I am using Efiction 3.3 with the skin Safari, made by Kali. I want to add a poll to my index page but whenever I add the poll block the "index.tpl" file of the skin, this is what I get: http://www.urbanreveries.net/archive/index.php?skin=Vaako .
This is what my index.tpl file looks like once I've added the poll block:
<!-- INCLUDE BLOCK : header -->
<div id="leftindex">
<div class="block">
<div class="title">{info_title}</div>
<div class="content">{info_content}<br/>{skinchange_content}<br>{login_content}</div>
</div>
<div class="block">
<div class="title">{categories_title}</div>
<div class="content">{categories_content}</div>
</div>
<div class="block">
<div class="title">{recent_title}</div>
<div class="content">{recent_content}</div>
</div>
<div class="block">
<div class="title">{random_title}</div>
<div class="content">{random_content}</div>
</div>
<div class="block">
<div class="title">{poll_title}</div>
<div class="content">{poll_content}</div>
</div>
<div id="rightindex">
<div class="block">
<div class="title">Welcome</div>
<div class="content">{welcome}</div>
<div class="block">
<div class="title">{news_title}</div>
<div class="content">{news_content}</div>
</div>
</div>
<!-- INCLUDE BLOCK : footer -->
Any idea on what I could be doing wrong or simply not doing? Thanks in advance!
Try going to your site. Log in and go to ADMIN->BLOCKS
For Poll (since that's the latest one you added) Click Options
If it's set at Use tpl, change it to Default and click Submit (or Ok or whatever that button is labelled as)
Then check and see if thing fall into place for you.

Hummpphh... Curiously enough, the Poll block seems to be the only one that doesn't allow any options per say. When I click on the Options button, this is what I get:
And if I don't put a Poll block inside the "index.tpl" file of the skin, it won't appear on the page at all... *scratches head*
Looks to me like you didn't close the left index div before starting the right index div. Add another close div tag before the right index and see what happens.

I feel like an idiot... I'm just gonna go crawl under a rock now... π Thank you so much for getting me out of this jam, Kali!
Don't worry, I do it all the time. π That's how I was able to tell what went wrong.
