collective.polls 1.1

Features

• Polls can be opened for anonymous users to vote

• If a open poll, allowed for anonymous is in a private folder nobody can vote. The parent folder of this poll should be published before opening the poll for this field to take effect

• Voting can take place in the object or in a voting portlet

• The voting portlet shows automatically the latest open poll or a specific open poll and closed polls

• Users can see partial results of the poll

• Results can be shown using a bar chart, a pie chart, or just by number of votes

• Polls can have relations with other content in the site

Workflow description

The workflow associated with polls has the following states: Private, Pending review, Open and Closed.

• Polls are created in Private state; only Owner, Manager, Editor or Site Administrator roles can modify them

• When a poll is Private it can be sent to Pending review or directly to Open, if the user has the proper role (Reviewer, Manager, Site Administrator)

• When a poll is Pending review it can be edited by Manager, Editor, Reviewer or Site Administrator roles

• A poll in Pending review can be sent to Open, with “Review portal content” permission, or to Private, with “Request review” permission

• When the poll is Open, people can only vote; nobody can modify the poll in any way

• An Open poll can be sent to Private or Closed state by Reviewer, Manager or Site Administrator roles

• When an Open poll is sent to Private, all votes are removed to avoid data manipulation.

• When a poll is Closed nobody can modify it, nor can anyone vote on it; there is no way to reopen a closed poll
