It's  a nice manual. But unfortunately I didn't find solutions for the problems I met. Perhaps it's because I didn't explain what I want correctly. Let me try again...

I would like to use existing Poll package, recently updated by Lukas to work properly in current versions of Pier.

Eep! I hadn't seen those 8) heheh ahem  That you were using an existing package was a bit of info missing from your original post.....


There's POPoll class containing options (as instances of POPollOptions and described by MAToManyRelationDescription) along with other attributes (like deadline, uuid --- unique ID used to identify already voted users, --- etc.). POPolls were supposed to be rendered with special kinds of PRViewComponents using charts but it's a bit off-topic right now.

Voting itself is supported by POVoteCommand class, which is rendered as a form described by MASingleOptionDescription with POPollOptons as options. (I don't fully understand how it works but it obviously does:) By the way, despite unvoted POPoll has POVoteCommand as default, it is still rendered as with View (it's a question for Lukas, maybe?).

So, the question (still) is: how to join several POPolls in one form providing choices several choices (of different polls) being posted back to server by click on one button. I'm not so good in web programming so I'm not sure if it is possible at all (should those be nested forms or what?).

This is all Lukas and Phillipe's fault so I must defer to them :)

I also notice that I cannot make the Vote command visible to non-logged in users by using the ChangeOther command. Can someone shed some light on that?
