More Poll Options

Post by Finis »

Polls need to have more than 10 options, things to vote for, so SMC's and MMC's with many entries can be on one poll. Can the limit be increased?

I don' see a reason for such small limit (I know it's the default) so I think that could be like 50 Options, of course maybe people would never use 50 options and that's why there should be a number people would rarely reach.

Maybe up to 15 to 25 in a poll? This is the first time we had so many entries. I'm looking into it.

Quote from phpBB forum:
You can fix it in Administration Control Panel

General Admin - > Configuration , find Max number of poll options in part User and Forum Basic Settings and set it to 11 or higher.

I wonder if Merging all 3 Polls would work...

We have raised the number of entries allowed in a poll to 25. I would not mess with any existing
polls so this new feature is for future popular challenges.

Wouldn't it be great if this trend continues? That is a topic for another day.
Enjoy.

25 seem like enough but since some make multiple entries, when allowed, it may need to be increased someday.
