  • Open public page – shows the poll as visitors see it.
  • Copy link – copies the poll address to the clipboard.
  • Duplicate – creates a copy with all settings and options. The copy is a draft without votes.
  • Close poll / Reopen poll – stops or restarts voting. Reopening removes an end date that is already in the past.
  • Delete – removes the poll and all its votes after a confirmation.

Deleting a poll cannot be undone. Download a backup first if you may need the data. See Backup, restore and moving to a new server.
