Poll4All FAQs
Discontinued
The Poll4All project had been discontinued. We decided to still maintain it for legacy and affection, but further modifications will not be done. Although a moderate assistance to the last working version available on this site will still be kindly given, the use of it is strongly advised against.
This section covers the Frequently Asked Questions about Poll4All.
Questions
- I received this error: "ConfigMagik::ConfigMagik() - Could not create new config-file('$path')". What does it mean?
- I received this warning: "Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at '%path%' )" where
%path%
is the path of your page. - The poll is working perfectly but I don't know how to allow my viewers to see results without voting first. Is it possible to view results without voting?

This happens under two circumstances:
-
The txtdb.ini.php file or the /txt/ folder that contains it, have no write permission.
Solution: set the folder to chmod 755 and all contained files to chmod 666.
-
The
"$scriptPath"parameter inside config.php is not set correctly.Solution: check the readme file included in the Poll4All package for instruction on how to configure this parameter.
