Im pretty new at this and im trying to figure out where this line has to go inside the poll without shattering the thing, if you guys can point it out for me it would be great!

this is just for you guys to point me where the little thing goes.

Ask me to make the poll for you

Sure

Reply to me if you want

Whqt do you want in the poll?

It’s the broken [ ] usage, you’re missing a ].

[poll type=multiple results=always min=1 max=1
chartType=bar]

  • Want thjs gamemode
  • Dont want this gamemode
    [/poll]

Here ya go

I sent it to you

where?

"[poll type=regular results=always chartType=bar]

3 [Mini airfield placement]

  • [Smaller island with a regular runway in it]
  • [No mini/forward airfield]
  • [Map dependant (some maps may have none or some sprinkled in)]
  • [I don’t want this gamemode]

[/poll]"

“Mini airfield placement”

[poll type=regular results=always chartType=bar]

  • Smaller island with a regular runway in it
  • No mini/forward airfield
  • Map dependant (some maps may have none or some sprinkled in
  • I don’t want this gamemode
    [/poll]=getrid of this bit=
    The part in the =

In this, there’s a misplaced [ or a lost ]

Besides that it was a syntax/formatting error.

Poll1
  • Yes
  • No
0 voters
Poll2
  • Yes
  • No
0 voters
[poll type=regular results=always chartType=bar]
# Poll1
* Yes
* No
[/poll]

[poll name=poll2 type=regular results=always chartType=bar]
# Poll2
* Yes
* No
[/poll]

You see how in poll2 theres poll name=[name].
When there is more then 1 poll you need to provide them with a unique name per poll. The error message isnt helpful with telling you specifically what the issue is.

In your case you must have a second poll somewhere so id recommend going back and adding a name to each of the polls

Its the [ in the poll title most likely

Hi, I’m getting a similar error message when I try to upload:

I have a ton of polls set up like this:

I think it might be something wrong in the name=[name] section, but I honestly wouldn’t know. If you or anyone else would be able to tell me, I’d greatly apreciate it!

Nvm I fixed it, it was a problem with the naming because there were spaces in between. I got confused and thought the name=[name] hade to be the exact same as the shown poll name. It was the middle of the night oke
