Poll

Hi ,

Can we create a new poll component using custom code.  The requirement is to create a custom poll component which will have features like the below

1. Voting  using a custom button using ajax calls to save the data(Not using the forums.widget.polls component).

2. Change the look and feel of polls choices

3. Button to create new Poll (With options to add choices)

Basically I am looking for any API's to save the data like poll choices/create new polls. For retrieving the poll choices/active polls, we have API's.

Thanks in Advance,

Deniz

    Can we create a new poll component using custom code.

    Of course =), we have implemented complex custom polling/voting components for our customers, using only Lithium for configuring/storing voting information (e.g., no external API's except for sending custom emails to confirm votes)...but as you might imagine, it's definitely a bit challenging due to the lack of official persistent "storage" solutions on the lithium platform...

    Feel free to contact us if you need help with your customization!
