   Anyone know how to get the WP-Polls archive to work? I have it setup to show open and closed polls and nothing shows. It actually shows a 404 error when trying to open the page.

   I tried to re-set the templates and had no luck. Thoughts?

   I ma guessing you didn't make a polls archive page.

   Polls Archive

   1. Go to 'WP-Admin -> Write -> Write Page'
   2. Type any title you like in the post's title area
   3. Type '[page_polls]' in the post's content area (without the quotes)
   4. Type 'pollsarchive' in the post's slug area (without the quotes)
   5. Click 'Publish'
   6. If you ARE NOT using nice permalinks, you need to go to 'WP-Admin -> Polls -> Poll Option' and under 'Poll Archive -> Polls Archive URL', you need to fill in the URL to the Polls Archive Page you created above.

   Thanks. I guess I assumed the page was built into the plugin. All is good now.

   If you can't see it means u are not using Nice Permalink and you can ignore it.

   Once you created the page note the URL and then type the url there 'WP-Admin -> Polls -> Poll Option' and under 'Poll Archive -> Polls Archive URL'
