Pollify gives you complete control over how people vote, how long a poll stays open, and what happens after submission. These settings make your poll feel more dynamic, responsive, and secure — all without needing custom code.

Let’s explore the key voting logic and interaction controls built into Pollify’s free version.

Set Poll Status: Open, Close, or Close After #

From the block settings panel in the editor, you’ll see a Status dropdown. You can choose:

• Open – The poll is live and accepting votes.
• Close – Stops voting immediately. Visitors can no longer vote.
• Close After – Set a future time when the poll should automatically close. Great for time-limited surveys, giveaways, or one-day polls.

This simple setting lets you manage poll visibility and engagement without needing to monitor it 24/7.

Choose What Happens After the Poll Closes #

Under the same settings panel, decide what users see when voting ends:

• Show Results – Display final poll outcomes on the front end.
• Hide Poll – Remove the poll completely from view.
• Show Poll Message – Display a custom message like “Thanks for participating” or “Poll closed. Stay tuned!”

This helps manage user experience and expectations, even after a poll has ended.

Add a Confirmation Message After Voting #

When a user submits a vote, Pollify lets you decide what happens next:

• View Message – Show a thank-you or custom note immediately.
• View Result – Display the current results right after submission.

You can use these to encourage feedback, prompt further action, or simply reassure the voter that their response was counted.

Control Vote Frequency #

Pollify supports both single and multiple voting options:

• Logged-in users are tracked by their user ID.
• Visitors are tracked by IP address.

From the block’s Response Settings, choose whether each user/IP can vote once or multiple times. This helps prevent spam voting and gives you accurate insights, especially for feedback polls or contests.

Enable Checkbox Selection Style #

Use the toolbar to choose between:

• Single Checkbox – Users select only one answer.
• Multiple Checkboxes – Users can choose more than one option.

Perfect for both preference polls (pick your favorite) and feedback surveys (select all that apply).

Why Pollify Handles Voting Logic Better Than Crowdsignal #

Crowdsignal’s voting rules rely heavily on its external interface, and advanced configurations often require a Pro upgrade. Pollify, on the other hand, offers all core voting controls natively — right inside the block editor. That means fewer surprises, cleaner workflows, and more flexibility for WordPress users.
