, and we use it in multiple instances over a few different sites. None of us are PHP coders or any sort of coders for that matter, so its awesome that its functions well and is simple to use. But enough buttering up, on to my question ;)
I'm currently using some code written by Unknown that is listed on the forum here:
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=12774.0 (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=12774.0)
I have an HTML form set up on a page on the site, new applicants are required to fill out the application page and submit the form for a specific user group to review. That user group is required to vote on the application before it goes to general consensus. Kind of like a veto power for folks that don't hit the application standards or for whatever reason.
Currently the moderator of that application forum has to go into each post, and add a poll with a simple yes/no vote on it. My question is this, is there an easy way to add a poll into the code written by unknown, or some sort of simple modification that can be done to it to allow this option? I apologize if this isn't the right area to ask this and will forewarn that my knowledge of php is very limited. I was able to update the code written by unknown to have the information I needed within it up to this point, but I'm not really sure where to start with the poll addition. Any help would be appreciated.
I have also used the code mentioned in the above post. I have it working to where it validates, emails and posts the info in the forum, but I would like the posting of the info into the forum to be a poll as well.
Is unknown still around? Or does anyone have any ideas?
