[Plugin: PhotoContest Plugin] Many Problems with unicode and votes

The error: Invalid Poll ID. Poll ID #0 will be fixed in the next release.

The unicode problems are addressed aswell.

Hope to release a new version ASAP (around 15/1/2010!)

BTW: Any change you have translated the plugin into Greek??
I love to integrate this into the plugin!!!!

Hello,

1) I use version 1.4.4 with WP 2.9.2 and I have problems with unicode as well (Russian letter become “?”):

yet, it’s ok in “introduction” part, as you see here:

2) in preview, something is terribly wrong with number of votest! If i vote once, I have “5 votes”, if I vote again (another browser and e-mail) – I have “9 votes”.

3) Somehow I’m able to post photos without registration. (I tried it via another browser not being logged in and it worked).

4) And I would second a must-have feature with resizing images before upload to some maximum pixels.

Thank you for your help.

p/s/ I did some HTML, PHP and Java programming (i programmed mentioned above web-page, not the blog), so if there is a way I can help you solving mentioned above problems, let me know.

Best regards,
Denis.

Version 1.5.1 should fix some of the above bugs/features…. but no mail yet 🙁
