Coaches can easily create polls within posts, enabling members to vote on various topics and share their opinions. Whether you're looking to gather feedback, make decisions, or spark discussions, polls provide an interactive way to engage with the community.

Web platform

Create a poll post

When creating a new post, you have the option to create a poll. Simply click on it to add your question and voting options.

You won't be able to enter duplicate options or exceed 255 characters for a single option.

Advanced Settings

Under the Advanced Settings, you can allow members to vote for multiple options in the post or enable them to add their own options.

Add another option

Once the poll is posted, all forum members will be able to see it. The post owner can add additional options even after the poll is live. You can include up to 25 options in a poll.

Delete options

To delete an option in a poll, simply hover over the option and click the 'x' button.

Note:

  • The post owner and forum owner can delete all options in a poll post, regardless of whether they have received votes or not.

  • Other members can only delete their own added options if those options have not received any votes.

View option details

You can view the percentage of each option, with the option receiving the highest votes highlighted.

When you click on the percentage of each vote, you will see who voted for it.

Edit a poll post

You can edit all information in a poll post if the post has received no votes yet. However, you can only edit the caption and question once the poll post has received votes.

Notifications

The post owner will receive a notification when a member adds or deletes an option to their poll if the "New posts and reactions" setting is selected.


Coach app

Create a poll post

When creating a new post, click the poll icon to add a poll. You can adjust the Advanced Settings to your preferences, just as you would when creating a poll from the web.

Edit a poll post

You can easily edit a poll post after it’s posted, allowing you to add or remove options as needed.

View option details

Clicking on the percentage of each vote allows you to see who voted for it.


What your clients experience

Clients cannot create a poll but can view and vote on a poll post.

  • If the option to allow multiple choices is enabled for that poll, they can select multiple options. Otherwise, they can only choose a single option.

  • If the option to allow members to add options is enabled, they can add their own options.

Clients can delete their added option in the poll post if their option has no votes. They can also view the detailed selection of each option by tapping on the percentage number of each option.
