<p><a href="http://www.micropoll.com" title="MicroPoll" rel="nofollow ugc">MicroPoll</a> is a service that allows you to gather customer responses to polls on your website.</p>
<p>Normally, JavaScript code has to be inserted on each page where you want micropoll to be used. That approach requires editing of templates and including conditionals based on post ID.</p>
<p>This plugin makes it easy to incorporate the MicroPoll service in your WordPress blog without editing templates by providing a MicroPoll widget that can be used in any widget-ready theme.</p>
<p>Once you have installed MicroPoll, navigate to the configuration page and paste in your poll embed code from the <a href="http://www.micropoll.com/" title="plugin_name" rel="nofollow ugc">MicroPoll web site</a>.</p>

MicroPoll

Easily integrate web-based polls from MicroPoll into WordPress

Jakob Lenfers

<p>This addon adds buttons below your posts (or somewhere else) to make it easy to get reactions to the post, but without the hassle of writing a whole comment. It makes it easier for the reader to interact with you. The buttons are configurable (how many, what text, position) and simply are counters to how often they were clicked. There is also a widget and a shortcode to show the top x posts with the most clicks for each button.</p>
<p>The idea is inspired by a <a href="http://bloggerindraft.blogspot.com/2008/08/new-feature-reactions.html" rel="nofollow ugc">blogger feature</a> and since it’s been my first addon, I borrowed the structure from <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/sociable/" rel="ugc">sociable</a>.</p>
<h3>Restrictions</h3>
<ul>
<li>When using plugins to cache the pages, the buttons won’t be up to date. They will increment through the javascript, but when the page reloads the old count will show again, until the cache is deleted. Check the FAQ on possibilities how to change that.</li>
</ul>


Reaction Buttons

Adds buttons for very simple and fast feedback to your post. Inspired by Blogger.
