Creating & Managing Polls

Polls are a quick way to connect with your community and gather their feedback. FluentCommunity lets you create polls right from your feed and collect valuable insights from your members in just a few clicks.

Use Case: You're planning your next live workshop and can't decide on a topic. Post a poll asking members to vote between three options, set an end date, and let the community shape your content calendar for you.

How to Create a Poll from the Global Feed

1. From your FluentCommunity dashboard, open the Global Feed.
2. Click the postcard where you normally create posts.
3. In the options that appear, click the Poll icon to open the poll creation features.

Configure Your Poll

• Topic Section: Give your poll a topic name.
• Subject Section: Enter your poll question or any text content you want to share.
• Topic: If you're creating the poll from within a specific Space, a Topic Add button lets you attach a topic you've previously saved for that Space.
• Poll Options: Add as many poll options as you like. To remove one, click the cross (X) icon next to it.
• Add More: Click the Add More button to add another option.
• Poll Settings: Check the User can choose multiple options checkbox to let members select more than one answer.
• End Date: Set how long the poll stays open. Click the date field and pick your desired date from the calendar.
• Select Space: Choose which Space to post your poll in. This option appears only when you create a poll from the Global Feed — it won't show when you start from within a specific Space.
• Send announcement email to space member: Check this box to email every member of the selected Space when the poll goes live, so no one misses the chance to vote.
• Post: Click the Post button to publish your poll.
• Cancel: Click Cancel to discard the poll.

How to Create a Poll from a Space
