Polls & Voting
Multi-option polls with live results, timers and a public or anonymous vote.
What it does
Multi-option polls with live results. /poll create makes one, members vote with the buttons, and /poll result shows the standings. /poll end closes one early, /poll cancel scraps it, and /poll list shows what's currently running.
Making a good poll
- Details, image, colour: add a line of context, a picture and an embed colour (dashboard โ Polls โ Create). In
/poll create, extra lines under the question become the details. - Your own emojis: start an option with an emoji โ
๐ Pizzaโ and it replaces ๐ฆ ๐ง ๐จ on the button. - Anonymous: members see counts only; mods can still check names with
/poll result. - Hide results until it ends: the bars stay hidden, so early votes don't sway the rest.
- Pick up to N: cap how many options each member can choose in a multiple-choice poll.
- In
/poll createthese go in the Settings box, in any order:single,anonymous,hidden,max 3. - Every vote gets a private โ receipt, and when a poll ends the bot posts the winner (or the tie) right under it.
Worth knowing
- Polls persist โ a restart doesn't lose votes or forget to close a poll. Polls that ended more than 90 days ago are cleared out automatically.
- For decisions that matter, close the poll yourself with
/poll endrather than leaving it open indefinitely. Open polls quietly stop being trustworthy as membership changes. - For opinions you want discussed rather than counted, Suggestions is the better tool โ it has approve/deny and a comment trail.
