Dear community, is there a way I can insert a poll in community posts? Our users can simply click on the option they wanna vote for and also be able to see the result after. 

Thanks!

Hey Phoebe,

Natively you wouldn't be able to include a Poll in community posts. A developer may be able to work their magic to customize the Guide theme to allow this but out of the box Gather posts cannot render custom code. 
 
It may be more beneficial to include a poll in a Guide article instead since you have access to the source code editor for embedding this functionality. It may also be worth looking into the custom pages functionality here: Announcing custom pages in help center
 
Let me know if you have any other questions!

There's also a feature request for this functionality that you might want to up vote, @phoebe12
