XF 2.1 How to create a poll

[PeteMarko]

I'm sure creating a poll in my forum is not complicated, however, I cannot find any information to do so? I searched the user manual using the word 'poll" with zero results?

Start by creating a new thread, then select Post a poll.

If you don't see the above check the group permissions.

How do we add more than one question?

 

[PeteMarko]

No response so I will take it multiple questions are not possible, disappointing!

 

[beerForo]

Make sure you set your proper maximum in acp and on the frontend just click to add a question.

 

[PeteMarko]

By ACP (admin control panel) I don't see any reference to Polls anywhere, Not sure I am in the right area?

 

[beerForo]

Search poll at the top of acp.

 

[PeteMarko]

I see poll choices (answers), nothing about questions allowed

 

[beerForo]

Yes, sorry. You would need development or an add-on.

In a thread not a post! There's tabs. Poll has to be enabled in acp.

Forum and thread types | XenForo

The basic structure of a forum is a container for threads, those being a collection of posts, but from version 2.2 onwards, XenForo allows that model to be extended to support a variety of different behaviours.
