How to make a poll

[Bunny Summers]

This has been coming up a lot and I thought I'd make an online instruction manual using pictures on how to create a new poll:

__________________________________________________ _______________
1) Go to the Polls forum by clicking on at the top of your screen and scroll down to .
__________________________________________________ ______________
2) Click on New Thread (see picture below)


__________________________________________________ _______________
3) Add a title of the Thread and type a breif description of what you want out of the poll, or what the poll is about. (see picture below)



__________________________________________________ _______________
4) Scroll down past where you push Sumbit New Thread and there's an option that says "Yes, post a poll with this thread" . Make sure that's checked and choose the number of answers your post will have like "Yes" "No" "Maybe" could be an example. Then click on Submit New Thread to proceed to the next screen. (see picture below)



__________________________________________________ _______________
5) Then there will be information pertaining to your poll, like what the question will be and what the answers will be and what kind of poll you want (i.e. private, public, multiple choice). Fill in all that information and then click Sumbit New Poll. (see picture below)



__________________________________________________ _______________
If you've already created a thread and want to add a poll to it after the thread is made, there should be an option in Thread Tools (upper right hand corner of the thread) and then you can click Add a Poll to this Thread. Follow the step 5 above and your poll will be added to that thread. (see picture below)




__________________________________________________ _______________
Note: ONLY the person who created the thread can add the poll.
__________________________________________________ _______________
Also Note: Only the Polls forum will allow you to add a poll. If you're posting in, say, The Playground, it won't allow you to add a poll. Keep polls in the Polls forum. If you have a thread you want to make a poll with, ask a moderator or admin to move it for you and then, when they get to it, you can add a poll later.
__________________________________________________ _______________
Also, keep in mind that polls will not show up right away. Please see the following thread for more information: Help! I can't see my poll! Where'd it Go?!

No problem. Usually I make instruction manuals like these when a lot of people ask and today and yesterday there were three different topics asking how to do this. I thought this would be easier and with pictures, well...it just makes it easier for everyone.

As I said in the first post, if you don't see your post right away you need to look at this for more info: http://www.toontowncentral.com/foru...ead.php?t=18906. I did see all FIVE submissions for your polls though and I let one of them go through. LOL.

With the new site, there are new rules for Polls. All postings in the Polls Forum are subject to review before they are shown. If a poll or post does not appear after 24 hours, it's likely it was removed. See the TTC Guidelines for further info. Either way, there's no need to create multiple responses or multiple polls that say the same thing.



I need to add here, please try to keep these polls TT related, and/or something that deserves to be on the front page i.e. Which is your favorite neighborhood? These things show up on our home page. We don't want posts that say "What's your favorite: ketchup or mayonaise?" even if they are "informative" for some reason.

When you say you're on the 2nd screen, please clarify WHICH screen you're looking at so I can be specific on where you're having problems. I can see where I left some information about when you get to the screen where it says "Yes, post a poll with this thread". On that screen, to proceed to the next screen you need to click "Sumbit New Thread" to go on to the next screen. Is that where you got confused?

[Rockin Rabit]

Ok, thanks for the info.

[Good Ol Moe Toppenchomp]

yes that is where i cant go any further. do u have to enter text to submit it?

[Kenshin Himura]

If you want to reply to me please send me a private message
