<p>Some strings are not translated when polls and surveys are embedded. You will have to translate them using a language pack on <a href="https://crowdsignal.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">Crowdsignal.com</a>.</p>
<p>Development of the plugin takes place in <a href="https://github.com/Automattic/crowdsignal-plugin" rel="nofollow ugc">this GitHub repository</a>. Contributions are welcome!</p>
<h3>The Classic Editor</h3>
<p>If you are a long time user of this plugin and you still use the classic post editor, the best way to create polls is through your <a href="https://app.crowdsignal.com/dashboard/" rel="nofollow ugc">Crowdsignal account</a> where you have a number of different ways to share polls (and surveys). However, up to version 2.2.6, this plugin had an “Add Poll” button above the post editor that opened a very basic poll editor. That “Add Poll” button has since been removed but if you would still like to use it, open up the wp-admin dashboard on your WordPress site. Add “admin.php?page=polls&action=create-poll” to the end of the URL, after “wp-admin/” so it looks like https://example.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=polls&action=create-poll and you will see the old poll editor. Bookmark that URL if you still want to use that poll editor. We do not recommend using version 2.2.6 of the plugin as you will miss out on many bug fixes and new features added since then.</p>

Great polls solution with a very nice UI!

Great polls solution

Первым делом, я хотел бы отметить, что требование авторизации и покупки подписки для использования полной функциональности плагина может быть неприятным для многих пользователей. Ведь, как правило, люди ищут бесплатные решения и не хотят тратить деньги на каждый плагин, который им может понадобиться.

Кроме того, существует множество бесплатных аналогов, которые могут предоставить функциональность опросов и рейтингов, без необходимости авторизации и покупки подписки.

Также, я хотел бы отметить, что многие пользователи могут не быть готовыми предоставлять личные данные, такие как имя и адрес электронной почты, для регистрации на сайте, используемом плагином. Это может вызвать определенные проблемы в связи с конфиденциальностью и безопасностью данных.

В целом, я бы рекомендовал изучить все доступные варианты, прежде чем принимать решение о покупке или использовании данного плагина. 

Самый ужасный и бесполезный
