New Feature: Customizable Polls 09/16/2009
We've just released a new customizable poll feature, in partnership with PollDaddy! You can now drag and drop a poll on your page, edit and customize it right from within the Weebly editor. Here's a sample poll: The new polling element comes jam-packed with features, and you don't even have to leave Weebly to use it! Simply drag on the "Online Poll" widget from within the "More" category, click it, and then click "Edit Poll".  From there, you can create multiple polls, set up the question you're asking, add and remove answers, and set up the poll theme. After you're done, click "Save Poll" -- the overlay window closes and you're immediately back in the Weebly editor. It's as simple as that! We've been working at a break-neck pace to keep making Weebly better and better for you. We're monitoring your feedback very closely, and developing the features you request most. You can always make your voice heard at our Weebly slinkset page. Thanks again for using Weebly, and we appreciate your support! CommentsWed, 16 Sep 2009 7:42:08 pm Wow. That is great. I have used a polldaddy poll in my classroom website with my students, www.mrwylie.com, but it is great to have that feature built in. Now that it is so easy to do, I will likely include it in my education technology blog too, www.educationtechnologyblog.com. Wed, 16 Sep 2009 7:53:01 pm I'll probably insert one of these into my blog tomorrow to see how it works. I'm looking forward to seeing this new feature in action on my page. dpbeheerder Wed, 16 Sep 2009 8:03:29 pm hey guys nice update. I really like the poll i think i will put it on my weebly site. Thu, 17 Sep 2009 3:39:19 am Nice addition! I was just thinking the other day what fun stuff would be coming our Weebly way and I wake up this morning and here it is! Very cool. I can't wait to play with the new polls! Thanks!! Thu, 17 Sep 2009 4:03:16 am Fantastic new feature. Will definitely be using it in my blog to help make posts a bit more engaging. Thanks Thu, 17 Sep 2009 7:10:09 am Wow..nice layout. Thu, 17 Sep 2009 8:51:10 am This is much handier than having to copy and paste html from some other website. Looking forward to more updates. Thu, 17 Sep 2009 2:38:06 pm The best thing since the sub-pages! Awesome work guys! Keep it up! Thu, 17 Sep 2009 6:06:30 pm You know it`s kind of funny that you guys partnered with PollDaddy.com because just yesterday I was going with Micropoll.com and I looked around for a new poll maker and came across PollDaddy. So I signed up, just yesterday, and now you guys already have it on Weebly. I think it`s so awesome. Thanks Weebly! Michael Thu, 17 Sep 2009 7:17:29 pm Thank's for the new poll update . Love it . Fri, 18 Sep 2009 4:07:33 am Cool feature, you should add the polldaddy BETA ratings. To get them on my website, I had to sign up at polldaddy.com and get the HTML myself. It would save a lot of hassle if you could add them! Fri, 18 Sep 2009 7:57:09 am I think it's a great tool for bloggers. You can ask your readers what they wnat to see on your blog, which gets more readers for the blogger. Fri, 18 Sep 2009 5:17:35 pm Yay! Another great element. Ginny Sherbert Fri, 18 Sep 2009 6:01:50 pm Cool!! Thanks for setting that up! :) Fri, 18 Sep 2009 11:02:24 pm Great. I will definitely use it on my site soon. Sat, 19 Sep 2009 10:44:05 am This doesn't work for me. It is just stuck on the default question. Daniel Sat, 19 Sep 2009 12:34:17 pm It's nice, but would be good to be able to have a poll without the name of the service provider at the bottom, even if a small fee was due wishes_starrynight Sun, 20 Sep 2009 9:39:42 am Eeee! Looooove that feature. Great going!!!!! Sun, 20 Sep 2009 3:49:13 pm This feature is so cool! I`ve used like a million times before on other platforms, great to see that it`s available here! =D Sun, 20 Sep 2009 9:27:55 pm wow.. that's good..so nice and cool..improvements are so good...:D thanks for this! have a nice day :) Sam Sun, 20 Sep 2009 11:16:44 pm Dang, I already have a PollDaddy account. I made it right before you started this! So I guess I don't need this because making them is already so easy. :P Mon, 21 Sep 2009 9:27:23 am Weebly does an amazing job