I just replied in zeeb's post - can we post a quickpoll when an interesting discussion is occurring on any given board? And then provide a link? It would require a little more attention on the part of the quickpoll admin, unfortunately, unless it can somehow be selected to post one when a new post is put up. I am trying to think about how to get more exposure to some of the posts, and a tie in from the front page is a great way to do it.
So, basically, when we fill out a post form, we have an option to select "make this a quickpoll" (pending approval), and it takes us to the quickpoll submission form and also provides a link back to the main post when the poll goes up. Thoughts?
