Re: [xwiki-users] organize vote with XWiki
The Polls app does support adding new topics/votes/etc easily, and is a nice merging of a poll into a wiki-document. The only annoying thing is that it requires edit privs in the Polls space where the code exists, or at least in the space holding the the polls. This is because the Polls space is the default location for the poll documents to be created. It would be nice if it was an option to hide the voting record (it displays who voted for what). It also allows people to change their vote up till the end of the polling period, which should be an option as well. If you wanted to poll people without having them registerlogin (or expose their vote), you'd need to make the Polls space publicly writable by using Rights to edit XWikiPreferences specifically for the Polls space, selecting users option, and selecting edit for Unregistered Users. A different Space could be used to hold the polls, (which is good, you wouldn't want unregistered users editing the Polls templates/code/etc), but I don't believe that space is selected by default in the Polls.WebHome option-menu for selecting the location for the new poll to reside. This will need to be documented or edited to hard-code a specific publicly-alterable space, although this is an admin or poll-taker's issue. If unregistered users can edit a particular space containing Polls in order to enter a vote, wouldn't they also be able to edit the polls themselves? What's the right way of resolving this issue for XWiki apps? I guess making each public polll-document world editable, rather than making the entire space world-editable makes the most sense. However, in that case, a nonregistered user could still manually enter the bin/edit rather than bin/view URL and edit the poll data. If anybody has suggestions on the correct way to handle security issues and have a working Polls app, I'm interested. The polls app contains the following docs, fyi: Polls.WebHome Polls.CreatePoll Polls.PollEditSheet Polls.PollMetaClass Polls.PollOptionClass Polls.PollSheet Polls.PollTemplate Polls.PollViewSheet Polls.PollVoteClass . -- Niels http://nielsmayer.com On Fri, Feb 20, 2009 at 4:46 AM, Vincent Massol vinc...@massol.net wrote: On Feb 20, 2009, at 1:21 PM, pkernevez wrote: Hi, We are using XWiki for the http://jugl.ch JUGL .

Re: [xwiki-users] organize vote with XWiki
The Poll application do what we need, but does exist a way for giving user the right to vote but not to edit the poll and, mainly, change other user votes? When I remove the edit right, users cant vote any more.
