Hi everyone,
I'm making a contest website and I need an addon for polls (2o options) that will allow registered users to vote
ONCE per day (per Ip address).

If you could help that will be SUPERBLY appreciated.
Thank you in advance and thanks for your time.

Really? It only lets me vote once period.

Code:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
$cookie = false;
          if(isset($_COOKIE['poll']) && is_array($_COOKIE['poll'])){
               $cookie = in_array($pollID, $_COOKIE['poll']);
          }
            if(!$cookie and !$anz and !$anz_user and isset($_POST['vote'])) {
     
               //write cookie
               $index = count($_COOKIE['poll']);
               setcookie("poll[".$index."]", $pollID, time() + (3600 * 24));


If I set $cookie = true it won't register the votes.

I changed
time() + (3600 * 24));
from
time() + (3600 * 24 * 365));

But I installed a 20 options addon for the vote so it may have altered the code. Here's the polls.php

I want voters to be able to vote once per day but right now they can only vote once period.

If I try to turn cookies to "true" then the votes dont register.

You have to add the time of a user who voted also into the database as well since multiple-votes of loggedin users are not prevented only by cookies but also via database. Then check if the vote was made <=24h ago - if so delete the Users Voteinformation from the database so he can vote again.

I'm not sure how to do this... is there a available addon? If not could I request this?
