This behaviour might have changed; I have just posted multple polls in a single post. I got this weird error message:

This also occurs here in meta.

That suggestion is quite meaningless to the average user, and has likely become a bit scrambled due to the HTML not being recognised.

May I suggest this text instead?

> An error occurred: There are multiple polls without discreet names. Use the name attribute to uniquely identify your polls like this: [poll name=poll1 type=regular]

I’ve slipped this into its own #Contribute > UX topic so we don’t lose track of it. 👍 🙂

Pretty needed, I don’t even know how to add multiple polls ATM

What about simply adding the name=ID value by default when generating the poll? 🤔
