Bug with Poll Functionality

Found a bug and inconvenience with the poll functionality on the forum.

If you submit multiple questions into the poll, all of them need to be answered for you to submit your response. There should be an option  to make a person only need to fill out one.

 

As for the bug, if you have the maximum number of questions and you delete one  and try adding one back - it gives you the message "you have hit the maximum number", even though you were one higher before you deleted a question

 

Edit: This Originally was a poll post regarding GPUs, but it didn't work. This is why it is in the GPU section. I would delete it if I could.

Yeah, I deleted it because it wouldn't work - and replaced with a bug/request for a feature.

That's not a bug, simply add an answer like "none" or "not applicable" to every questions.

Yeah, that's why I included the "and inconvenience" to that sentence - though I was unclear.

Here's a screen-shot of what it can look like - an extreme case of me repeating the glitch until I only have 2 questions.

I can give steps if you want to re-create it.

@Imbellis you said that this was still occurring after the latest update, but I can't reproduce it. If you're sure that it still occurs, can you give me the steps required to reproduce it?

Sure.

1) Fill up to the maximum number of polls (10 total)

2) Remove any question that isn't the last. (Q2-9)

I think this "bug" was caused by checking for the questions being assigned a value (1-10) and the script checking for "#10 question slot" being filled rather than actually testing for the number of questions.

 

Really, I may be one of the few to push the poll functionality to limits - so it isn't forum-breaking - just something that eventually should be fixed.

Perfect, thanks. I've reported the issue to the developers.
