Polls
Ova je funkcija dostupna s dodatkom za chat uživo verzije 10.2.0.
Create a poll
You can create a new poll by using the “Stvori novu anketu” action in the chat top menu:
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:
- “Pitanje”: the question to ask to you viewers
- “Trajanje ankete (u minutama)”: the duration for which viewers can vote
- “Anonimni rezultati”: 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 “Stvori novu anketu” 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.
Svaki korisnik koji nije isključen može glasati. To znači da možeš spriječiti anonimne korisnike da glasaju pomoću funkcije “Isključi zvuk anonimnih korisnika”.
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.
Anonymous viewers can only vote once they have choosen their nickname.
If “Anonimni rezultati” 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.
For viewers using XMPP clients or outdated livechat plugin versions, the banner will not be visible.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.
When the poll ends, a new message will be sent in the chat, with the results.
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.
