<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.
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.
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.
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>.

MicroPoll

Easily integrate web-based polls from MicroPoll into WordPress

YOP Poll is back — completely rebuilt from the ground up.
After more than a decade of powering polls on WordPress sites, YOP Poll has been rewritten from scratch using modern web technologies. The result is a faster, more secure, and dramatically easier-to-use plugin — without losing any of the flexibility that made YOP Poll the go-to polling solution for WordPress.
Faster, end to end. The new admin interface responds instantly to your actions. Creating a poll, editing answers, switching templates, viewing results — everything happens in real time, with no full-page reloads slowing you down.
More secure by design. Internal data handling has been modernized to follow current security best practices.
Easier for everyone. The admin has been redesigned around how people actually build polls. Clear flows, sensible defaults, and fewer clicks to go from idea to published poll — whether you’re running a single quick poll or managing dozens of campaigns at once.
Safe to upgrade. All your existing polls, votes, templates, and settings migrate automatically. Nothing to export, nothing to rebuild — just install the new version and pick up where you left off.
<h4>Everything you can do with YOP Poll</h4>
<ul>
<li>Run unlimited polls at the same time, with no artificial limits</li>
<li>Schedule polls to start and end automatically — perfect for time-bound campaigns</li>
<li>Choose between single-choice and multiple-choice questions</li>
<li>Allow voters to add their own “Other” answers</li>
<li>Sort answers in any order — exact, alphabetical, by votes, ascending, or descending</li>
<li>Display results before voting, after voting, on a custom date, after the poll ends, or never</li>
<li>Show results as numbers, percentages, or both</li>
<li>Collect extra information from voters with custom fields (name, email, age, anything you need)</li>
<li>Set who can vote: guests, registered users, or both</li>
<li>Block voters by cookie, IP, or username</li>
<li>Display polls anywhere with shortcodes, widgets, or by poll ID</li>
<li>Show a random active poll, the latest poll, or any specific poll</li>
<li>Browse a full archive of past polls with statistics</li>
<li>View detailed logs of every vote, with sorting, search, and export</li>
<li>Manage bans by email, username, or IP — globally or per poll</li>
<li>Built-in protection against spam votes, including Cloudflare Turnstile support</li>
</ul>

YOP Poll


The free version of this plugin is way too limited! I understand that everybody wants to make money but to find out if a plugin will meet my needs I need a little bit more to work with. That's besideds the fact that the user interface to setup a poll is very confusing.



Lastly, when you uninstall the plugin it asks if you want to remove the plugin and all its data. Unfortunately it leaves the database cluttered with 9 wp_yoppoll_*database tables. That's not what I understand under "remove all its data"!


Too limited and does not remove all data on uninstall


I chose the pro version to have more features and I needed assistance for a problem on my server, I compliment you for the availability and precision of the assistance and having solved the problem with me as soon as I called. Great job and congratulations.


Great plugin, simple and effective

The flexible WordPress poll plugin — rebuilt for speed, security, and ease of use.
