We would like to allow our users to select multiple poll answers instead of just one. Thanks!

Hey @ZapierSteph - thanks for sharing this idea. Do you have an example of a poll you wanted to create where this would have been useful? :)

I second this idea @daniel.boon @ZapierSteph!

Our Product Team has asked for feedback on a potential feature and they gave us 10 options to present to users. Limiting the poll to one answer is quite frustrating and it actually put the community on the spot.

Another good feature would be to allow more than one poll per topic. Should I create a separate idea for that suggestion? We need both :sweat_smile:

Xmas is coming and the Deezer community would be more fun with polls like this. Let us know if you can work on that :v_tone2:

Thanks for raising this. We’re currently exploring enhancements to how polls work in the community, including introducing a more flexible poll widget that could be placed beyond individual topics.

To help shape this properly we’d love to get some insights from you:

  • Are polls primarily used for quick engagement, product feedback, or operational decisions?
  • Would you prefer polls to appear only within topics, or also as standalone widgets (e.g., homepage or category pages)?
  • Should polls be visible to all members, or targeted to specific segments or product areas?
  • Do polls need to drive discussion, or are they meant to be quick, one-click interactions?
