Hi,
I wouldn’t say this is a huge issue, but something that may be worth being aware of.
Whilst experimenting with the poll functionality this evening I initially assumed that the range was set at 1 to 20. I then noticed that increasing the _step_ had a bearing on the _max_ - which in turn, if you select the highest value has a bearing on the _step_ - repeat this about 4 (I think) times and you can achieve this;
The whole browser locked up, presumably whilst hundreds more options were being dynamically added to the drop down menus. Eventually, given enough time, it responded again and I was quick to set it to something lower, but I’m guessing potentially I could keep raising these values to a literal breaking point.
As I say, it’s not a massive issue, who would be silly enough to do this anyway right? (me! /waves) - I was actually in the process of writing a little guide on how to put the polls into your posts when I started _experimenting_.
Any reason these are drop down menus and not just text boxes with some validation that a number has been entered?
Oh, and as I am writing this in the context of the world revolving solely around myself 😉 - I’ll add that having the _Show Who Voted_ option in a different order for the _Number Rating_ poll type compared to the _Single Choice_ and _Multiple Choice_ is playing havoc with my OCD (CDO)…! 🙂

Just spotted that when choosing the _Multiple Choice_ type, you can select the _Min_ value equal to the total number of options - meaning a user would have to select everything on the poll.

Hmm definitely a bug, can you fix @tgxworld?

Wasn’t sure if this was supposed to go under _support_ of directly into the _plugins_ category, my apologies if not in the right place Jeff.
(and for my meddling and generating more problems!)
