  We just switched from self hosting (where we used widgets to put up polls in the sidebar) to WordPress hosting. I can’t seem to find a way to remove the poll that is showing up on our main blog page. How can I remove the poll? An even bigger question is – how can I remove the current poll and put up a different poll on the sidebar of our main page?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  That poll on your site is a WordPress widget, which can be managed in Appearance -> Widgets in your Dashboard. See this help page: http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/

  Here’s the complete help page for adding polls to your WordPress site, including to the sidebar: http://en.support.wordpress.com/polls/

  Thanks for the help. It turns out that my permissions had been changed from administrator to editor in the last blog hosting change. Once my permissions changed i was able to follow your directions. Thanks again for the help.
