This plugin can understand two shortcodes:
<ul>
<li>[voting]</li>
<li>[voted]</li>
</ul>

Let’s look at the variants of their usage.
<ol>
<li>Simplest (and most popular) using
Just insert in your article or page this simple shortcode: 
 [voting]
This shortcode will be replaced with a voting form, which allow your visitors to rate current article or page. 
When one of the voting buttons pressed, this form will disappear, and current article rating will be shown instead.
You can also use another shortcode: 
 [voted] 
 This shortcode will just show the current article rating.
If you have administrative privileges, then, while browsing through your articles, you will see near each 
voting form the button with a title ‘You are admin. Check answers’. This button will allow 
admins to see the detailed list of all votes for this subject.
That’s all you need to know about simplest way of using the Simple Voting plugin.
</li>
<li>Voting for arbitrary subjects
If you want to allow your visitors to vote for an arbitrary subject, you must use more complex shortcode 
construction, like this: 
 [voting] Arbitrary subject name [/voting]
Such block of code could be placed in any article, and will rate the ‘Arbitrary subject name’. 
 To show the rating of the ‘Arbitrary subject name’, use following shortcode: 
 [voted] Arbitrary subject name [/voted]
</li>
<li>Voting with redirection (for experienced webmasters)
Immediately after voting, visitor (and information about his vote) could be sent to another web page – 
just include desired URL somewhere in the subject’s name.
Let’s imagine, that after voting, you want to send visitor to the URL http://somesite.com/somepage.php 
 To do so, you must write something like this:
[voting] Subject name http://somesite.com/somepage.php [/voting]
Or something like this:
[voting] 
 Another 
 http://somesite.com/somepage.php 
 subject 
 [/voting]
Or just that:
[voting] http://somesite.com/somepage.php [/voting]
Note that although in all these examples I used same URL (http://somesite.com/somepage.php), they are 
DIFFERENT voting subjects, because texts inside shortcode tags are different.
If, on some pages, you want to show just a rating of the subjects from above examples, you must use [voted] shortcode 
instead of [voting] one. Like this:
[voted] Subject name http://somesite.com/somepage.php [/voted]
[voted] 
 Another 
 http://somesite.com/somepage.php 
 subject 
 [/voted]
[voted] http://somesite.com/somepage.php [/voted]
After voting on any of these subjects, user will be sent to the given web page 
(in our examples http://somesite.com/somepage.php). To this page also will be POSTed data, containing 
following information about voting subject:</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li>sv_vote: user’s vote (from 1 to 10)</li>
<li>sv_textID: unique subject identifier, which consists of three letters and numeric ID.</li>
<li>svUserName: user name</li>
<li>svUserEmail: user’s Email</li>
<li>svUserComment: user’s comment</li>
<li>sv_nonce: one time security code, generated by the function: wp_create_nonce( ‘simple-voting’ ).</li>
</ul>

4. Database tables
Simple voting plugin stores all information just in two database tables: 
 
 {db_prefix}simple_voting_subjects 
 {db_prefix}simple_voting_votes

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.
