详情介绍:
Provides a seamless and flexible, interactive display option for online polls with Democracy Poll with a lot of parameters to be controlled for various display possibilities.
To be used as a shortcode alongside the poll for an interactive results display or separately just for result display purposes.
It provides and will further provide enhancements for Democracy Poll, like e.g. mixed polls (checkboxes plus radiobuttons in one poll). User fields (poll categories) can be defined and maintained in the users' profiles to provide enhanced result statistics (e.g. showing a choir's voices representation on proposed concert or rehearsal dates being polled in order to judge the ability to sing) - this was the author's initial motivation.
Fields can as well be automatized in input based on regular expressions applied on the main user's field (poll category).
Email reminders to users that didn't vote, yet. Flexible sorting options and much more. Of course: the main shortcode is made for registered users only. Give it a try!
Inspired by and enhancing: Tkama's Democracy Poll plugin.
Latest important updates:
- New from version 2.5.21.0: In the "Meta Field Defaults & Sorting" tab, sorting lists can be auto-generated for non-drop-down fields, based on the first meta field and the related regular expression, if existing.
- New from version 2.5.20.0: The meta fields can now be related to specific roles. This will influence the visibility of the meta fields in the user profiles. Furthermore, a new meta field clean-up can be performed by administrators in the "Meta Field Defaults & Sorting" tab.
- New from version 2.5.18.0: The ICS data for [foodle-create-ics] can now as well be stored in each poll\'s edit page.
- New from version 2.5.17.0: A new shortcode [foodle-create-ics] can be used to download an ics file and generate a calendar entry for events (e.g. those queried for in a poll and can therefore as well be used in a poll's text field).
- New from version 2.5.13.1: The comments display can now be limited to the user's own & admin comments (show_just_mine="true"). This can be useful in combination with the complete comments display e.g. in the Foodle table. And from version 2.5.14.0, comment email notifications can be set for each poll individually.
- New from version 2.5.12.0: Comments are now part of the Excel download.
- New from version 2.5.10.0: Individuals can be excluded from being considered as voters - regardless their role(s) - by the tab 'Special Roles & Users'. From version 2.5.9.0, the bar graph text can be edited in the Foodle settings.
- New from version 2.5.8.0: The visibility of the bar graph tooltip with users who did not vote yet can now be controlled by roles.
- New from version 2.5.7.0: Added a dynamic icon (2.5.6.0) in the Democracy poll list and edit pages to visualize the following: a) everyone voted already, b) not everyone voted so far, c) the numer of users to vote is zero or d) an unexpected voter did vote or the participation rate exceeds 100%. In version 2.5.7.0, the following visualization was added: e) NOT all (maybe the brandnew) Foodle poll parameters have been saved so far, so they are still in their programmed default state.
- New from version 2.5.5.0: A table with a list of users who did not vote so far for a poll is being displayed interactively as a tooltip when hovering with the mouse over the related bar graph (also available on touch screens: just touch the bar graph). Can be limited to administrators for each poll individually (= default). This is also available in the back end poll list an in each poll edit page (icon).
- New from version 2.5.4.0: Only voters asigned for a poll are able to vote. For each poll, entering new comments can be controlled by roles and administrators' vote option is controllable as well (since 2.5.3.0).
- New from version 2.5.1.0: A comments table preview is being displayed interactively as a tooltip when hovering with the mouse over the related green icon, which indicates that comments are available for a poll, or when touching the green icon on touch screens (since 2.5.2.0).
- New from version 2.5.1.0: A comment's preview is being displayed interactively as a tooltip when hovering with the mouse over the related green icon (or when touching it on touch screens), which indicates that comments are available for a poll.
- New from version 2.5.0.0: A new shortcode to display the participation rate of individual polls by means of a bar graph.
- New from version 2.4.0.0: Visibility Management: In each Democracy Poll edit page, the poll-related visibility of Democracy Poll, Foodle and the poll's comments can be tailored in detail depending on the users' roles.
- New from version 2.3.0.0: A new shortcode was introduced for logged-in users to collect and display user comments related to individual polls. And from version 2.3.7.0 onward, a user template for automated use in the Democracy Poll textarea is available.
- New from version 2.2.0.0: Selection of roles is now possible for polls in order to easier control reminder emails and statistics.
- New from version 2.1.0.0: A new back end tab was introduced to display the use of the Democracy shortcode and the Foodle main shortcode.
- New from version 2.0.0.0: Major release with a number of improvements and enhancements.
- For this or that choir rehearsal or planned public event to be scheduled, would sufficient Sopranos 1 or Tenors 2 be available?
- Or do the choir members support this or that idea and from which sub-group do they come from?
- Or what could be winning ideas for the next concert stage dress (Democracy Poll with answers to be brought by the voters and be displayed for everyone easy to understand) and would this spread nicely in color on stage, considering the choir's stage order?
- The interactive poll results table (shortcode [foodle-democracy-poll-list-log])
- This shortcode only makes sense and therefore only works for registered users (else: no display) and registered voters (else: message)
- All other functions work regardless this necessary restriction
- A shortcode for logged-in users ([foodle-comments]) to collect and display user comments related to individuall polls (hint: in the back end Democracy poll list and each poll edit page, when hovering with the mouse over the related icon or touching it on a touch screen, a tooltip with a comments table preview is being displayed)
- A shortcode for logged-in users ([foodle-poll-bar-graph]) to display the participation rate of individual polls by means of a bar graph (hint: when hovering with the mouse over the bar graph or touching it on touch screens, a tooltip with a list of users that did not vote yet is being displayed - the same is true in the back end Democracy poll list and each poll edit page by use of the related icon)
- Several Democracy Poll shortcodes on one page/post (like before)
- Full shortcode flexibility: Several Foodle shortcodes - even for the same Democracy Poll id with differing parameters - on one page/post

常见问题:
FAQ #1: When updating a page, an error like "Updating failed. The response is not a valid JSON response." appears. What does this mean?
This error typically appears with the "democracy" shortcode present on a page and is NOT linked to Foodle. A reason could not yet be determined, however, while unpleasant, this error is without any negative functional effect!
FAQ #2: During testing, I experienced that deleting one vote of a poll would sometines eliminate all votes. What can I do to avoid this behavior?
Your votes probably contain the same IP address, which typically happens if voters are in the same WLAN environment. For using Foodle, it is mandatory to switch Democracy's logging and storing of IP addresses on! When re-voting, Democracy would delete all votes with same IP address. In order to avoid this, you can prevent Democracy from storing IP adresses in the Foodle area of each poll admin page.
FAQ #3: I have a few brilliant ideas to further enhance this plugin. What should I do?
That's great to hear! Just contact the plugin author to propose your ideas :)!
