Feature
Polls and surveys
Native polls with scheduling, vote integrity, and live results — plus one-question-at-a-time surveys built on the same form engine.

Part of Core Forms, with every premium WordPress form feature in one plugin, one license and unlimited sites.
Polls are their own object type with their own editor: Question, Settings, Schedule, Embed, and Results tabs, a Gutenberg block (core-forms/poll), a [cf_poll] shortcode, and a REST API. Votes are deduplicated against a stored voter hash rather than a bare IP, so the count survives shared networks and cleared cookies better than a cookie-only check.
Surveys run on the form engine instead. Turn on fullscreen display mode for a Typeform-style, one-question-at-a-time flow, start from the NPS or customer-survey template, and let long questionnaires save and resume from a link. Answers land in the same submissions inbox and export to CSV.
What you get
How it works in Core Forms
Vote integrity
Each vote stores a hash of poll, IP, user agent, cookie, and user. Honeypot on by default, plus a 12-per-minute rate limit.
Change-vote window
Give voters a set number of minutes to revise their answer — the form re-renders pre-checked.
Live results
Opt-in 15-second polling that pauses on a hidden tab, in bar, column, or percentage styles.
Surveys, one question at a time
Fullscreen mode with a progress indicator, light or dark theme, and save-and-resume for long questionnaires.
Results you can act on
Per-poll analytics with a per-day series, CSV export of every vote, and survey answers in the standard submissions inbox.
