No - that doesn't happen to me, I am trying to help you by finding the bit of code in question which is why i asked what exactly is the message you get because I can't find it. There is no text message like the one you quoted which is why I need the exact wording.

No - that doesn't show up anywhere in our codebase either I am afraid. Let's say that that exact string of text is not an SP message. I am still looking

Is it this:

'A Simple Press Poll can only appear in a forum post'

Which I guess means the same but it actually nothing like your text..

And is this using a shortcode somewhere?

so what version of WordPress, simple press and polls plugin?  this could occur a long time ago for wp themes doing weird things but have not seen a case of it occurring since we added a workaround for those couple of strange wp themes...

what wp theme do you use?  if you temp switch to the default wp theme, does it still occur?

can you post a screenshot of you forum - integration - page and permalink settings?
