    Ours is a tagging forum. When setting the polls according to the instructions I found in a thread here I discovered that said poll will not show the image of the tags up for vote only the image url appears in the choice (voting) area. Other words I need the tag to show in the voting area not the url so folks can see what they are voting on. Tell me what I'm doing wrong. Very Happy

    Do you mean that you are adding images has choices, and those images are not appearing?

    Yes,that's what I mean I am attempting to add images/tags to the poll using the normal IMG code from Photobucket. The image should appear. Instead all I'm getting is
    Code:
    [img]whatevertheimageis[/img]
    in the choice area (where folks click to make their vote) not the image itself which should be there.

    Yeah i tested it, it dont look like you can use any coding in the poll options.
    Just text.

    I would add the images in a numbered list in the post,
    then number the poll options for what ones they want to vote for Smile
