To add a poll to content:

1. Create a piece of content, such as a blog post.
2. In the text editor, click Insert > Insert Poll.
   
   The Insert Poll dialog box appears. With this dialog, you can create a poll and configure result viewing options.

   1. Select Poll from the Type drop-down list.
   2. Click the Create Poll tab.
       
   3. In the Question field, type the poll question.
   4. Optionally, add a description in the Description field.
   5. Add poll options in the Options area boxes ("Enter an option here.") With these fields, you can:
      1. Click Add option to create another poll option.
      2. Move an option up in the list by clicking the up arrow beside the option.
      3. Move an option down in the list by clicking the down arrow beside the option.
      4. Remove an option by clicking the remove button beside the option.

    

4. To configure result viewing options:
   1. Click Configuration. The Configuration options appear.
      If you want the poll to expire, select the expiration date on the calendar. Enter the expiration time in the Poll expiration field. 
      
   2. Select the result viewing option:
      1. Always - Displays the results to the user before a user has voted and afterward.
      2. After voting - Displays the result after a user has voted.
      3. After expires - Displays the results only after the expiration date and time.
