Unfortunately this would involve changes to the database because the actual table which stores results for polls ("{db_prefix}poll_choices") within the database only stores a numerical value for each choice, not a list of people and what they voted.

I am sure that a Mod could do this however, if somebody was willing to make one.

I might think about it, but I am currently working on some other mods, so it wouldn't happen any time soon if I did it.

A post in the mod requests area might yield some more responses. ;)

Unfortunately this isn't currently available as a feature or mod although you can request it in Mod Requests (See: Mod Requests)

@LHVWB is it not in log_polls?

CREATE TABLE {$db_prefix}log_polls (
  ID_POLL mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  ID_MEMBER mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  ID_CHOICE tinyint(3) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  PRIMARY KEY (ID_POLL, ID_MEMBER, ID_CHOICE)
) TYPE=MyISAM;

Indead it is, I obviously I didn't look close enough at the database! ;)

Making this mod won't actually be too difficult. I might consider making it after my other mods are done. ;)

Out of interest, would you want an option in the admin section to turn this on and off, as well as an option to allow only certain membergroups to view individual votes? I am just brainstorming possible features of a mod, so any more thoughts would be good. :)

 :D :D :D :D Thanks for your quick response

for my purpose its not necessary.
I'm using the poll to plan events so i can see what they wanna do and who`s wanna do it

but i can imagine that if you are creating a mod it would be handy.

Thanks

There is a mod that dose it, but it is for SMF 1.1.x, maybe you could ask the modder to convert it for SMF 2.0. I think it'll be easier and faster than do it from the beginning.

Whats the name of the mod? This doesn't look like a very difficult mod so its probably easier to ask the original modder to update it.

Mod name is "Who Voted What".

Thank you, however it looks like that Mod has been abandonned so it may not be updated to SMF 2 Beta 3.1. So I might make a new and similar Mod anyway! ;)

Indeed the mod will not work correctly with 2.0.x. However this may just be because the author is not updating until 2.0 becomes final

If you have a look at the thread for the mod then you can see that the mod creator hasn't posted in that thread since August 2007, and his profile shows that he hasn't been active on the forums since 24 December 2007. So I think its fairly safe to assume that support for it has been at least partially removed, probably because the Modder lost interest or doesn't have time.

Some mod authors just don't provide support for their mods and so won't visit here again until they update it :)

Fwiw, I would also be interested to see this mod updated or a new one created for my forums.

I have gotten a response from the modder saying that he will update it for the new versions.

I guess he must have had a subscription for the thread. :)

I know this is an old thread, but still very popular in search results, so I just want everyone to know about a new mod I wrote and was recently approved that can do this and much more!
