I hope there is mod or plugin for that
if there is not plugin or mod for that how can i do this ?

thanx in advance

[Kindred]

I can't see the "embed" image... it's too small.
I have also never specifically seen that as a mod.

The display of the poll looks like a TinyPortal block...

the results is standard smf.

[cong]

i made it with photoshop it just say the concept

so no solution to this problem ??

i want it

i am ready to pay money to who do it

[Kindred]

I still do not understand.

What do you expect the "embed" section to do?


I have already told you that the poll display can be done with TinyPortal and the results display is standard SMF functionality.

[DonGiovanni]

If i understood. He need this code that other users can embed to their page.

yes you are right i need users to copy and paste code to embed  poll to their page

what is TinyPortal >> sorry i am beginner

i am ready to  pay money to anyone who ready to solve this problem for me

[Kindred]

wait...   you want a code to allow other users to post your forums polls on other pages?

Nope. can not do it.  SMF is not designed to be used that way.

this is not agree with smf  license ?

[Kindred]

it has nothing to do with the license.

SMF is not programatically designed to be used across multiple sites. Even SSI function only work on the same server/main domain.

so programmers can't do this ?

[cong]

i will clear what i want to do
may be there is miss understand

lets say i Have
website "A" >> run smf
another "B" >> this is the external websites that users will embed the polls there

when the webmaster take code from "A" he put it in "B"
Then visitors of "B" will just choose from poll choices then click vote when they click vote they go to results in "A"

may be now you understand me

i think this is easy fr programmers

[Kindred]

and the answer is NO, it is not easy for programmers.   SMF is not intended to be used like that and has no functionality for embedding polls into another site, nor for collecting the data from that site.

SMF is a forum that is intended to be run on a single site/domain. Although you can display posts, etc via RSS, there is no way to send back data.

My first impression was that you wanted to do this all from within your site.  Now that you have explained, I will tell you that it can not be easily done... if it can be done at all.

[cong]

can we do it as iframe ?

[Kindred]

smf does not work in iframes

[cong]

just the poll that will be in  Ifram  not all the forums

just when vistor click on vote he will go to smf

[Kindred]

smf does not work in iframes

the poll is part of smf.
I will say again...

In other words, you CAN NOT do what you are asking, without MAJOR coding.

[cong]

what is major coding ?

you mean paid one i am ready for this

where i can find coder for this ?

[Kindred]

If you can find a coder...  go for it.     good luck.

When I say major coding, I mean that I expect that you will need a professional programmer who will have to re-write major portions of code.

basically, SMF's current design does not support what you are trying to do.

You just need a form with the correct information Kindred. You can do it, but note that guests cannot vote in polls in SMF 1.1.5.

Also, in SMF 2.0, guests can also vote in polls. It will be better idea to use this with SMF 2.0.

What?

The pics are pretty big, just this forum has resized them in the post.
