Can a poll be pinned as a banner?

[communitygal]

I added this poll to my instance, but the question doesn’t appear. How can I create a poll that looks more intuitive to users?
People had voted but it displayed zero voters.

Thanks,

You must write the question outside the poll:

What is your favorite animal?

• cat
• dog
• capybara

Are you on the very latest version of Discourse?
There were bugs on polls that have already been fixed some time ago.

oh ok maybe the issue was just when it was pinned the banner

Yep, for reference:

Poll not working on a banner topic

Hi Team Discourse ! I’m here to report on a little bug, when I create a topic with a poll and pin it to banner topic two things are broken : it is impossible to vote If we go inside the topic and vote, the result is not visible on the banner. I run in a fairly recent version (updated 2 or 3 days ago), but it doesn’t seem that it was fixed since then. There is nothing urgent, I noticed it on a little forum under construction, and I doubt these kinds of ideas are often used.

Polls don’t support being pinned in a banner at the moment.
