As per my mail to you, I have re-set your permissions via a different route than previously. Although you didn't reply, it looks as if it has at least solved part of the problem.... your post here went through without requiring Moderator approval. As I said previously, your feedback helps tell us whether or not we are making any progress. What would now help is if you can confirm that your posts also go through OK in the section of the forum where you first noticed the problem.
I will in the meantime apply this potential solution to one of the other accounts having the same problem as a further test. I'm not saying this solves all your problems... but we have to take these things in steps.I keep six honest serving-men (they taught me all I knew); Their names are What and Why and When and How and Where and Who.

Now I'm confused. This thread from Ray was originally querying why he could not see who "liked" his posts... not whether he could see who had voted on a poll. When I indicated that the two things were linked... that is the case in that the permissions to vote (in the forum set-up) apply universally to the ability to vote in a poll and the ability to cast a "like" vote. That is, if the voting option for polls is disabled (it isn't) then it also disables the option to "like". That's the only reason I asked Ray to check both things.
Ray's problem with not seeing who can like his posts is not the same thing as an inability to see who has voted in a poll. That's two different things.
Please can you clarify in simple terms whether you do or do not have a problem with viewing who has voted in a poll. From what you said in your other post (linked below), it seems to be working properly as far as I can tell:

When any user sets up a poll, they have the choice of whether or not to make the votes public. When I set up my poll, I chose not to. That is, I did not put a tick in this box at the time I set up the poll:
By contrast, when you set up your poll, you did tick that box. That's the difference between my poll and yours. You and I made different choices when we set them up. What I am tying to explain is even when that box is ticked, it does not automatically display the people icons that allow everyone to see who has voted. It makes that possible, but only happens in one of two circumstances:
1. After someone has voted.... or
2. If they take a "sneak preview" by clicking on the "Show Results" button before they have voted.I keep six honest serving-men (they taught me all I knew); Their names are What and Why and When and How and Where and Who.

OK... no problem. From what I can see, your posts are going through without needing to be approved in this and other sections. Just carry on posting and if the problem still exists elsewhere, then let me know.Rhode Island
