Hello, this plugin is great but I have one problem. I’m trying to create some polls and only want to user to be able to vote once per poll. I can black based on cookie or IP but only for a certain number of days, if I change the poll I want them to be able to vote on that one, but only once per user (cookie or IP is fine.) I can do this only for logged in users (“Limit Number of Votes per User: (Only for logged users)”) How can I get it to only allow one vote per person per poll? Thank you!

Hey csburdick,

Edit yop_poll_model.php and in register_vote function, after

if ( 'facebook' == $vote_type ){
          $voter['user_id']   = $facebook_user_id;
          $voter['user_type'] = $vote_type;
         }

add

$ip     = self::get_ip();
                                    global $wpdb;
                                    $log_id = $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare( "
     SELECT count(*)
     FROM " . $wpdb->yop_poll_logs . "
     WHERE poll_id = %d AND
     ip = %s Group by  vote_date
     ", $this->poll['id'], $ip) );
                                    if($log_id>=1) {
                                        $this->error = __( 'You have run out of votes!', 'yop_poll' );
                                        return false;

                                    }

Let us know if you need more help.

Best wishes,
