Benefits of an account

You can create a user account on YouPoll. Click Register, complete the form and click "CREATE ACCOUNT" to create an account. The registration form requires a username and password. Usernames can be 3-30 characters and contain letters, numbers, "-" and "_". Passwords must be at least 6 characters. An email address is optional and only used to send a temporary password if you ever get locked out of your account. An account gives you access to the following:

User page

A user page keeps track of the polls created by your account. Sign in, click the profile drop-down and click the Polls link to visit your user page. The user page shows each poll in a separate row of the table. The question, date created, poll type and voting limits are displayed for each poll. There are also links to vote on and view the results of each poll.

Admin options

A user page also provides admin options for your polls. Click the "Edit" toggle button on your user page to view the following admin options:

• CAPTCHA
• Turn this option on to add Google reCAPTCHA to the poll. Participants must complete a test to prove they are human before voting. This helps prevent participants from spamming votes to manipulate the poll.

• Hide Results
• Turn this option on to hide the results of the poll from participants. The poll creator will still be able to view the results.

• Pause Poll
• Turn this option on to prevent participants from voting on the poll. The poll creator will still be able to vote.

• Delete Poll
• Click this button to delete the poll. This will also delete the poll from any lists it is in. This action cannot be undone.
