This is an improved Poll Application, aiming to replace the old one which, aside from not working with newer versions of XWiki, offered limited functionality and poor interaction.

This application allows to create polls of 5 types:

  • simple choice
  • multiple choice, with the possibility of limiting the number of choices per voter
  • multiple weighted choice, with the possibility of limiting the number of choices per voter: users can assign weights to the options, and the weights need to sum up to 100%
  • rating: users are asked assign ratings from 0 to MAX to all the options
  • ranking: users are asked to order the options (higher = better)

Additionally, it provides a Poll wiki macro allowing to display the results of a poll in another wiki page.

Please give the application a try to see if things work as expected. Suggestions of UI (or other) improvements are very welcome.

A new version has been uploaded, with several changes in the data structures. Polls created before this update have lost their "Question" field.
