This plug-in lets people carry out questionnaire surveys for various purposes and features;
1. Single selection and multiple selections 2. Allowing everyone or specific user(s) to post an answer 3. Limiting visibility of the answers and the result 4. Allowing a questioner to notify specific people of posting the question 5. No notification of the submission of the answers of somebody else 6. New: An Answer Table tab under the question shows an inline list of responses, and total number of responses for each choice. 7. New: Click the Export CSV button to export response data as a comma separated variable file for spreadsheet analysis.
The feature 5 is a great improvement from Forum5621: Questionnaire Widget Plugin. In Forum5621: Questionnaire Widget Plugin, since each answer was a comment, the 1st answerer would get lots of notifications of the following answers because of the auto-watching capability. This plug-in would not send such notifications and not bother you any more.
Note: This plug-in is styled as a multi-choice vote with ability to comment. You may also be interested in Forum6918.
