How to start a poll

[Father Ted]

Just having a look and can't see how to start a poll

First create a new post with the title of your poll, before posting scroll down to additional options and there should be one called post a poll click on this and you will be taken to a further list of options to create the poll.
Once you have the settings as you want them you just press 'submit reply' button and there it should be

If you scroll right down the posting page you will see an option to add a poll (when starting a new thread in this area) tick the box making sure you have filled in the reply box before hand, you will then be taken to a screen with the boxes to insert your options remember to fill in the question box for your poll and the options you wish people to have finally you may see a box asking how many days for the poll to run entering 0 (zero) will mean the poll stays open indefinately. Next should just be a case of submitting poll and it should appear in here.
