I had the same problem, after activating the plugin. In the database was only the table pollin_question, but not pollin_answers. After creating the table with your script manually, it works.<br /> Thanks </p> http://projects.binnyva.com/forum/topic/after_saving_poll_it_does_not_appear#post-1873 Sun, 06 Sep 2009 09:13:48 +0000 Binny V A 1873@http://projects.binnyva.com/forum/ I ran into the same problem. Here is how I got things working:<br /> <br /> After looking at the tables in my wordpress database, the pollin tables were not created by the installation routine. I created them manually as follows:<br /> <br /> 1) determine the table prefix used by your wordpress installation. Look at the tables in the wordpress database and find the comments table. (generally the first table when the tables are sorted alphabetically) The prefix normally consists of wp_{6 charaters}_ and will look something like this &quot;wp_8gg0an_&quot; including the underscores. You will need this exact string to ensure that the tables will work with your installation of wordpress. I cut &amp; paste the table creation code from the pollin.php file. Please remember to use your prefix text and replace the {prefix} in the code below or the code you cut from the pollin.php file.<br /> <br /> <p><code>CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS {prefix}pollin_answer (<br /> ID int(11) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,<br /> question_ID int(11) unsigned NOT NULL,<br /> answer varchar(255) default NULL,<br /> sort_order int(3) NOT NULL,<br /> votes int(5) NOT NULL default '0',<br /> PRIMARY KEY (ID),<br /> KEY question_ID (question_ID)<br /> );<br /> CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS {prefix}pollin_question (<br /> ID int(11) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,<br /> question mediumtext NOT NULL,<br /> added_on datetime NOT NULL,<br /> status enum('1','0') NOT NULL default '1',<br /> PRIMARY KEY (ID)<br /> );</code></p><br /> <br /> I hope this helps.<br /> <br /> Gavin aka SparkPilot - <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://sparkpilot.com/blog">http://sparkpilot.com/blog</a><!-- m --> http://projects.binnyva.com/forum/topic/after_saving_poll_it_does_not_appear#post-1814 Thu, 03 Sep 2009 01:09:32 +0000 Binny V A 1814@http://projects.binnyva.com/forum/ Same here. Created a poll, but it doesn't appear on my Manage Polls page. There is no wp_pollin_answer table in my pollin plugin folder. Should there be? http://projects.binnyva.com/forum/topic/after_saving_poll_it_does_not_appear#post-1775 Thu, 27 Aug 2009 21:07:46 +0000 Binny V A 1775@http://projects.binnyva.com/forum/ The source of the problem seems to be that the two table creation commands are put into one SQL call (line 106 in pollin.php) which at least some versions don't like. Only the second CREATE TABLE is executed correctly. Maybe dbDelta() does not handle multiple SQL commands? http://projects.binnyva.com/forum/topic/after_saving_poll_it_does_not_appear#post-1720 Thu, 20 Aug 2009 07:38:52 +0000 Binny V A 1720@http://projects.binnyva.com/forum/ Yep, i've got the exact same problem. pollin_answer table wasn't created so created it as in the post above, and everything works now.<br /> <br /> Only thing... I can't see the poll ID anywhere in Manage Polls? It's obviously not the #, which changes if you delete polls. http://projects.binnyva.com/forum/topic/after_saving_poll_it_does_not_appear#post-1695 Mon, 17 Aug 2009 15:35:39 +0000 Anonymous 1695@http://projects.binnyva.com/forum/ I also ran into this exact problem. I got into the MySQL Wordpress database and found that the wp_pollin_answer table was missing. I checked the code in pollin.php that creates the tables and I did not see any obvious problems. I copied the code from plugin.php and pasted it into the MySQL CLI and the wp_pollin_answer table created successfully. After doing this, I can create polls.<br /> <br /> My platform and software information is:<br /> <br /> OS: FreeBSD 7.1-STABLE<br /> MySQL: 5.0.67<br /> PHP: 5.2.6<br /> Apache: 2.0.63<br /> Wordpress: 2.8.4 http://projects.binnyva.com/forum/topic/no_access_to_make_changes#post-1567 Mon, 17 Aug 2009 04:20:19 +0000 Binny V A 1567@http://projects.binnyva.com/forum/ Hi i have the same problem, but i think i have the last version, i downloaded it from the web page and i have installed it from the plugin management in the wordpress panel, but i have the same problem, i don't have permission to change or create polls and i'm the administrator. http://projects.binnyva.com/forum/topic/can_t_see_polls_in_post#post-1563 Mon, 17 Aug 2009 04:10:42 +0000 Anonymous 1563@http://projects.binnyva.com/forum/ Try using the code [POLLIN 1] http://projects.binnyva.com/forum/topic/widget_polling#post-1242 Mon, 17 Aug 2009 03:41:32 +0000 Binny V A 1242@http://projects.binnyva.com/forum/ Thank you for the code.

Unfortunately it does not work for any of us. Please let us know step by step what actions you took from when you install the plug in to editing. Maybe if we do that it will work. Also, do we need to tweak the php code? If so, please give detailed instructions as I only have basic html knowledge.
