Corey: On the index page the last action for some topics is fairly up to date. When you click on that topic, The last reply was a different time. Sometimes the error is as much as a couple of days.

revrnd,

Hello,

The polls on the forum work a little different than what you might expect.

The index page lists the date AND time of the last action in that particular post/poll. It does this to keep posts and polls back on top that have had some recent activity.

When you click on a poll, the last action time and date may not reflect the last post time and date, because there is a difference.

For example:

If you vote in a poll AND leave a post explaining the way you vote, let&#39;s say at 8:00pm, the last post that was made will obviously be 8:00pm.

But if I come along let&#39;s say at 11:00pm and JUST VOTE in the poll (I just voted, and left no post whatsoever), the last action of the poll will now be 11:00pm. So the index page will show the last action at 11:00pm.

But when someone clicks on the poll, the last actual post showing will still be yours at 8:00pm since all I did was just vote but I didn&#39;t leave a post. So as users scroll down the page, the last post that shows up is yours at 8:00pm.

I know it is confusing, but it does this to make sure that a poll doesn&#39;t keep getting knocked down the page EVEN though users are voting in it. The software uses the last action date and time to organize all the posts and polls.

I hope this helps explain things. If not, please reply here.

Thanks.
