|
||||
This feature comes with the livechat plugin version 10.2.0.
|
||||
{{% /notice %}}
|
||||
|
||||
## Create a poll
|
||||
|
||||
You can create a new poll by using the "{{% livechat_label new_poll %}}" action in the chat top menu:
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
{{% notice warning %}}
|
||||
This poll feature should not be considered as a reliable voting system.
|
||||
It is easy to cheat.
|
||||
There is no mechanism to prevent anonymous users to vote multiple times by just reloading the chat.
|
||||
Votes are never fully anonymous, someone having access to the server could see who voted for what choice.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### Poll form
|
||||
|
||||
Fill the form fields:
|
||||
|
||||
* "{{% livechat_label poll_question %}}": the question to ask to you viewers
|
||||
* "{{% livechat_label poll_duration %}}": the duration for which viewers can vote
|
||||
* "{{% livechat_label poll_anonymous_results %}}": if checked, votes won't be publicly visible in the chat
|
||||
* "Choice N": choices that will be presented to viewers
|
||||
|
||||
You must at least fill the two first choices fields.
|
||||
|
||||
Once you submit the form, the poll will instantly start.
|
||||
|
||||
If there was a previous unfinished poll, it will end and its result will be shown.
|
||||
|
||||
### Access rights
|
||||
|
||||
Every room's admins can create a new poll.
|
||||
|
||||
When you promote someone as room admin or owner, they gets instant access to the "{{% livechat_label new_poll %}}" action.
|
||||
|
||||
When you remove admin or owner rights to someone, they can't create new poll. But any existing poll will continue until it ends.
|
||||
|
||||
Every user that is not muted can vote.
|
||||
This means that you can prevent anonymous users to vote by using the ["{{% livechat_label livechat_configuration_channel_mute_anonymous_label %}}" feature](/peertube-plugin-livechat/documentation/user/streamers/moderation).
|
||||
|
||||
## Poll workflow
|
||||
|
||||
When the polls starts, a first message will be sent in the chat, from the account of the user creating the poll.
|
||||
|
||||
A banner will also appear to show the poll, and will be updated regularly with the current votes.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Viewers can then vote by clicking on their choice, or by sending message like "!1" in the chat.
|
||||
|
||||
Votes counts will be updated regularly in the banner.
|
||||
|
||||
Viewers can change their vote at any time, just by making a new choice.
|
||||
Their precedent choice will be replaced by the new one.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
{{% notice tip %}}
|
||||
Anonymous viewers can only vote once they have choosen their nickname.
|
||||
{{% /notice %}}
|
||||
|
||||
If "{{% livechat_label poll_anonymous_results %}}" is checked, votes won't be shown to other users.
|
||||
If unchecked, votes will be publicly visible as you will see message like "!1" in the chat.
|
||||
|
||||
{{% notice info %}}
|
||||
For viewers using XMPP clients or outdated livechat plugin versions, the banner will not be visible.
|
||||
But they will see the message in the chat and will be able to vote by sending messages with their choices.
|
||||
{{% /notice %}}
|
||||
|
||||
When the poll ends, a new message will be sent in the chat, with the results.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
{{% notice info %}}
|
||||
The only way to get old polls results is to search for the poll end message in the chat.
|
||||
For now, polls results are not saved by any other means.
|
||||
So don't forget to note polls results if you want to keep them.
