Creating "Add Poll" in a page
-
Hi,
I am trying to take the form processing & forms from the file polls-add.php and put them in a template page so I can get members to add their own poll directly from a Page (and not at the wordpress back-end). Seems the form is processed but it keeps giving message: Poll Must have Question.Any suggestions?
All I really want is to be able to get users to create poll from the front end. Any other ways to do it?Thanks

opps solved by fixing the form action.
Hello af3,
I’m trying to achieve the same thing. I’ve added the poll onto the front end but when i tried to click ‘add poll’. It says you do not have sufficient permission.
Would you mind teaching me how you implement the code?
Thanks!
Actually its fine. managed to get it working ??

Hi
as usual to forums in general, this post does not answer the question.How do i add the poll to my main page. and neither does the link, is there a step by step methodology. Please help someoneThis is what I did:
1. Create a page template add-poll.php with the following content<?php /** * Template Name: Add Poll * * @package WordPress * @subpackage WP Poll */ get_header(); ?> <script type='text/javascript' src='https://my.domain.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-polls/polls-admin-js.js?ver=2.63'></script> <div id="content" class="two_column"> <div class="padder"> <?php do_action( 'bp_before_blog_page' ) ?> <div class="page" id="blog-page" role="main"> <?php ### Check Whether User Can Manage Polls if(!current_user_can('manage_polls')) { die('Access Denied'); } if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') { ### Form Processing // initialize a variable to // put any errors we encounter into an array $errors = array(); // check to see if a question was entered // check to see if answer was entered if ((!$_POST['pollq_question']) || (!$_POST['polla_answers'])) { // if not, add that error to our array echo "<font color=red><strong>ERROR:</strong></font> Poll must have a question and answer selections!\n"; } else { switch($_POST['do']) { // Add Poll case __('Create Poll', 'wp-polls'): check_admin_referer('wp-polls_add-poll'); // Poll Question $pollq_question = addslashes(trim($_POST['pollq_question']));

} else { $pollq_active = 1; } // Poll End Date $pollq_expiry_no = intval($_POST['pollq_expiry_no']); if($pollq_expiry_no == 1) { $pollq_expiry = ''; } else { $pollq_expiry_day = intval($_POST['pollq_expiry_day']);

Change domain.com in the template to yours
3. Put in your theme folder or child-theme folder
4. In WordPress, create a blank page with the template ‘Add Poll’
5. If you go to https://yourdomain.com/add-poll/ you should then can add poll alreadyI am not a coder — so cant help much if that doesnt work for you. I hope others can help too.
