- The voting portlet shows automatically the latest open poll or a specific
open poll
- Users can see partial results of the poll
- Results can be shown using a bar chart, a pie chart, or just by number of
votes
- Polls can have relations with other content in the site
Workflow description
The workflow associated with polls has the following states: Private, Pending
review, Open and Closed.
- Polls are created in Private state; only Owner, Manager, Editor or Site
Administrator roles can modify them
- When a poll is Private it can be sent to Pending review or directly to Open,
if the user has the proper role (Reviewer, Manager, Site Administrator)
- When a poll is Pending review it can be edited by Manager, Editor, Reviewer
or Site Administrator roles
- A poll in Pending review can be sent to Open, with "Review portal content"
permission, or to Private, with "Request review" permission
- When the poll is Open, people can only vote; nobody can modify the poll in
any way
- An Open poll can be sent to Private or Closed state by Reviewer, Manager or
Site Administrator roles
- When an Open poll is sent to Private, all votes are removed to avoid data
manipulation.
- When a poll is Closed nobody can modify it, nor can anyone vote on it; there
is no way to reopen a closed poll
