<?php if ( function_exists( 'vote_poll' ) && ! in_pollarchive() ): ?>
	<li>
		<h2>Polls</h2>
		<ul>
			<li><?php get_poll();?></li>
		</ul>
		<?php display_polls_archive_link(); ?>
	</li>
<?php endif; ?>

• To show specific poll, use <?php get_poll(2); ?> where 2 is your poll id.
• To show random poll, use <?php get_poll(-2); ?>
• To embed a specific poll in your post, use [poll id="2"] where 2 is your poll id.
• To embed a random poll in your post, use [poll id="-2"]
• To embed a specific poll's result in your post, use [poll id="2" type="result"] where 2 is your poll id.

1. Go to WP-Admin -> Appearance -> Widgets.
2. You can add the Polls Widget by clicking on the 'Add' link besides it.
3. After adding, you can configure the Polls Widget by clicking on the 'Edit' link besides it.
4. Click 'Save Changes'.
5. Scroll down for instructions on how to create a Polls Archive.

1. Go to WP-Admin -> Pages -> Add New.
2. Type any title you like in the post's title area.
3. If you ARE using nice permalinks, after typing the title, WordPress will generate the permalink to the page. You will see an 'Edit' link just beside the permalink.
4. Click 'Edit' and type in pollsarchive in the text field and click 'Save'.
5. Type [page_polls] in the post's content area.
6. Click 'Publish'.

• If you ARE NOT using nice permalinks, you need to go to WP-Admin -> Polls -> Poll Options and under Poll Archive -> Polls Archive URL, you need to fill in the URL to the Polls Archive Page you created above.

• It is because of rounding issues. To make it always round up to 100%, the last poll's answer will get the remainding percentage added to it. To enable this feature, add this to your theme's functions.php: add_filter( 'wp_polls_round_percentage', '__return_true' );

• WP-Polls will load polls-css.css from your theme's directory if it exists.
• If it doesn't exists, it will just load the default polls-css.css that comes with WP-Polls.
• This will allow you to upgrade WP-Polls without worrying about overwriting your polls styles that you have created.

• To solve this issue, Open poll-css.css
• Find: /* background-color: #ffffff; */
• Replace: background-color: #ffffff; (where #ffffff should be your background color for the poll.)
