New feature: Forum polls!

[Holo]

You can now add a poll when you start a thread.
We will run regular polls to increase engagement with our readers. These can be found in the "Official polls" subform in the General forum.
Our first poll is here: https://mangadex.org/thread/42823 Do check it out!

Good idea, but the front-end implementation needs some work.

Yeah I agree, I could still see the radio buttons even after voting.

Edit:
See and interact with *
If they're not gonna be hidden, might as well have them disabled (grayed out) after voting.

 

[Holo]

Good point. They're now disabled after voting.

Cool! ?

Might I suggest some additional features:
- Bar graph graphics so that users can visually see the distribution of the votes
- Ability to change your vote (perhaps with a deadline, after which votes can no longer be changed) in case you accidentally select the wrong option or you change your mind right after you vote
- Ability to select more than one option
- Add additional unnecessarily complicated algorithms for calculating the voting results because why use something as simple as tallying up the votes when you could instead use the Schulze method for computing the Condorcet winner ?
- A thread to suggest future poll ideas (similar to what MU currently has)

+1 on this. Need some horizontal lines.

@Holo Looking better, yay! Though that blue/white style might want to be made to fit a bit better with dark theme.
