Hi!

The polls only run in the sidebar. To embed them in an article would mean to get familar with the "Smarty markup plugin" as well als Smarty formatting, and use the {serendipity_showPlugin} smarty function call to embed the contents of a sidebar item. Searching this forum for "serendipity showplugin" should yield some results.

Else: How about writing in an article: "Have a look at the left/right sidebar"?

HTH,
Garvin

Hi!

Which threads here in the forum did you look up already? You must search for "showplugin", there are some examples for this.
