New voting feature: Track voting participation
We need to be able to see who has participated in a poll without seeing their votes. Please create a new feature that tracks member participation while simultaneously keeping their votes anonymous. I manage multiple associations and board members always want to know which members have participated in voting polls.

Remove Default 2nd option
Remove the default 2nd option for polling in case there is only 1 person and you need to still have a vote count or there is one person and you allow OTHER so members can write someone else in.

Create a separate role for Poll Manager to allow for managing polls
Thanks for a great product! It would be great if permissions for managing POLLS could be separated out as is currently done for Membership Manager, Events, etc. - This granularity of control would allow full admins to more easily and dynamically manage access to sensitive polls while they are still gathering votes. This would also allow us to delegate polling responsibilities to volunteers or other members to whom we do not wish to grant the role of Membership Manager. Thanks for any consideration you may be able to give this suggestion.

More flexible formatting for polls
Poll formatting is very limited and can only be changed by means of CSS. Even so, it is difficult to figure out which classes to write CSS for.
1. Questions are formatted with H2. This is wrong. Just because the only hierarchical level currently above the question is the page title does not make a question a header!
2. H* formats should be reserved for real headers, such as section headers (see https://forums.wildapricot.com/forums/308932-wishlist/suggestions/42891228-support-dividing-questions-into-sections-in-polls).
Possible solutions:
1. Provide a rich-text editable template as is done for some other forms, like invoices, where one can apply standard formatting for all polls. …1 vote -
Support dividing questions into sections in polls
Polls / surveys often include groups of questions on a particular topic. It would be helpful if polls could be a bit more structured, allowing the questions to be divided into sections with a heading for each section.

Poll Announcement Send Time
Can you add a poll announcement email send time. As of now it goes out at midnight and some of our members would prefer it goes out during daytime hours.

Revise mandatory two-answer minimum
Polls - currently, the system mandates two answers. In our instance, we're using the poll for elections, and have some positions with a single candidate and a write-in option. So each today has three choices: The candidate's name, Write-In, and Other. Our fear is they will choose "write-in" and not be able to conclude there is no write-in functionality with that choice. It would be crazy-town if "write-in" wins the election!

Delete Individual Poll Results
There needs to be a way to delete individual poll results. On rare occasions there may be a duplicate entry or the administration may wish to test the poll right after publication. In both of those cases, it would be very helpful to be able to have the administration be able to delete an individual result.

Enable Proxy Voting for formal Votes (boards)
Allow Proxy Voting on Polls
We want to use the Poll feature for Board votes, but sometimes a board member can't go online but gives their Proxy to the Board Secretary to Vote on their behalf. So, we need Admin access to add Votes on behalf of specific Voters, without having to Login to their user account. The Proxy vote on behlf of a designated Voter should be registered to that User Account and record Who (which User with Admin priv. cast the Proxy Vote).16 votes -
Offer Multiple Announcement Emails
Enhance polling capability to allow for multiple "announcement emails" similar to the event announcement capabilities. This would enable us to invite members to take the poll and not send the email to members that have already taken the poll.

Don't require 2 values with radio button option.
I think it would be helpful if there were the option to enter 1 value plus the allow suggestion/other field when using the radio button option in polls. That way members could be required to select either/or the one nominee or the write in field.
Thanks!

Introduce Min amount of replies required per poll to complement the max amount of replies
As a result of the Covid- 19, face-to-face voting held during AGMs will have to be replaced by online voting.
Despite that the polls functionality is fantastic, we are not able to make use of it. Currently, the system allows you to enter the maximum number of responses required by the respondent. Is there no possibility of introducing the minimum amount? Example: Minimum no of replies is 4, maximum is 7.
Thanks in advance for looking into the matter.

is there a way to link the polls that we create? when i go to link something, i am able to insert a website or email address, find a page, or link to an event, but there is no option for me to link a poll unless i leave the page, go to the polls, copy the poll link, go back to the page destination and then link.
or is there a quicker option?4 votes -
Poll Changes
Polls:
- Need to have ability to make basic text edits even once the poll has gone live.
- Need to have ability to export results to excel or word.
- Need to have ability to send reminder for polls but only to those who have not responded.
- If can't send above reminder then need to have ability to download to spreadsheet those who already responded we can manually remove them and send email.Overall polls are not useful in their current form and have caused me more work. Until changes are made I will not use them in…

Data Needed for Determining Polling Results
The Polling functionality should include the number of individuals the poll was sent to. This information is required when calculating the percentage of votes received to determine results.

Free-text answer / Open-ended question
Polls are great for structured questions, but in the annual awards we run they start with an open 'nominations' process, where a free-text input is required. The current option for 'other' doesn't really work for us in that scenario and I'd really like to be able to keep members within Wild Apricot rather than have to go and use Survey Monkey or something. Thanks for listening!

Randomize answer choices in polls
Add the option to randomize the order of answer choices in a poll. This is important because the order of answer choices (such as candidates for office) can influence how often they are chosen. Other polling programs allow answer choices to be randomized in each individual poll. The result of this is that each answer choice appears as the first option in the list approximately the same number of times (across all polls completed).
