  Ok, so i want to create a Poll. I went to PollDaddy and registered, or whatever, and on my dashboard i created a Poll, and saved it. But it’s not showing anywhere!! What is the problem? Thank you

  Yea after you create the poll, it won’t appear on your blog, because it needs to know where to display the poll. So go to your dashboard and:

  1. Click on POLL (in the left menu)
  2. if correct, you should see your created poll there, click on HTML CODE
  3. it will expand and you see SHORT CODE, copy that code and paste it in either a post or text widget to have it appear on your blog.
