motomac Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 It's an old problem, but it's still not fixed. The support team considers it as intended behavior. The problem Somebody creates a new topic with a poll. People vote on it. Later topic starter adds another new question (without removing an existing one). People who already voted on this topic can't answer the new question. Dear Invision team, please, consider changes in this logic. Personally, my users and I face this problem very often. And I'm sure it would be more expected behavior. Thank you!
The Britain Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 Personally, I think it makes sense. You could easily rig a poll by adding two similar options and then adding a dissenting option later. Maybe add an option? This shouldn't be default behavior though.

Actually he specifically asked for an opinion.
motomac Posted September 11, 2017 Author Posted September 11, 2017 @The Britain sorry, I don't clearly understand your post. If you are talking about falsifying the results by the topic starter it's anyway very easy right now. He can simply rename answers. Maybe the question in this poll is not enough detailed, but I described the full picture in the first post. The poll should be considered as its part.
Canis Posted September 16, 2017 Posted September 16, 2017 I would prefer they first fix the current flaw that allows guest to view poll results. This was fixed many years ago i 2.x, but have been introduced again i 4.x. The " Users can view the results before voting? " setting does not make sense as it is now, it's just to log out to see the result.
