 Tip: To Post A Poll
Posting a poll is fairly easy, and you can now even add a poll to your thread AFTER you have submitted it.
To post a poll: Click the "New Thread" button from whatever forum you want the poll to be in. Enter your message in the box as usual, then scroll down below the submit button and you will see some "additional options", including.... misc. options (signature, link parsing, etc), Manage Attachments (this lets you include an attachment with your post), Thread Subscription (to change your notification type to that particular thread) and then.......
Post a Poll.
Check the box next to "Yes, post a poll with this thread".
Enter the # for how many options you want in the poll.
Click Submit New Thread.
You will then be taken to another page that will allow you to fill in more details of your poll, what your poll question is, what options you want them to choose from, how long you want the poll to run, etc. Fill it all in, hit "submit" again and you are done.
To Post a Poll after you've already submitted the thread:: Find the thread you want to add a poll to, click the arrow next to "thread tools", just above the first post. A drop down list will appear. From that list select "add a poll to this thread". You will then be taken to the page to allow you to fill in the poll question, tell it how many options you want, then fill in the options, just as above. |
