polldaddy |
|
The PollDaddy extension allows to insert polldaddy.com polls on a page. It was originally based off of Sylvain Machefert's GoogleVideo and YouTube video extensions, but has been re-written to use parameters within the tag to make it more elegant and secure.
Usage[edit]
Put the following code into the page where you want to display a poll, replacing "12345" with the correct poll ID number:
<polldaddy pollid="12345"/>
Installation[edit]
- Copy the source code and place the file(s) in a directory called
PollDaddyin yourextensions/folder. - Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:
require_once "$IP/extensions/PollDaddy/PollDaddy.php";
Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
