Default Poll thread

Could someone tell me how to post a poll thread???
Apparently I'm not computer savvy enough to figure it out for myself...

When you start a thread, scroll down and the poll option is in "additional options".

I've never made a poll thread but if I were you, I'd do one in the "test section" above and see what happens.

Yeah I tried that (used preview post to see what would show up) and it didn't work.

I got it to work.
If you have trouble, you have 4 hours to edit it. If that doesn't work, I'll fix it or try to.

Ok I finally figured it out.
Posting a poll doesn't work with preview post you have to actually post it to get the poll to work.
