Poll Manager Support Thread

[boudewijn]

Hi,

Browser and localhost issues are a nightmare for a programmer, and I have seen many problems with it. So quite a few can have their cause there.

The disappearing text issue won't be hard to fix. If you display the page without text, and view the page source in your browser, you will probably discover there that the texts are present, but invisible. This could very well be a CSS issue, where the style for the text is redefined in that specific template. The style for the poll box is 'sideBoxContent'.
If the site is accessible from outside, I can also have a look for you.

Hi!

My poll has the same problem as Amanda. The text is supertiny.
Just installed it, with the changes you refer to.

Hi,

I did finally get to making the change you suggested ie - replacing line 104 with:
$content .= '<div id="' . $boxname . '" class="sideBoxContent">';

It hasn't fixed it unfortunately. The font is still super tiny.

Thanks

Amanda

I guess you have changed line 105, Amanda!?
Either way, it does not work ...

[lj20272]

Woops, yes, I meant line 105.

I also tried installing all the updated files with no success.

You're quite welcome to have a look... http://www.pregnancyshop.com.au

The style clearBoth in your template also sets the font size to 2 pixels, causing the text to be so tiny. I'm not sure how to fix this permanently yet, but a workaround is to change, in includes/templates/<YOUR TEMPLATE>/sideboxes/tpl_poll_box.php, line 113:

from: $content .= '<div style="width:99%;" class="clearBoth">';

to: $content .= '<div style="width:99%; clear:both; font-weight:normal; overflow:hidden;">';

This should, in your template, prevent changing the font size and weight and cause the text to display correctly.

Please let me know how this works out.

@cecsy:

The fix above may work for Amanda's template, but not for yours. Please try the fix above and let me know the results. If not ok, please post an URL where I can see what happens.

This worked! Thank you, so much!

Awesome stuff..... that fixed it.

Thank you so much for your continued support and fixes.

Hi Great Mod,
i just tried to use it on Zen Cart v1.3.8a and it doesn't store any data in the database when you click send..

Is there any way to get this mod to work with Zen Cart v1.3.8a?
