I have a problem with a poll where votes are not saved. Users get the message 'Please answer all remaining questions' when there are no questions remaining.

The poll only has two questions but 150+ options for each one. I have deleted the poll and created again from scratch but with the same result. I have a similar poll running successfully but with only 50 answers for each of the two questions. Could there be a problem with the number of answers?

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Just a wild guess, but do you have Suhosin installed on your site? Suhosin is a patch for PHP to improve the security. It also limits the amount of data in a POST request, a problem that we had before.

bye, Dirk

I had read that question and had already modified htaccess with:

php_value suhosin.request.max_vars 2048
php_value suhosin.post.max_vars 2048
php_value suhosin.get.max_vars 2048
php_value suhosin.cookie.max_vars 2048

although my phpinfo page does not show Suhosin as installed.

However, I now find that my first poll that was working correctly no longer works showing the same problem. It was working fine until I put up the new poll.

I have accessed the MySQL directly and see that there are no strange entries in gl_polltopics, gl_pollquestions, and gl_pollanswers

Could the Polls plugin be sending the variables from both forms although one is not open for voting?

UPDATE

Answer: I don't think so. I have deleted the new poll but the old one after having worked successfully registering votes no longer works although it's now the only poll on the site.
