User generated polls - new feature on all boards.
Most of you will be familiar with AIBU polls in which you can vote YABU or YANBU on AIBU threads. In response to user requests, we're now giving you the power to create custom polls to threads beyond AIBU.
Whether you're discussing parenting, relationships, or the latest parking dilemma, polls are a great way to gather quick feedback and opinions from fellow Mumsnetters. You will be able to write a question and add up to six answer options.
To create a poll outside of AIBU:
- Start a new thread in your selected topic
- Select the button ‘Add poll’
- Write your question
- Add between 2 and 6 answer options
- Select your poll duration (3 hours, 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days)
- Post it live
While we want everyone to enjoy and get the most out of the polls feature, we do have a few rules to keep things civilised. In line with our existing Talk guidelines:
- No deliberately inflammatory questions or options
- No hate speech
- No personal attacks
- No market research
- No posting the same poll twice
We’ll review things as we go along and may add additional guidance if necessary. In the meantime, post any questions or comments below and we’ll do our best to address them
