I can't post in the 'Polls' section.

I’ve tried three times, no luck at all. Just comes up with ‘Error, please try again’. No idea why.

Already a few topics been discussing this:

> You have to go to the poll section.
> Submit a thread as a normal topic.
> Edit that thread into a poll.

This was a change made about a week ago

Ahh great! I keep coming back to the site and trying to post my poll. Thanks for the solution!

My problem isn’t that. My problem is that when I’ve created a poll I can’t submit it. It just says, as I’ve already stated, ‘Error. Please try again later’.

I tested there and it works fine for me. Remember that you’s not creating the poll straight away. Just create a normal topic and add your info, submit it, then go back and edit the topic and the the topic type dropdown from ‘General’ to ‘Poll’ - add your poll options and it should submit.

That’s what I’m doing. Other people seem able to post, just not me.

Scratch that. Didn’t read your post properly. Just did what you said and it worked. Why’d you change the ‘poll method’ if you don’t mind me asking???

It was 343’s decision, not the mods, but it’s to help keep the forums a little clearer and keep polls in the polls forum (and lightens the workload for us a little)

Fair enough. Thanks.
