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
When you post a new thread, you have the option to also create a 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:
What is your favorite color?
  1. Red
  2. Blue
  3. Yellow
  4. Green
  5. Sky-blue pink with yellow spots

To create a poll when you post a new thread, simply select the Poll tab, then you can input the question and the list of responses you wish to include for the poll.

You may also want to specify a time limit for the poll, so that (for example) it stays open for voting for only a week. There are also options to allow voters to change their votes, display votes publicly, and allow results to be viewed without voting.

Voting in and viewing a poll
To vote in a poll, simply select which option you wish to vote for, and click the Cast Vote button. You may also view the current results for the poll before you vote by clicking the View Results button.
Voting in a poll is entirely optional, you may vote for any of the available options, or cast no vote at all.
