 * Hi, i download this plugin and its nice, but i was struggling with a bug when
   i created a POLL, i found that when the user doesn’t select any option and submits
   the FORM the code validates the Questions that are required and the titles of
   the Questions that weren’t answered should turn red instead some do and some 
   don’t, so i found the solution for this hope it helps someone with the same problem:
 * REPLACE LINE 34 of the file \pages\site\poll\section.php
 * FROM:
    `if ( empty($_SESSION['wpsqt']['current_message']) || in_array($questionId,
   $_SESSION['wpsqt']['required']) ){`
 * TO:
    `if ( empty($_SESSION['wpsqt']['current_message']) || $givenAnswer[0]!=''){`
 * REPLACE LINE 42 of the file \pages\site\poll\section.php
 * FROM:
    `if ( !empty($_SESSION['wpsqt']['current_message']) && !in_array($questionId,
   $_SESSION['wpsqt']['required']) ){`
 * TO:
    `if ( !empty($_SESSION['wpsqt']['current_message']) && $givenAnswer[0]==''){`
