Development and Contributions

• The plugin was originally developed by 2GLux.com for Joomla 2.5 and 3 with the original plugin name Sexy Polling.
• After the Sexy Polling plugin was removed from the web and the support was not continued, a fork of the plugin was migrated to Joomla 4 with the new plugin name Sexy Polling Reloaded. The migrated plugin still supports Joomla 3.10.
• Further contributions are welcome! Use the download or support link to get to the Github repository.
