How to display more than one poll in sidebar? by eleight
You can use this little dirty hack ;) It will output $limit active polls. You can easily extend this function to suit your needs!

--- Code: ---function get_active_polls($limit) {
        global $wpdb;
        $rez = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT pollq_id FROM $wpdb->pollsq WHERE pollq_active = 1 ORDER BY pollq_id DESC LIMIT ".$limit);
        foreach($rez as $poll) {
                get_poll($poll->pollq_id);
        }
}

--- End code ---
and then in sidebar replace
--- Code: ---get_poll();
--- End code ---
with
--- Code: ---get_active_polls();
--- End code ---

Note: If you are using widgets, there is already support for multiple polls. Under "WP-Admin -> Presentation -> Widgets -> Polls". Configure Poll Widget by clicking on the square icon besides the Widget Title, under "Current Active Poll", choose "Display Multiple Polls".

It's not letting me display polls outside of wordpress... Help?
I have all the right stuff in the head section, and the php get poll code where I want it, but all I get is errors.

Ttech:
