The Beatles Bible - Topic: Polls! http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/getting-better/polls/ Simple:Press Version 5.2.6 Joe on Polls! http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/getting-better/polls/#p54597 Getting better http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/getting-better/polls/#p54597 Aha! There was an update to the polls plugin, and now they can be added to any post, not just the first in the thread. Look for the Add A Poll button below the text window (and let me know if you don't see the button - I presume all users can).

(I promise not to use my other account to vote twice and skew the results of any future poll!)

Not that its a big deal. A cool option to have to an already fab forum. Thank you.

Hopefully this will make the "what's your favourite song from Please Please Me/With The Beatles/etc" threads a little better.

To make a new one, if you click the Add Topic button, underneath the big next field you should see an option saying "Add A Poll". They're pretty easy to set up. I'll see if I can fix the no-show on existing topics.
