proposed FAQ addition

Post by Raxmei »

This one tends to crop up from time to time. It's annoying when it happens and wastes moderator time.

Why didn't the last option to my poll show up?
You probably hit the 'Submit' button after typing the last option. You have to hit the 'Add option' button for every option, including the last one. Only then can you submit the poll.

One that nobody ever asks, but I want to know :

What is the maximum number of poll options?
This is set by the board administrator. What is it?

I think it's between eight and twelve. Way back when I did a thread in OSF that was going to be a poll for people to vote for their favourite Angel from Eva, but when I previewed it said I had too many poll options, so I had to drop the poll.

Bump.
Somebody just made this mistake with two polls in OSF.
What do people who matter think?
