Creating a poll with Woorise is an easy way to engage your audience and collect valuable feedback. With a simple drag-and-drop builder, real-time analytics, and powerful integrations, you can create and customize polls in minutes.
This guide will walk you through setting up a poll, customizing its design, and sharing it with your audience. Whether for market research, customer feedback, or fun voting campaigns, Woorise makes it quick and effective.
Create a poll
- In your Woorise dashboard navigate to Pages from the main menu.
- Click the Add Page button. In the Templates gallery, you can either select Start From Scratch to build a poll from the ground up or choose a pre-designed poll template that best fits your needs.
- Click on a template to open the Preview screen. Here, you can review the design and layout before making a selection. Once you’ve found the right template, click Use This Template in the top-right corner to start customizing your poll.
- You will be redirected to the Create tab, where you can customize both your poll landing page and form. This tab includes various standard options, such as setting the page title and landing page link. In this guide, we will primarily focus on styling the Form block. For more details on customizing landing page options, please refer to this guide.
- To customize the form, click on the Form block to display its settings in the right sidebar. From there, you can adjust various design elements, including input size, border radius, and colors. You can also customize the label font size and color, the font size and color for field descriptions, and the colors for the main form buttons.
- Once you’re satisfied with the customization, click on the Form tab at the top or the pencil icon to access the form builder, where you can add, edit, and configure poll questions.
Add poll questions
In the Form Editor, you can easily build your poll by dragging and dropping fields from the right sidebar. While it’s possible to create a basic poll using standard field types like Dropdown or Multiple Choice, this guide will focus on the dedicated Poll field, which offers enhanced poll-specific options.
Poll field
Here are some of the key settings available for the Poll field:
- Poll question: Enter the question you would like to ask the user. The user can then answer the question by selecting from the available choices.
- Poll type: Select the field type you’d like to use for the poll. Choose radio buttons or drop down if question only has one correct answer. Choose checkboxes if your question requires more than one correct choice.
- Use image choices: Enable this option to use images for poll choices. Once activated, a new Image Choices tab will appear in the field settings, allowing you to customize the appearance of the images.
Customize poll settings
Once you have all of your questions in place, your next step is to configure the poll settings. When you added a poll field to your form, a new section appeared under Form Settings > Polls.
- Results – Displays results to the user after a vote is submitted.
- Results Link – Shows a “View Results” link before a vote is placed.
- Percentages – Displays percentage-based poll results.
- Counts – Displays vote counts instead of percentages.
- Style – Allows customization of result colors.
- Block Repeat Voters – Uses cookies to prevent repeat voting within a set time frame.
Customize confirmations & email notifications
In the confirmation messages (thank you pages) you can give your users feedback about their submission. You can also create email notifications if you want to send an email to user with their poll results.
Merge tags
The Poll field comes with several merge tags you might find useful. These can only be used in confirmations and email notifications to output results.
{all_poll_results}
Displays all the results of the poll fields in the form.
{all_poll_results: style="green" percentages="true" counts="false"}| style | The add-on currently supports four built in styles: red, green, orange, blue. Defaults to ‘green’. (optional) |
| percentages | Display results percentages as part of results. Supported values are: true, false. Defaults to ‘true’. (optional) |
| counts | Display number of times each choice has been selected when displaying results. Supported values are: true, false. Defaults to ‘true’. (optional) |
{gpoll}
Displays the results of a specific Poll Field defined in the merge tag.
{gpoll: field=2 style="red" percentages="true" counts="true"}| field | The id of the field you would like to display. (required) |

Analyze survey results
When the Poll field is used alongside the main report, a dedicated Poll report becomes available. Once responses start coming in, you can navigate to the Poll tab to analyze the results.
Results filter
The filter section displayed in the right hand sidebar allows you to limit which entries are included in your results display.
- Include results if — allows you filter the entries that make up your results based on other factors, such as a particular form field, or other submission metadata.
- Start date and End date — limit your results display to those submission made within a certain date range.
