It's time to start polling!
https://hivehub.dev/polls and https://peakd.com/ both supporting with more sites online soon
We previously announced the Initial version of Open Polls Protocol which aims to give the Hive community a way to vote (do a poll) on Hive that every single UI can easily integrate with, has an advanced analytics features, multiple voting qualifications, and filters. We're excited to announce that the Polls feature is now available through the HiveHub interface!
Many interfaces will be adding support for polls however at a minimum you can vote using https://hivehub.dev/polls PeakD.com has also finished their integration for seeing the results and for voting however to create a poll we still suggest hivehub.dev/polls
WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT FIRST ITERATION OF POLLS
@peak.open team to release something soon as well
@blocktrades teamCreating a poll is EASY.
Create a New Poll button.
You will also be given an option to Customize Hive post content. From here, you have a couple of options to choose from to customize the poll to your own liking such as Thumbnail URL, Community, and Tags.
Navigating through the Polls interface is quite straightforward. You can see all the polls created by the Hive community once you go to the Polls UI on HiveHub.
From there, you will also have an option to sort the list by clicking on the column headers (e.g. by Creation Date, End Date, Total Votes).
FILTERS
If you want to see the polls based on specific criteria such as Post Title, Poll Question, Post Author, and Author, you can use the Filter functionality as shown in the example below.
This should help you easily see polls that are more relevant to you, especially when there are already a lot of polls created by the Hive community!
VIEWING SPECIFIC POLLS
Want to see more details about a specific poll? Of course you can!
If you want to see more details about a specific poll, you simply have to click on the Question for that poll, and then a new window will load containing more information such as the current votes, tags, and additional information.
The example below is for a test poll about phone brands used. As you can see, an analytics of the voting and results is shown upon clicking of the poll question, as well as the tags and additional information.
Whether it is to create a poll for your own community or for the entire Hive community, the choice is up to you! (Or you can also make a poll to make that choice 😉). This is the time to have fun with this new tool for improved engagement, decision making, getting feedback that the Peak Open Projects team has created for the Hive community.
Head over to Polls on HiveHub and start creating your first poll today! Don't forget to share your thoughts, ideas, and, of course, your votes with the rest of the community. We are looking forward to see the creative polls you come up with.
