Embedded Poll Hack v1.1 by Ianomed, a request from http://www.theadminzone.com/forums/index.php?t=6563

It's a simple addition to showthread.php, and two template mods (showthread + postbit[legacy])

What it does is embed a poll in the first post, rather than show it at the top of the thread. On pages 2+ of course it'll show it at the top of the thread, since post 1 won't be displayed there.

See attached screenshot for an example, or check out http://www.startrek-online.net/community/index.php?t=479&page=1&pp=10&styleid=4

Works with and tested on vB 3.0.6

Changelog:
v1.1 - 30 January 2005 - Added support for hybrid+threaded mode
v1.0 - 24 January 2005 - Initial release

save and close file.

open template SHOWTHREAD, find (near the top):

PHP Code:


$poll

replace with: (this makes sure the poll will appear at the top on pages 2+, as per default, but hides it on page 1)

PHP Code:


<if condition="$pagenumber > 1">

$poll

</if>

finally open template postbit or postbitlegacy (depending on your preferences), find:

PHP Code:


<!-- message -->

<div>$post[message]</div>

<!-- / message -->

replace with:

PHP Code:


<!-- message -->

<div>$post[message]<!-- embedded poll -->

<if condition="$post[pollresults]">

<br />

<br />

$post[pollresults]

</if><!-- embedded poll end -->

</div>

<!-- / message -->

unless of course you want it beneath (possible) attachments, but above the signature, etc etc., then you'd place it there
