Jinksy Posted July 18, 2015 Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 Would it be simple enough to change the default of polls to be public? I basically always want mine to be, but occasionally forget to tick the box until it's too late. I suspect a lot of forum newcomers don't even notice it's an option.

1eyedjack Posted July 18, 2015 Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 I would have liked to have voted but "don't care" isn't listed as an option. I think that all polls should have "other" autoinserted as a choice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted July 18, 2015 Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 I just checked the control panel, this doesn't seem to be an option. The settable options (and how we have them set) for polls are: Allow IMG and URL tags in polls? YesMax questions per poll: 3Max choices allowed: 20Allow members to view the results without losing their vote? YesAllow poll creator to vote in own poll? YesAllow poll creator to make "poll only"? NoAllow Public Polls? YesAllow Vote Deletion? YesNumber of hours to keep open the ability for topic starters to attach a poll to their topic: 24 There are also options for user groups, controlling whether they're allowed to start or vote in polls.

blackshoe Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 I guess we just need to pay attention to what we're doing when we create a poll. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vampyr Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 Is it possible to change the New Content refresh from "Random" to "Reader's Choice" or "Never"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 I think the only setting related to New Content is in your personal settings. Under "General Settings", there's "View New Content Method", and the choices are content you haven't read and new content since your last visit.

The New Content refreshes itself several times a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Of course it updates, since new posts are made throughout the day, and those are "since your last visit". Or are you saying that posts that were after your last visit are being removed from the New Content list during the day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
