Poll creation screw-up

Hi,

I was feeling pretty good, and decided to add a relevant poll to a post today (Living in Taiwan - “food”, etc).

Initially, the post and poll were created beautifully. Then, realizing I needed to edit the post (not the poll), I edited the post. When the post redisplayed, the poll was missing. Then I edited the post again, to put the poll back in. When I did that, the poll “options” were duplicated. I did two cycles of this before realizing the “hole was getting deeper” and stopped. :wink:

Long story short, it didn’t work right. Any suggestions for how to do this right next time? Is it even possible/advisable to edit a post with a poll attached (if no one has voted yet)?

Thanks,

Seeker4

I just started a poll and went to add a little P.S. to my message. After editing the message, not the poll, the entire poll was deleted and now the thread is pointless:

I hope the mods will delete the thread as I’ve requested.

I had the same experience. Methinks it’s a bug in phpBB

The Poll Fixing Guru is Maoman – but I think he’s pre-occupied this week.

If anyone finds a fix over at www.phpBB.com before I do, please send me the URL

Cheers

Poll trouble here too.
The poll in my ‘racoon gif’ thread was coming along nicely then all of a sudden it just disappeared without trace. Bloody annoying.
