Welcome Joomla-Fireboard Lovers

Yes, its no more a dream..... Fireboard Poll-System is now alive, but in alpha stage.

Hope, it will be available with Fireboard 1.0.4 version.

It doesn't have any CSS (bare bone structure), no language support (only english) and direct database connection instate of using Joomla's database class.

Please report BUGs and Suggestions, but not ADDONS.

You are welcome to test it. Create new thread with Poll associated with it.

To BOJ!Developers,
Don't worry, as soon as I stabilized the code, I will submit you the project for FREE

Seems to work nicely on your test site! Great initiative! Hope the guy from BoJ team will integrate it in next release
A few suggestions: Can you make the greatest bar from another color to see what is wining so far? Can guests have the option to vote and if yes how do you prevent them from voting twice?
One question since it is alpha release, do you want us to test it first on test sites? and you would advise us to avoid using it in live sites?

thanks
I will test tonight on a test site with plenty of bots and all to really challenge it

Edit: sorry but can we download something to install it or can we only test it on your test site for now?

Ok I now tested it further on your website. I think that in the pop-up I saw nothing to validate the poll. I just pressed return and it was ok but maybe a validation button would be nice (I used firefox). Secondly, you may think of doing like in smf, with a button saying new poll instead of new message. But if you want to keep with this approach, some kind of check mark showing us that the poll has been validated and will be included to the post would be nice if it is possible.
And of course in the future, if we can edit it, then it is better.
One more thing I thought later is maybe to change the check box by a button. Seems more appropriate to trigger the opening of a pop-up. But this is minor.

Anyway great work and I look forward to use it!

Thank you

Can you make the greatest bar from another color to see what is wining so far? OK
Can guests have the option to vote? no, security reason, they can only see the result
do you want us to test it first on test sites? yes please
you would advise us to avoid using it in live sites? yes, there are still some bugs and needs some SQL optimization too, also I used direct database connection instate of using Joomla's database class, will change it in beta version.

sorry but can we download something to install it or can we only test it on your test site for now? Integration is quite simple, add of few lines in 3 core files, max 7 lines total, and 5 additional files in /plugins/poll dir

There are validation, title is must, 2 options are must


Most beautiful thing is that, we can use the same Joomla-Poll Admin system to control this FB-Poll system.


Thanks for the suggestion.

Hi just checking first if you saw my whole post, I added a few things by edition of the first post that you may have missed in the end.
Second you say there are only a few changes to make, but are they on your website as well?
If you want us to test on our test websites as well it would be nice to see how to install it clearly.
(sorry if I missed it)
