New parameter votesorting that allows you to specify the sorting of the votes (only for the vote-results and archive). Using this parameter, you can now order your results on the amount of votes they received.

Update instructions
To update from 0.3.2 to 0.3.3, all you have to do is to replace the Snippet Code inside the MODx Manager and replace the easypoll.class.php file with the new one.

EasyPoll is a new Poll Module for MODx. It allows the creation of Polls for multiple Languages, timed Polls, Poll Archive and highly customizable Output.

Description

EasyPoll offers these Features (among others)

Administration
  • A unlimited amount of polls can be created.
  • Polls can be limited to a certain date-range (by setting a start- and end-date).
  • Polls can be set active/inactive.
  • Polls may consist of a variable amount of possible answers.
  • The user may setup different languages inside the PollManager.
  • PollManager will keep track of the current "translation status" by looking up if question and answers are translated for all the poll-languages (if a language isn't completely translated, it won't be accessible by the snippet thats responsible for output).


Output
A single snippet does it all. It shows polls, sends your vote and updates the results via AJAX. Output is highly customizable with Templates and Placeholders.
  • Voting and displaying of the results using AJAX.
  • Degrades/works nicely on a browser without JavaScript.
  • Works with friendly URLs
  • Very easy to integrate. Just one Snippet that does all.
  • Hard-coded text can easily be translated to different languages due to external language-files.
  • Custom JavaScript callback function to build your own "transition" from vote-screen to the results-screen.
  • Support for multi-language Polls.
  • Limiting user to one vote per Poll by setting a cookie and/or logging the IP
  • Complete customization of Poll appearance with own chunks and css stylesheet.
  • Template Functions for complete control over output
  • Poll Archive output

Requirements
  • Tested on MODx 0.9.5 and 0.9.6.
  • Requires PHP >= 5.1
  • MySQL >= 4.1
  • MooTools with XHR module (only required for AJAX functionality)
