Poll

Blocks ::: block_poll
Maintained by Adam Olley
Allows you to create custom polls for use in a Moodle course. A course can have many polls created within it; you can then choose which one to display through the block configuration tabs.

Poll 3.1.0.2

Moodle 3.1, 3.2, 3.3
Released: Thursday, 18 May 2017, 2:46 PM

New feature

  • Ability to "lock" anonymous polls, making them semi-anonymous. Once a configurable threshold of responses have been received, the response list will show who responded, but not what their individual responses were (thanks @rrusso).

Improvement

  • Performance: Load all users in one query when displaying response list.
  • Performance: Load count of responses for each option in one query, instead of a query per option.
  • Coding style violations cleaned up.
  • Refactor code layout to be more maintainable.
