A..5 Poll List

The Poll List Admin Tool brings you to a list of all polls, both attached to stories and unattached. To use this Admin Tool, you must have the list_polls perm (A.12.23) active for your group.

There are four columns, two with headings.

The first column contains the poll's question and the number of votes. Clicking on the question brings you to the poll edit form, as described in appendix A.4; clicking on the ``Vote'' link brings you to a page where you can vote in the poll.

The second column contains the date and time of the last change to the poll, not counting votes or comments being added.

The third column contains actions that can be performed on the poll. If the poll is attached to a story, the action is ``Unattach'', which dissociates the poll from the story and comments it was previously attached to, and the poll then becomes a ``floating'' poll. If the poll is the current front/section page poll, the action is ``Remove from Main'', which removes the poll from the front and section pages and makes it a ``floating'' poll. If the poll is currently a ``floating'' poll, the action is ``make main'', which designates that poll as the new current front/section page poll. If there was already a main poll when this action was performed, the previous main poll is converted to a ``floating'' poll automatically.

The fourth column contains links to delete the poll.
