How to create a poll in a three easy steps?
- Open some article to editation (or create a new one).
- Insert the following code to your article:
{minipolls id="thisJoomlaInstallationWas" title="This Joomla! installation was..."}
Absolutely simple||
Reasonably easy||
Not straight-forward but I worked it out||
I had to install extra server stuff||I had no idea and got my friend to do it||
My dog ran away with the README ...
{/minipolls} Each poll option is separated by "||" (two vertical pipe charactes). - Save the article.
Do not forget to set the "id" attribute. Your poll is recognized by this unique identifier.
How to set a custom poll title?
Just specify the "title" attribute.
{minipolls title="This Joomla! installation was..."}
I want to change the theme. How can I do that?
All themes are based on a famous jQuery UI ThemeRoller and distributed by Core Design Scriptegrator plugin. There is an "uitheme" attribute (inline override) so don't be afraid to use it. {minipolls uitheme="ui-lightness"}
or
{minipolls uitheme="vader"}
How do I adjust the poll width?
Core Design Mini Polls plugin is a very flexible piece of work. If you wanna change the poll width (each poll has 250px width by default), use a "progressbar_width" override. {minipolls progressbar_width="300px"}
{minipolls progressbar_width="15em"}
{minipolls progressbar_width="60%"} You can use any of available CSS notation.
Is there a way how to enable multiple votes on the same poll?
"multiple_voting" attribute does the trick. {minipolls multiple_voting="1"}
