Polls can be easily created using reactions in the community.

How to Create a Poll Using Reactions:

1. Write a Post: Create a new post in the community, where you clearly state the question or the topic for the poll.

2. Define Options: List the different choices under your post. You can assign each option a relevant emoji to make the polling process clear and easy to follow.

3. Ask Participants to Vote: Add an instruction telling community members to vote by reacting with the emoji that corresponds to their choice. In the example, 🌊 stands for the option “Tuesdays 3-4 PM” and 🌋 for “Wednesdays 3-4 PM.”

4. Count Reactions as Votes: Once members have reacted with their chosen emoji, you can count the reactions to determine the poll results.

Advantages of This Method:

Quick and Simple: No additional features are needed. Everything can be managed through standard reactions.

Visually Engaging: Using emojis makes the poll more fun and user-friendly.

Real-Time Results: You can count the reactions at any time to see the current poll results immediately.

This method offers a flexible and easy way to quickly gather opinions within your community, without needing any extra tools. It works particularly well for informal polls and simple decision-making.
