Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about WP-Polls

Go to WP-Admin -> Pages -> Add New. Type any title you like in the post's title area. If you ARE using nice permalinks, after typing the title, WordPress will generate the permalink to the page. You will see an 'Edit' link just beside the permalink. Click 'Edit' and type in pollsarchive in the text field and click 'Save'. Type [page_polls] in the post's content area. Click 'Publish'. If you ARE NOT using nice permalinks, you need to go to WP-Admin -> Polls -> Poll Options and under Poll Archive -> Polls Archive URL, you need to fill in the URL to the Polls Archive Page you created above.
It is because of rounding issues. To make it always round up to 100%, the last poll's answer will get the remainding percentage added to it. To enable this feature, add this to your theme's functions.php: add_filter( 'wp_polls_round_percentage', '__return_true' );
WP-Polls will load polls-css.css from your theme's directory if it exists. If it doesn't exists, it will just load the default polls-css.css that comes with WP-Polls. This will allow you to upgrade WP-Polls without worrying about overwriting your polls styles that you have created.
To solve this issue, Open poll-css.css Find: /* background-color: #ffffff; */ Replace: background-color: #ffffff; (where #ffffff should be your background color for the poll.)
Courtesy Of TreedBox.com Open poll-css.css Add to the end of the file: .wp-polls-ul li:nth-child(01) .pollbar{ background:#8FA0C5} .wp-polls-ul li:nth-child(02) .pollbar{ background:#FF8} .wp-polls-ul li:nth-child(03) .pollbar{ background:#ff8a3b} .wp-polls-ul li:nth-child(04) .pollbar{ background:#a61e2a} .wp-polls-ul li:nth-child(05) .pollbar{ background:#4ebbff} .wp-polls-ul li:nth-child(06) .pollbar{ background:#fbca54} .wp-polls-ul li:nth-child(07) .pollbar{ background:#aad34f} .wp-polls-ul li:nth-child(08) .pollbar{ background:#66cc9a} .wp-polls-ul li:nth-child(09) .pollbar{ background:#98CBCB} .wp-polls-ul li:nth-child(10) .pollbar{ background:#a67c52} .wp-polls-ul li .pollbar{ transition: background 0.7s ease-in-out } .wp-polls-ul li .pollbar:hover{ background:#F00 } To Display Total Polls <?php if ( function_exists( 'get_pollquestions' ) ): ?> <?php get_pollquestions(); ?> <?php endif; ?> To Display Total Poll Answers <?php if ( function_exists( 'get_pollanswers' ) ): ?> <?php get_pollanswers(); ?> <?php endif; ?> To Display Total Poll Votes <?php if ( function_exists( 'get_pollvotes' ) ): ?> <?php get_pollvotes(); ?> <?php endif; ?> To Display Poll Votes by ID <?php if ( function_exists( 'get_pollvotes_by_id' ) ): ?> <?php get_pollvotes_by_id($poll_id); ?> <?php endif; ?> To Display Total Poll Voters <?php if ( function_exists( 'get_pollvoters' ) ): ?> <?php get_pollvoters(); ?> <?php endif; ?> To Display Poll Time by ID and date format <?php if ( function_exists( 'get_polltime' ) ): ?> <?php get_polltime( $poll_id, $date_format ); ?> <?php endif; ?> Translating the template The plugin templates can be translated via template variables. There are these filters for the custom template variables wp_polls_template_votebody_variables wp_polls_template_votefooter wp_polls_template_resultheader_variables wp_polls_template_resultbody_variables wp_polls_template_resultfooter_variables Add filter to your theme and register custom variable where you will add your translation. Good practice is to name them for example with prefix STR_ in the example STR_TOTAL_VOTERS. /** * Localize wp_polls_template_resultfooter_variables. * * @param array $variables An array of template variables. * @return array $variables Modified template variables. */ function wp_polls_template_resultfooter_variables( $variables ) { // Add strings. $variables['%STR_TOTAL_VOTERS%'] = __( 'Total voters', 'theme-textdomain' ); return $variables; } // Trigger the filter add_filter( 'wp_polls_template_resultfooter_variables', 'wp_polls_template_resultfooter_variables' , 10, 1 ); In the admin side just call the custom variable like so and the variable has been translated in the front-end. %STR_TOTAL_VOTERS%'
