WP-Polls, WP-PostRatings, WP-PostViews, WP-Email Updated

I have updated the following plugins:

Now all AJAX requests are handled by /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php. Previously it is handled via the plugin PHP file itself by assuming that wp-load.php is always 2 levels down from the plugin file. But since you can have your WordPress in any folders, custom loading of wp-load.php is not possible as the path to wp-load.php varies from server to server.

While I am at it, I added nonce check for AJAX calls to WP-Polls, WP-PostRatings and WP-Email. Let me know if you run into problems via WordPress Support Forums, My Forums (if you are already registered) or via email (lesterchan AT gmail).

PS: Kindly refer to https://lesterchan.net/wordpress/2012/06/05/ajax-not-working-for-wp-email-wp-polls-wp-postratings-or-wp-postviews/ if you ran into problems.

  1. hi,

    I have a bug, the link to pollarchive is always display, rather if I change the poll_archive_show option…

    No parameter when you call display_polls_archive_link(); , it’s always true…

    My solution:
    $show_poll = get_option(‘poll_archive_show’);
    display_polls_archive_link($show_poll);

    Thanks for this plugin 😉

    wp-polls.php:

    1522 $title = apply_filters(‘widget_title’, esc_attr($instance[‘title’]));
    1523 $poll_id = intval($instance[‘poll_id’]);
    1524 $display_pollarchive = intval($instance[‘display_pollarchive’]);
    1525 echo $before_widget;
    1526 if(!empty($title)) {
    1527 echo $before_title.$title.$after_title;
    1528 }
    1529 get_poll($poll_id);
    1530 if($display_pollarchive) {
    1531 display_polls_archive_link();
    1532 }

  2. The widget is for individual poll, you can choose whether or not to show the link to poll archive for the individual poll widget.

  5. Hi,

    I know you are busy, but the rich snippest for wp-postrating is not generated for pages, it’s working fine for posts but not PAGES. Could you please look into this ?

    Thanks

  7. I had a problem with the referrer error (poll results wouldn’t load) when I was using W3TotalCache, so I tried a fix that saaraan recommended at
    http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-polls-failed-to-verify-referrer
    …wrapping this php code with comment /* — */in wp-polls.php, solved in my case.

    /*
    if(!check_ajax_referer(‘poll_’.$poll_id.’-nonce’, ‘poll_’.$poll_id.’_nonce’, false))
    {
    _e(‘Failed To Verify Referrer’, ‘wp-polls’);
    exit();
    }
    */

  9. I tried the clearing-JS-css-cache tip and that did not help, and I disabled the JS-CSS caching in W3TotalCache also and that didn’t help either.

  11. Hi,
    your Plugins are great, I really love them. I used the wp-polls and wp-postratings ones. My question is: If it would possible to show the highest rating post in some way on a page or in a widget?

    Keep up the great work!

    Cheers
    Erni
