[Plugin: WP-Polls]-: polls added to post do not allow voting only display answers (5 posts)

    I have pasted the code from the readme file into the post on the html side. I added the poll id number using brackets as instructed. I save the post, preview, and it shows only the poll with option to vote...just the answers. It also shows portions of the code, such as the first line, and the last line of code when doing it this way.

    If I just use the "poll button" it does not show any excess code, but only displays the poll with no voting.

    I didn't publish the post, so you can't see it...but my site address is: www.marketlikeachick.com

    Please help! Thanks,

    Coree

    The code should be [poll id="2"] where 1 is the poll id and you are correct, it should be place at the HTML side.

    You may want to try the default theme to eliminate the possibility of a thee conflict.

    Hey GamerZ, any tips for getting WP-Polls to work with the LightWord theme? I've checked the theme for the get_head and get_footer code, it has both.

    I'm sure the theme is at fault because polls work great on the default theme. If there are any easy ways to get it to work that would be sweet, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

    Thank you for your time either way,
    Luke

    hi the code is not get_footer or get_header().

    Check your footer.php to see if there is the code <?php wp_footer(); ?> and header.php, <php wp_head(); ?>

    Woops, that's an error while posting on my part.

    I double checked and the theme does include those lines of code.

    Info:
    Wordpress 2.8
    Lightwave theme
    No other active add-ons right now
    Had older versions of wp-polls prior to the upgrade

    What I have tried:
    Add-on enable/disable (2x)
    Removal of addon directory on webserver, re-dl and re-installation
    Uninstall through the add-on(removed old sql entries)
    I've tried enabling/disabling the ajax animation
    I've messed with the logging method and voting rights
    Enabled default theme, they worked
