Sorry to be a dork, but how on earth do you post a poll? I've just clicked on 'click here to manage this topic's poll' and put all the questions in, but when I click on 'close this poll', it all disappears!

What am I doing wrong?

Looks like you sorted it

Um, yes Katyjay! Realised that 'close poll' means 'delete whole thing' - which was what I kept doing, durrr...

Cheers

I still remembers when I first ask that question....

"..........Poll Options

If you have chosen to post a new poll, there will be an extra two option boxes at the top of the help screen. The first input box will allow you to enter the question that you are asking in the poll. The text field underneath is where you will input the choices for the poll. Simply enter a different option on each line. The maximum number of choices is set by the board admin, and this figure is displayed on the left.........."


This is what I found when I clicked on Help but it didn't work for me either! Mine just came up as a message - I'll try again.
For anyone who reads it, please excuse the trivial questions until I've cracked it!

Sorry folks, I was trying to help. The powers that be have deleted all my efforts. That may be the last time I offer to help.

Bye.

Hi Rosemary,

It wasn't immediately apparent to us what you were trying to do. We thought your polls were practice polls - whilst you got used to how the software works - and so deleted them as part of our usual end of the day tidy up and forums check.

A member of the moderation team should have been in touch to explain why this happened - but certainly it wasn't meant to be taken as a ticking off, more just being helpful.

If any offence was caused, we apologise and we promise not to delete any more of your polls if you want to create some more.

Best wishes

Christine
