 * Presales questions. Since I cannot determine much about your polling software
   from your site, can you please me how much of the following this plugin would
   accomplish?
 * I need simple polling which:
 * • Allows me to intermingle the polling with non-polling material. For example,
   if I have an online magazine, an authenticated reader might read an article and
   then be willing to answer two questions about the article. Presumably, these 
   answers should be recorded at once in case the reader does not continue. However,
   after answering the first two questions, the reader might then read another article
   and answer another set of questions based on the second article. Is this sequence
   of article and questions, article and questions practical with your software,
   and would there be a single survey or, in my case, maybe 80 separate surveys,
   sometimes with more than one survey on the same page?
 * • I can put anywhere on my site, not just in posts.
 * • Can apply to specific choices that I present as admin and where the voting 
   applies only to these choices, as opposed to an entire post or article.
 * • Allows me to hide the vote totals so as not to prejudice the voting.
 * • Comes with a template or table that displays vote totals from voting throughout
   my site. That is, totals from all the questions should be rolled up into a scrollable
   page that I can place anywhere on my site.
 * • Does all the processing on my site instead of requiring the user to link to
   your site. Since the polls are in multiple locations on my site, I would not 
   want the user experience to become sluggish as the result of constant back and
   forth linking from my site to yours.
 * • Attempts to prevent a user from voting multiple times on the same question (
   i.e., cheating) by monitoring the IP address or username and password required
   for my site.
 * • Implements up the above via settings and shortcode instead of making me write
   code or scripts that are beyond my technical abilities.
 * • Allows the user to enter a short string as “other” if the enumerated choices
   that are given are incomplete or not of interest.
 * If I am on the right track, please state system requirements (i.e., modules that
   must be added to the core WP software) and refer me to step-by-step directions
   for installation.

 * Hello
 * Thank you for your interest in our plugin.
    I have included below the answers
   to your questions
 * #1. A poll can be placed anywhere on your website (page, post). All you need 
   to do is to enter the poll code generated.
 * From what you are saying, I think having a poll per article is the best way to
   go.
    Please note that free version only allows one question per poll.
 * #2. There are “General Options” (for all polls) and also Individual Options (
   per poll).
    So yes, you can define settings per poll.
 * #3. There are several options for displaying results (Before Vote, After Vote,
   After Poll End Date, Never, Custom Date)
 * #4. Several templates are available and can be easily edited to match your site
   look.
    With free version you can’t display the results on a different page (or
   post) then the one with the poll. Pro version comes with a shortcode that allows
   to display results on any page or post.
 * #5. Plugin does not link anywhere to our website. Everything takes place on your
   website.
    Please note that if you are allowing people to vote with their facebook
   or g+ account, a request will be made to those services.
 * #6. Yes, you can limit voting using ip address, cookies, user id.
 * #7. Once a poll is created, a shortcode is generated. All you need to do is to
   place that shortcode where you want the poll to show up.
 * #8. Other answers are supported. And you can also choose to add these other answers
   as poll answers.
 * The only system requirement to run YOP Poll is php 5.3 or any version above that.
   
   YOP Poll can be installed from your wordpress admin by going to Plugins and choosing
   Add New. Search for YOP Poll and then click Install.
 * Let us know if you have further questions.
 * Best
    YOP Team
