Post Changing votes in a poll
Hi
I have set up a poll and selected the option to allow members to change their vote, but it doesn't allow them to. Moderators and administrators can change the selection but ordinary members can not.Can you tell me what I have done wrong? Is there something else I need to set. Thanks.

Hello, it may be that you haven't set the Registered users forum permissions correctly.

1) Head over to your ACP (Advanced Admin Panel) and click the "Permissions" tab at the top,
2) Click "Groups' forum permissions" at the left hand side and select the "Registered users" group from the drop-down box,
3) Toggle the "All forums" box and click Submit immediately beneath,
4) For each forum click "Advanced Permissions" and then the "Polls" tab before toggling "Can change existing vote" to "Yes",
5) Don't forget to click "Apply All Permissions" at the very bottom once you've finished.

If you have any more questions please don't hesitate to ask and we'll be happy to help :)

Thank you. It's too late for the poll that I was running, but at least I now know what to change so that it will work next time.
