Hey folks.
A couple weeks ago on my forum i added the first poll, now 6 weeks into the duration a few members asked if i could add a "don't care" option to the poll so i did. Unfortunately i didn't know this would reset poll results. Now i know results are probably stored in the db like everything else, and i do have a recent full host backup (all files and db).
If i restore the site backup somewhere, which tables and entries would i have to "transplant" to recover poll vote counts per option and the member names? If i can just use an sql viewer to recover them that's fine too. As long as i'm able to recover the votes. I have the topic results from