of partnering with companies like poll daddy and wufoo. I don't have a place to use Poll Daddy at this point, but I going to find one soon. WEEBLY, I LOVE YOU! Tue, 22 Sep 2009 7:42:59 pm Ummm I am just happy Weebly was affordable for me. All the features are great regardless. Wed, 23 Sep 2009 2:40:52 am Like it! Wed, 23 Sep 2009 3:03:08 am Weebly did a great job in enhancing the features of the website thus creating a wide audience Wed, 23 Sep 2009 3:18:31 pm Pretty cool new feature. Wed, 23 Sep 2009 3:47:05 pm I love the poll feature!, I only joined the other day and have already got my poll up and running! Thanks, looking forward to the next new feature! Wed, 23 Sep 2009 5:21:59 pm Super duper cool I use it all the time on my web-blog which you should TOTALLY CHECK OUTT!!! Wed, 23 Sep 2009 10:15:16 pm Gosh thanks, really david, this one's really handy, I'm gonna use it for my pages which don't have comment boxes or something like that. :) Love it! A big <3 Thu, 24 Sep 2009 12:36:17 am it should be a non-sponsored poll feature. Thu, 24 Sep 2009 1:43:40 am I only joined the other day and have already got my poll up and running! Thanks, looking forward to the next new feature! Thu, 24 Sep 2009 3:09:15 am hey dude nice update.I like your share. Thanks for sharing it with us. I appreciate your effort. mollie Thu, 24 Sep 2009 2:01:34 pm hey, Thu, 24 Sep 2009 6:41:11 pm Thanks you Weebly!!! I love this feature and I have wanted it for so long- keep up the good work! Katrina Harris Fri, 25 Sep 2009 7:28:58 am WHY NOT ADD SOMETHING WE CAN USE LIKE BETTER E-COMMERCE OPTIONS? A POLL IS JUST FILLER BUT E-COMMERCE VARIANTS WOULD BE OF BETTER USE. Sat, 26 Sep 2009 11:01:29 am I'd probably use it if my website worked! Sat, 26 Sep 2009 2:51:10 pm Hi mariuslandman, 67kvl3 Sat, 26 Sep 2009 7:49:44 pm The polls are no longer working for me. Is this part of the DOS Attack you mentioned? thecat Sat, 26 Sep 2009 8:07:53 pm the poll is ok... Sun, 27 Sep 2009 7:19:14 am It's so cool! I love the customizable features! You've done it again, Weebly! Keep going down Improvement Road! Mon, 28 Sep 2009 1:01:46 pm this is a very nice blog post. thanks for this useful post. Mon, 28 Sep 2009 3:30:43 pm I LOVE the new polls, but I really would like to have a chat room on my website for my fans to talk about the polls. Tue, 29 Sep 2009 4:42:41 am My site is down. It's been on and off -mostly off - for the last 5 days and this needs to improve. I'm in a critical stage in an offline biz startup, and much of my work out in the field, meeting prospectice clients and partners, is going to waste when they can't even see that my company is "for real" by visiting the site. I'm losing serious money, and I KNOW I shouldn't expect much from a free service like this. I really like the sitebuilding tool and all the cool new features you're rolling out, but my plans to eventually become a paying weebly user are quickly being deflated by this lack of reliability. Too bad, really. Tue, 29 Sep 2009 5:43:37 am I am Pro! Tue, 29 Sep 2009 5:56:18 am It would be nice to get a quicker than 3 weeks response to support questions. Tue, 29 Sep 2009 12:19:13 pm Great weebly :D Sally Tue, 29 Sep 2009 4:08:30 pm Better customer service.Site is continually down with out warnings. Jeff Cargill Tue, 29 Sep 2009 6:12:57 pm OK!!! Enough is enough!!!! I have a pro site that means I PAY FOR YOUR SERVICE!!!! Why is it that my files CAN NOT be downloaded from my site???? I have had to build another very basic site using GOOGLE just so my customers can get the information needed to keep my business running!!!! Could somebody please get back with me ASAP!!!! I need answers/HELP NOW!!! This is my second message to your "Support Team" the first was over 48 hours ago!!! What kind of support is this??? Tue, 29 Sep 2009 6:58:37 pm Jeff Cargrill, Wed, 30 Sep 2009 4:58:00 am Hi, Even I have the same problem... big messup with my clients too. Wed, 30 Sep 2009 8:44:08 am So, can you take the polling feature off the suggestion list now that we have polldaddy integration? Wed, 30 Sep 2009 5:01:47 pm I use poll daddy to help me "hear" my fan's opinions. This is a great way of not hurrying anyone to hear my new stuff. Great thing to