Can existing polls be updated? (1.2.0.beta3 -> newest version)

Over at the Fairphone Forum we are still running Version 1.2.0.beta3. (and in the admin panel it says that’s the latest version, but that’s another issue)
I’m wondering if we can update our existing polls to fancy new polls without loosing the already submitted votes when the forum software gets updated.

Yes, you will need to run the poll:migrate_old_polls rake task.

SSH into your server and then

cd /var/discourse
./launcher enter app
rake poll:migrate_old_polls
