Maybe an odd request, but I’m interested in creating an “opt in” poll that just has one option, but the poll is throwing an error. Is there any way, even a workaround, that can work?
AI-generated summary
A user tobiaseigen requested a single-option poll but encountered an error. cpradio suggested adding a fake second option, while pfaffman proposed making both options “yes”. Mittineague recommended using the checklist plugin or hiding a “no” option with CSS.
tobiaseigen ultimately decided not to use a poll, but codinghorror and sam agreed that allowing single-option polls could be useful. Remah suggested a workaround using a regular poll with two options.
markvanlan noted that allowing single-option polls would require adding a “clear vote” button to undo votes. However, codinghorror decided to ignore this issue for now. markvanlan later merged a pull request that allows for single-option polls.
Put in a fake second option, delete it once it is in the composer and see what happens?
make both options “yes”. ![]()
I was thinking that instead of using a poll as a checkbox maybe the checklist plugin could do what you need
But AFAICT, it won’t.
Maybe make a “no” option and then use CSS to display: none it?
Then there will likely be a “100%” showing, so it feels like this is getting into new plugin territory to me.
How about “Like this post if you’re going to be there
!”
But you can’t un-like to say you won’t, which I think is probably also a problem with a poll.
Another solution is a wiki, maybe.
@tobiaseigen if you want two options, instead of one, then a poll already works.
Thanks, all! Really appreciate all the suggestions.
In the end, I decided to just bag the poll in this case. Interestingly, I got a handful of likes already to the topic without even asking for it, so people seem enthusiastic and are showing it. ![]()
I do think that down the road it might be of value to allow one option to choose from, but it’s not a high priority for me. Perhaps someone else wants to make it possible at some stage. The 100% showing issue seems to be the only potential snag, beyond the UX tweaks that would be needed.
투표 옵션은 하나만 가능해야 하나요 @sam @eviltrout? 괜찮을 것 같기도 한데?
네, 이 특정 사용 사례에서는 맞는 말인 것 같아요.
좋아요 @eviltrout. 이 제한은 완화하기가 꽤 쉬울 것 같네요. 혹시 이 이슈를 담당해 주실 수 있을까요?
원래 문제는 참석자 수를 알고 싶은 다른 RSVP와 마찬가지로 해결할 수 있습니다. 보통 누가 함께 가고 싶었는지도 알아두는 것이 유용합니다.
- 네, 참여합니다! 금요일에 만나요!

- 아쉽게도 참석할 수 없습니다!

수정: 이제 이해했습니다. 집계 결과를 보여주는 것이 유용하겠네요.
다시 수정: 단일 투표 옵션은 결과값이 하나뿐이므로 자동화가 더 쉬울 것 같습니다.
투표에서 옵션을 1개만 허용하는 것은 간단합니다. 다만, 투표 취소 버튼을 추가해야 합니다.
일반적으로 다른 투표에서는 옵션이 답변의 스펙트럼을 포괄하므로 문제가 되지 않습니다. 하지만 옵션이 하나만 있는 경우, 현재로서는 투표를 취소할 수 없습니다.
내 투표 취소 버튼을 모든 투표에 표시해야 할까요?
아니요, 지금은 그냥 무시하세요. 단일 선택 투표로 설정하면 투표 취소를 할 수 없습니다. 그냥 그런 겁니다.
방금 단일 옵션 투표가 가능하도록 하는 PR을 병합했습니다 ![]()
- 잘 보입니다
