How to Create and Vote in Forum Polls

[Lappy]

You may notice that some threads on this forum also include a section where you can vote on an issue or question.  These threads are called 'polls' and this is how to create them:


Creating a New Poll

   •   In the Forum Section that you want to put the poll in, click on "POST NEW POLL".  This function allows you to ask a question and specify a number of possible responses.  Other members will then be able to vote for the response they want, and the results of the voting will be displayed in the thread.

   •   An example poll might be:

        What is your favorite color?
           1.  Red
           2.  Blue
           3.  Yellow
           4.  Green
           5.  Sky-blue pink with yellow spots

   •   To add a poll to a thread you just made, click the "add poll" button.

   •   Specify the question and the list of responses you want to include.


Voting In and Viewing a Poll

   •   To vote in a poll, simply select the option you want to vote for, and click the [Vote!] button.  You may view the current results for a poll before you vote by clicking the 'View Results' link.  Voting in a poll is entirely optional.  You may vote for any of the available options, or cast no vote at all.

   •   Generally, once you have voted in a poll, you will not be able to change your vote later, so place your vote carefully!
