[archived] pap_xpoll (multiple poll plugin)

MikeTheVike · 2009-01-22 15:23:58

This thread is really old, but I thought I would post my questions just in case…

I have the polls working, but I don’t think the language file is working, because instead of seeing “Total Votes:” I’m seeing “total_votes:”. other text parts have underscores instead of spaces as well. The instructions say to copy the language file to the “lang” directory, but I already had a file by that name in there, and didn’t want to mess anything up. How do I get the new languages working?

Is someone still using this plugin?
I have a problem get it to work with clean urls. The link “View votes” doesn´t show up the appropriate results
url?results=1 isn´t aiming to the right url …
Has someone else this problem or has someone else a solution for this problem?

You’ll have to ask JM, the plugin’s author for that. Maybe a question in the plugin’s thread will return a satisfactory answer for you.

In PHP 5.3.0 ereg_replace is deprecated

ERROR: “Function ereg_replace() is deprecated on line 317”

314 $regexp = '[?&]results=[0-9]+';
315 $replace = '';
316 $httpreferer = ereg_replace($regexp, $replace , $httpreferer);

fix it by this way:

314 $regexp = '#[?&]results=[0-9]+#';
315 $replace = '##';
316 $httpreferer = preg_replace($regexp, $replace , $httpreferer);

Oi Oi – I just upgraded a site to 4.3 which was using this plugin and got the following errors:

The First error is a ‘Undefined Variable’ and is something to do with safe_row

$rs = safe_row("ext, h", "txp_image", "id='$id' limit 1");

So I changed this to:

$rs = safe_row('ext, h', 'txp_image', 'id="$id" limit 1');

And it works :) – why is that?

The Second error is an ‘Undefined Index’ (poll & results) on this line

if ((!isset($_REQUEST['option']) | $_REQUEST['poll'] != $xpoll_data['poll']) && (!isset($_REQUEST['results']) | $_REQUEST['results'] != $xpoll_data['poll']) && $xpoll_data['votecookies'] != 'no' && $xpoll_data['voteip'] != 'no' && $xpoll_data['blocked'] != 'yes' && $xpoll_data['started'] == 'yes' && $xpoll_data['expired'] == 'no' && $xpoll_data['voting'] == 'yes') {

And I think its to do with $_REQUEST[‘poll’] and $_REQUEST[‘results’].

I tried to wrap it with isset (don’t laugh :)) and also found out that $_REQUEST is not a good idea – so tried this code to it use $_GET and $_POST

$_REQUEST = array_merge($_GET, $_POST);

But that didn’t work :(

So I settled on putting a @ before – @$_REQUEST[‘poll’]

Which works :) but I’d like to know why it is wrong in the first place and how to fix it if anyone has the time.

Not a biggy – but if anyone has time to explain :)

Thanks

Because you’ve masked the error :-) Stuff inside single quotes isn’t parsed by PHP so it’s not ‘seeing’ the $id variable any more and therefore can’t complain that it’s not set. A better method would be to revert the quotes to what they were originally and initialise the $id variable somewhere above that line. Not sure of the specifics of the plugin — you don’t want to override this value if it’s an attribute, for example — but the general approach would be:

$id = (isset($id)) ? $id : '';

(or, if desired, you could initialise the id value to something instead of using '')

The Second error is an ‘Undefined Index’ (poll & results) on this line

Same thing applies here. You need to initialise the variables. Instead of using raw $_GET and $_POST you could use TXP’s built in handler function gps() (‘Get/Post Set’)

$option = gps('option');
$poll = gps('poll');

And then wherever you see $_REQUEST['poll'], swap it out with $poll and so forth.

Hope that helps. We’ll make a programmer of you yet :-)

Thanks Stef – I’ll try those tomorrow

WARNING – do not hold your breath whilst trying to make me a programmer :)
