Poll Maker Pro adds poll formats and participation controls for WordPress sites collecting opinions, customer feedback, or market research. Build a question, select how users respond, and place the poll in a post or page with its generated shortcode.

Choose a response format

Poll Maker supports choosing, rating, and voting polls. Pro adds dropdown, range, versus, and text polls. A range poll accepts a value from 1 to 100; a versus poll compares two people or products; and a text poll can collect short answers or paragraphs. Pro can also let participants add a custom answer to a choosing poll. Rating polls can use stars or emojis, while voting polls can use like or dislike responses or emojis.

Write and format questions in the WordPress classic editor. Add image, video, or audio content, or insert a shortcode from another plugin into the question area.

Set participation rules and poll design

Poll options can allow multiple selections, limit participation to logged-in customers or selected WordPress visitor roles, or require a password. You can configure a one-vote limit using IP address, WordPress user ID, cookie, or cookie and IP detection. Pro also includes anonymous polls and information forms with custom fields.

Choose from seven ready-made themes, four of which are available in Pro, and adjust the presentation with more than 30 style options for colors, pictures, borders, and backgrounds.

Review and use poll responses

View live results and present them with bar, pie, or column charts. Pro also supports exporting results to CSV and sending email notifications when votes are submitted. Responses can inform follow-up decisions about audience preferences, customer feedback, or market research.

Publish a poll on a WordPress page

1. Open the Polls page in the WordPress dashboard and add a poll.
2. Choose a poll type, enter the question and answers, then configure its settings and design.
3. Save the poll and copy its generated shortcode, such as [ays_poll id='your_poll_id'].
4. Insert the shortcode into a WordPress post or page and publish it.

Poll Maker Pro also includes integrations with email marketing, automation, messaging, and other services, including Mailchimp, Zapier, Slack, and Google Sheets.
