This application is a very simple multiple choice poll similar to doodle. It supports voting without edit rights.
In order to access the home page of the application, the users have to look for the Polls entry in the Applications panel located by default in the left panels section of the page:
The home page lists all the existing polls in a livetable where the general info, like the winning result/s, is displayed for each of them. The livetable is filterable and sortable which makes it easier to query.

Topics
Create new poll
In order to create a new idea, click Create button from the top of the page and the next step will display a list of available templates where you can find the one corresponding to polls.
Voting interface
In order to allow voting on a poll, its status has to be set to Active, the default value being In preparation.
Recent Polls Macro
This macro also lists the most recent created polls, but, unlike the livetable, no actions can be performed on this list. There are 2 ways of using a macro in a wiki page as also described in Writing Macros documentation:
Using the macro from WYSIWYG editor
Edit a wiki page in WYSIWYG mode and look in the tool bar for the icon (XWiki Macro) then search for Recent Polls and set the number of polls to be displayed.
Using the macro from wiki editor (code)
Edit the page in wiki mode and write the following code snippet:
Where the macro parameter limit is the maximum number of polls that you want to be displayed on your page. Its default value is 5.
If, instead, you don't want to set a maximum number of polls, remove the limit parameter and all of them will be displayed.
This is how it will look like before adding polls:
And after adding them:
