My b2evolution Version: Not Entered

Hi,

I tested Democracy 2.2.0, I like it a lot, I use the pie chart, but once I click on it, it goes to this link http://www.maani.us/charts/index.php

Is there a way to disable it?

I'm pretty sure that is the deal when you use their software without paying. They're cool with using it for free, but they want it linked to their site. So basically yeah there is no "disable the linkback to free software" feature.

Thanks for the reply EdB

I suppose. I don't mind it that much if it doesn't take over my site, would be nicer if it opens a new window.

Yeah I reckon that'd be grand. My habit has been to not click on the chart ... and if I do I make a scowly-face and shake my head quickly back and forth while sending my cursor to the back button ASAP. Really. I mean, I really actually scowl at my own stupidity as I race for the back button.

BTW a deep hack could do it, where "it" is either remove the link or make it be a new window/tab, but to me wow they give away cool stuff so yeah let 'em enjoy a bit of link love.

hmmm... Actually b2evolution should give them some linkage on the main page. Cool free software giving linklove to cool free software is like open source porn eh?

We know not to click on it but the visitors might click on it unknowingly and wonder why it goes to another site. I guess the answer is in /blogs/rsc/charts.swf but the codes are encrypted

Anyhow, yet another question about this plug-in, whe I click on the View Results link, it comes up with the stats but there is no link to go back to vote.
If a visitor come to the site for the first time, click on View Results first before voting, then the visitor will not see the vote button unless he/she uses the back button or refresh. Did I install it wrong? I tried to install it a few times, but no improvement. Or could this be a over-looked in the design?

Thanks again
