Do you have a question you want to ask your group? This feature allows you to ask any type of question, from what type of kit the team needs (Text poll) to what date suits your group to organise an event (Time poll).

  • You can decide if the results are visible to all members or only admins (ie. For Player of the Match)

  • You can allow members to vote for multiple options.

  • You can set a deadline for the poll to end.

  • The members can vote anonymously by pressing the down arrow in the poll.

  • You can send a friendly voting reminder, and see which members have seen the poll

  • Members can like and comment on the poll, just like a regular post.

  • You can only create polls within groups or subgroups.

  • To export, edit or delete the poll, press the down arrow in the poll

Text Poll

  • You can add a question and any additional information if needed.

  • You can add up to 30 different responses.

  • As an admin, you need to add yourself as a member to the group to be able to vote.

Time/Date Poll

  • You can suggest numerous dates and times and ask which one suits your group.

  • Using the results, you can create the event directly in the group by clicking the down arrow in the poll.

  • As an admin, you need to add yourself as a member of the group to be able to vote.

Troubleshooting

  • If you're unable to create polls, you might not have the right permissions to do so in the group. If so, contact the primary admin for your group.

  • An admin is not able to answer or change any answers to the poll on behalf of a member.

  • You need to add at least two alternative responses to be able to set a poll live.
