## Description

HT Live Polls & Voting provides an intuitive, real-time opinion poll and voting 
engine designed for workplace polls, community feedback, and public surveys.

#### Key Features

 * **Poll UI Design:** Modern option box cards with embedded radio selectors, real-
   time percentages, horizontal progress bars, and total voter count footers.
 * **Unique Email Voting:** Enforces unique votes per poll based on Email Address(
   and user ID) to guarantee authentic results.
 * **Poll Expiration Datetime:** Set expiration date and time for polls to automatically
   close voting when expired.
 * **Bulk Multi-Delete Functionality:** Select multiple polls, questions, or vote
   submissions and delete them simultaneously with AJAX confirmation modals.
 * **Comprehensive Shortcodes:** Easily embed polls (`[live_poll id="123"]`), standalone
   questions (`[live_question id="123"]`), user login/registration forms, and front-
   end support ticket forms.
 * **Submissions & Analytics:** View real-time response distribution graphs and 
   voter submission logs in the WordPress admin dashboard.
 * **Theme Overrides:** Seamlessly override plugin templates by placing files inside`
   your-theme/ht-live-polls-and-voting/`.
 * **WordPress.org Compliant:** Strict security practices, sanitization, escaping,
   and nonces.

### Shortcodes

 * `[live_poll id="123"]` – Embeds an opinion poll with option selection, real-time
   percentage indicators, progress bars, and total voter count.
 * `[live_question id="123"]` – Embeds a standalone question/poll card.
 * `[live_polls_login]` – Renders user login form with client-side validation and
   AJAX authentication.
 * `[live_polls_register]` – Renders user registration form and triggers welcome
   emails.
 * `[live_polls_forgot_password]` – Renders password reset request form.
 * `[live_polls_support]` – Renders a front-end contact and support ticket submission
   form.

### Template Overrides

To customize poll templates in your active theme:
 1. Create a folder named `ht-
live-polls-and-voting` in your active theme’s directory (e.g. `wp-content/themes/
your-theme/ht-live-polls-and-voting/`). 2. Copy `wp-content/plugins/ht-live-polls-
and-voting/templates/quiz/quiz-card.php` or `question-card.php` into `wp-content/
themes/your-theme/ht-live-polls-and-voting/`. 3. Modify the template as needed!

## FAQ

### How is unique voting handled?

Unique votes are checked based on Email Address to prevent voters from submitting
multiple responses on the same poll.

### Can I view graphical analytics of poll submissions?

Yes! Log into WordPress Admin and go to **Polls > Submissions & Analytics** to view
real-time horizontal distribution bar graphs.
