Feature request

Define you some feature requirements instead of a possible usage scenario and we'll see what happens :)

bring me shrubbery must be one that looks nice and is not too expensive

Ni!

Basically allow users to post polls in forums with either radio (single selection) or check box (multiple selection) lists. Then they can submit their vote and/or view the results, which would show either a total number of votes next to each option or if you want to get really nifty, a bar graph.

The option to post it to the front page (which is not something I had in mind, but I'm sure at some point it may become useful) or to put on any other page module we want would be good too.

I thought it would just be turning on a "poll" module in whatever backend you're using. But, maybe it's as difficult as estimating the unladen airspeed of an African swallow.

I think I figured out a good way to do this. They won't show up the same way as forum posts, but it should make sense!

* Who should be able to create polls?
* Should people be able to cancel or change their votes?

I'll let Jeff and Pete figure out that first question -- I wanted it to poll for events to run at pursuit night.

For the second question, sure! I don't know how hard it is to enable/disable that, but maybe it could be a checkbox (like the allow comments on posts)? The person making it can decide if people can cancel/change votes and/or see results prior to voting.

If that's a hassle, I really don't have any strong feelings about it.

Thanks man!

Sweet! You rock
