question about poll timeout

[ralgar]

hello

i would like to make the poll timeout as default for 5 days, so into the field should be written a 5 as default

how and where can i make it?

Edit this template:

Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> New Posting Templates -> newpoll

Find this code and add the red code:

		<fieldset class="fieldset">
			<legend>$vbphrase[poll_timeout]</legend>
			<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="$stylevar[formspacer]" border="0">
			<tr>
				<td>$vbphrase[automatically_close_poll_enter_days]</td>
			</tr>
			<tr>
				<td><label for="poll_timeout">$vbphrase[close_poll] <input type="text" class="bginput" name="timeout" value="<if condition="$timeout">$timeout<else />5</if>" size="5" id="poll_timeout" tabindex="1" /> <phrase 1="$polldate">$vbphrase[days_after_x]</phrase></label></td>
			</tr>
			</table>
		</fieldset>

That should work.
