Posting a poll

[selah]

As a newbie I have tried to post a poll in the prophecy section,  but each time I have tried, it states:  The following error (s) were found.
“A poll is a choice, 1 entry is not a choice.”

What might I be doing wrong?  I did the following:

Topic title … eschatology
Topic description … Positions of interpretation

Poll Choices …
Preterism
Partial Preterism
Historicism
Futurism
Idealism

In the box below this, I placed the following:

“So as to better understand the thinking of the members of this site as to their interpretation of prophecy.”

When I clicked to post (and also to preview) it said as noted earlier:
A poll is a choice, 1 entry is not a choice.

Would it be possible for the help desk to post an example for the proper procedure?  Thank you.

I did a test poll and it worked fine using your values.

You need to put the answers into the big box. One per line.

The second box is a description and the first is the title.

You can also make a post in the last box.

Still having trouble to post a poll.  You have noted to put the answers (choices) into the “big box”.
Both boxes are the same size … approx  2″ X 4″

I have tried the choices in the first box and in the second box and both times it states:  “A poll is a choice, 1 entry is not a choice”

Also, what does this mean:  “Click or use the access key to open and again to close”

What is the access key?  Where is it located? Is this necessary to post a poll?

Hi t8,
I tried to establish a poll on the Apostle's Creed where I listed 10 answers and I was intending for people to choose all the answers that apply but it turns out that people can only choose one. So, can you tell me how to set it up to allow for choosing more than one answer? If not can you delete it altogether? Thanks!

Bump for t8.

Yeah I deleted it. It uses radio buttons which means that only one choice can be made.
You could rephrase it so members can choose the one they disagree with most, and also make one choice as “no disagreement”.

Thank you Heaven,
I did do as you suggest and you have posted there so I am surprised that you suggested it. That would have been a good idea to have added an option for 'no disagreement.'

I appreciate ya!
