The polls and features are great, but the only way to add a poll (that i know of right now), is to copy the code from the website and modify it to make a poll. Seems like there would be an easier way of doing this (even though it isnt that hard).
I couldn't get a rival poll extension to validate under HTML5 so went looking for a simple replacement. This is it! After a small change (described in the forums), I was able to make the code W3C compliant. By specifying "100%" width for the progress bars, the extension works well with the responsive template I am using. The instructions for the plugin syntax took longer to find than I would have liked and I didn't realise immediately that the Scriptegator plugin (also a free download) is a pre-requisite, but these are relatively minor complaints about a great free extension! Another tip is to not include the line breaks as is shown in the example plugin syntax, as these will space out your poll questions too much. Thanks!
This is by far the most user friendly and visually appealing poll plugin for Joomla 2.5.
Very easy to configure and customize - it really adds a nice touch to the website.
A great range of options - to show data on frontend (and reset in admin), change width, colour scheme, control the poll's behaviour (allowing multiple votes, for instance). I found it very easy to set up - and the GreatJoomla site has sufficient instructions.
The voting itself is much simpler from the user's perspective - no boxes to check, no buttons to press. Instant and easy.
Daniel's customer support deserves a special mention. First of all, he reacts immediately to forum posts. Same goes for contact form messages - he got back to me straight away and was incredibly helpful! My minor issue (re customization) was sorted in a matter of hours.
I look forward to testing and using other Core plugins - it is an impressive range of useful, unique and nice looking plugins.