have! Thanks Weebly for a great widget and a great site builder! Thu, 01 Oct 2009 4:25:48 am Cool. Thu, 01 Oct 2009 3:19:54 pm this works, I used it on my site, go ahead, check out my site, and click on voting. if you don't play Runescape then don't vote please. Sat, 03 Oct 2009 7:05:29 am The polls are great, the Ddos blackout wasn't. But, Weebly handled it! Go PRO and show your support and reassurance! Sat, 03 Oct 2009 2:11:57 pm Great feature! This is something that I've been hoping for as it offers more two-way communication with people that view my website and makes it "stickier". Hannah Mon, 05 Oct 2009 5:16:59 pm Hey does eny1 no how 2 publish ur site as a subdomain when its already set as a domain???? help! thxxx! and i like the polls Mon, 05 Oct 2009 5:20:58 pm I don't like this poll. It gets in to a lot of trouble. I wish weebly could use a different poll company. Mon, 05 Oct 2009 6:49:54 pm The addition of an online poll should help non-profit organizations, such as Nemacolin Castle, make future policy decisions with the input of its patrons. Thanks, Weebly. Good job! Wed, 07 Oct 2009 11:00:27 am thanks. polling is good for feedback. marco Wed, 07 Oct 2009 10:18:52 pm Weebly corrupted again... why are there no pictures on our websites? Why can't you inform your pro-members when your system breaks down - otherwise we direct customers to our site and its not there!!!! You guys are mad to not inform your paying clients... Tari Fri, 09 Oct 2009 5:43:28 am Just received a 50% coupon off services for the problems were were experiencing last week with down sites. If I am already a pro user what else is there to purchase? Fri, 09 Oct 2009 7:07:50 pm I tried alot of options in this. I liked it very much. I enjoyed alot. Sat, 10 Oct 2009 7:39:20 am How do you create a page without selecting a site? There's no website to even select anyway! I guess I'll find a different site to make my own site on! This is just freaking dumb how you can't select a site. >_> Sun, 11 Oct 2009 1:50:58 pm SOO USEFUL! I L~O~V~E it! It is just too cool! It helps me see how many people are like me or my friend, and also if the people who visit our site really care! awesome 100/10! Keep up the good work! Sun, 11 Oct 2009 7:53:29 pm This is an awesome addition! I've already used it twice on my fan site! Tue, 13 Oct 2009 2:07:53 am I would like to thank Weebly for the support she bears to most educators. Tue, 13 Oct 2009 8:50:32 pm its nice...the new-feature-customizable-polls... ty WEEBLY alex Wed, 14 Oct 2009 5:19:04 pm hi iam new to this are u suposte to make ur own website??

Fri, 16 Oct 2009 3:50:27 pm Just added it to my site and in the same theme/colours so it blends in really well. Love it! Excellent addition. Well done Weebly as usual. 67kvl3 Thu, 22 Oct 2009 5:46:49 pm The polls don't work for me! D; Thu, 22 Oct 2009 6:49:28 pm These worked great ! - Feature request -> It would be nice to be able to have multiple questions. You can see on my website how that would be helpful. Wed, 28 Oct 2009 2:31:13 am The working weebly site is very easily and information is store easily. Monica Wed, 28 Oct 2009 3:42:07 pm Not bad! (I wish I know how to use it...) Thu, 29 Oct 2009 11:45:10 pm It'a a great new feature. I will use it in my blog to help make posts a bit more engaging. Thanks Wed, 04 Nov 2009 12:57:40 pm Wow I can't believe I've only just come across Weebly. I thnk I'll be trying one of these sites out at the weekend. And I thought Wordpress was easy to build sites with :) Thu, 05 Nov 2009 5:29:09 am I love weebly! I have been absolutely attached with it. I have never joined a blogging place before, and I found this one! Please bear with me into finding some more features around weebly. I find that we'll be a great big family, soon enough. Thank you, weebly! Sat, 07 Nov 2009 2:24:23 am This is a great tool for figuring out what your visitors really want so that you can provide it for them. Thanks Wed, 11 Nov 2009 6:15:44 pm The polls don't work for me! http://www.merchantsolutionsllc.com/ Wed, 11 Nov 2009 7:32:33 pm Really great features! This is something that I've been hoping for as it offers more two-way communication with people that view my website and makes it "stickier".
