Creating and Managing Polls
How to create a poll

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
How to view poll results
Navigate to Admin>Manage Polls
Click on the name of a poll to view the results in the left sidebar

How to delete and expire polls
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.
