Viewing poll results... - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

is there any way to add a "view poll results" link to threads w/polls? sometimes polls are geared towards a particular group (for example: men or women only) but i'm sure everyone is curious to see the results. adding such a link would enable everyone to see the results without having to color a poll meant for a particular demographic with their vote.

There is a link for that. It's in the lower right corner of the poll box. I think that the problem is that one of the style sheets has the link color set to be very close (identical?) to the background color. Try highlighting the whole box and see if the link shows up. If not, get back to me and I'll see what I can figure out.

edit: I checked your settings using my magical moderator options, and determined that your problem is, in fact, the Dark Cloud style sheet. Highlighting it doesn't work. When viewing a poll, there will be a white box with a black box inside of it. Immediately below that black box is a link that will turn bluish purple when you roll your mouse cursor over it. I have included two pictures here to clarify. The screenshot did not display the mouse pointer, but rest assured that the link is visible when the mouse is over it.
