I think it's not very complicated. Edit mod/poll/views/default/forms/poll/edit.php:
Replace the lines
<div>
<label><?php echo elgg_echo('poll:responses'); ?></label>
<?php echo elgg_view('poll/input/choices', array('poll' => $poll)); ?>
<?php echo elgg_view("output/longtext", array("value" => elgg_echo('poll:note_responses'), 'class' => 'elgg-subtext mts')); ?>
</div>with
<?php
echo elgg_view('input/hidden', array('name' => "number_of_choices", 'value' => 1));
echo elgg_view('input/hidden', array('name' => "choice_text_0", 'value' => elgg_echo('poll:settings:yes')));
?>Then it's no longer possible to add any poll choices when creating or eding a poll. Instead a single choice is added automatically. Choice text in this case would be "yes" (language string 'poll:settings:yes'). If you want another text for the poll choice (still always the same text though), you can add the text in the language file(s) and change the string in elgg_echo(). You could also add more fixed choices. Just add another line corresponding to the second elgg_view line above with the number of "choice_text_0" increased and adjust the value of number_of_choices() in the first elgg_view() call.
Awesome!!! I new it had to be fairly easy... Thank you.

I am new to Developing here and am wondering if there is an easy way to eliminate the functionality of the user to add voting choices. For what I am trying to do I really only want to have One Set Voting Choice (i.e. Yes). Thanks in...polls plugin
By pierro78here is an apparently good poll plugin called "polls" by kevinjardine : http://community.elgg.org/plugins/515853/0.8/polls(I am a newbie so please tell me if I post in the wrong place)
Many fixes committed to SVN, give some feedback
In case you wondered, it's not considered good manners to ask for features and fixes and then run off :-) Update your svn repository checkout and give feedback on errors, improvements and alike... Thanks,Liran Tal.Screenshots
By Liran TalSome screenshots.Tell me what do you think about the new CSS layout (my theme is RTL though don't mind that).Testers required
So whose volunteering to use the poll's plugin SVN version and provide feedback on it's functionality/bugs?[BUG] no support for group polls?
By Liran TalAlivin, When I'm in a group, clicking on Groups' Polls, then Add Poll, I'm getting the 'Add Poll' form though it seems that the owner of that page has changed from the group to the person itself. I'm wondering if this happens due to something that...
