No cookies for Polls? version 1.8.4 Posted by loobian 15 Aug 2004 10:17 GMT-0000 posts: 60 Hi! People can vote unlimited number of times on a same poll. It really makes the polll useless. Is there any way I can restrict people to vote on same poll just once? Thanks!

Also in TikiWiki 1.8 there is the CookieMonster problem. So it could be that the Tiki site is actually sending out the cookie, but the browsers limitation of 20, has been reached, therefor it gets disgarded straight away. Damian Project Admin Team
Posted by Damien 16 Aug 2004 07:07 GMT-0000 posts: 13 I am surprised. I thought that people voting on a poll were logged. Therefore they can vote only once (at least for registered people) : at least that's how it works on the tiki site I run (version 1.8.4). This solution seems more reliable than a cookie to me.
