Creating and Managing Polls

- Complete the required information, noting the following:
- Poll Details: You are not required to use each answer field.
- Time Release Options: This is when the poll will open and close
- You can edit a poll until it has been taken by one user. Then it is locked.
- When a poll has been set up, it will appear in the left sidebar for all targeted users
- Users simply click on the radio button that represents their choice and click Vote
- Poll results will be displayed in the left sidebar
- Navigate to Admin>Manage Polls
- Click on the name of a poll to view the results in the left sidebar
- Polls that are closed will display in red
You can delete or expire polls. Deleting a poll removes it from the system; expiring a poll ends it and lets you view the results.
- To delete a poll, tick off the check box beside any poll title and click Delete Selected.
- If you have a poll that has run long enough or you have sufficient responses, or you forgot to set a poll finish, you can expire the poll to end it. Tick off the check box beside any poll title and click Expire Selected.
- Neither deleting nor expiring polls can be undone.
