New Poll Themes Added!
Monday, August 04, 2008
We've added 8 new pre-defined poll themes for users looking for professional and aesthetically pleasing poll styles without the need to create custom CSS. We now have a total of 20 pre-defined poll themes designed to match just about any website, blog, or social page on the web.
For those who still prefer a custom style, our popular online theme designer has been updated with a functional and convenient color picker tool. Now you can either enter in your color manually, or choose one from an onscreen color pallet.
If you have any suggestions for additional pre-defined poll themes or enhancements to our theme designer, please let us know!
New Features Added to Poll Authority
Friday, August 01, 2008
We want to thank everyone who provided feedback and suggestions during our Public Beta release over the last couple of weeks. Thanks to your suggestions, we've added several new and exciting features to Poll Authority!
- Poll Queuing
Many of you have been asking for the ability to Queue polls so you wouldn't have to manually change out your script when you wanted a new poll to display. We're happy to announce we've addressed this issue with our brand new Poll Queuing system!
A new link (Queue) has been added to your main control panel, adjacent to the My Polls link. Clicking the Queue link will take you to our queue management screen where you can create new queues or manage existing ones. Simply create a few polls, add them to your queue, and paste the script generated to your website (or blog) and our system will handle the rest.
- Image Media
We've added the ability to add an image to your poll question (now you have the option of video or a static image).
- Set Starting Vote Counts
This feature is ideal for users porting polls from existing solutions over to Poll Authority. Rather than lose the vote counts already gathered, you can set the counts directly so your poll continues where it left off.
- Poll Duplication
You can now duplicate (copy) polls. This is ideal when a poll has been locked or if you wish to have a new poll take on the same characteristics of an existing poll.
We have several new and exciting features lined up for our next release, including the ability to add media to each individual answer. Thank you for all your feedback and helping us to make Poll Authority the definitive polling solution on the web!
