AjaxPoll brings Discussions Polls onto your wiki pages. It is named after a popular MW extension which was no longer supported on the UCP.
Features
- Embed Discussions Polls on the wiki page.
- Allow voting directly on the poll, even changing your vote, which is not supported by the Discussions Poll itself.
- Allow easy customization of the poll's styling.
Installation
Usage
- Create a poll thread in Discussions.
- Copy the thread ID, which is present in the address bar, e.g
https://dev.fandom.com/f/p/ID - Setup a div with class
d-polland supply the thread ID to thedata-idattribute.
Example:
<div class="d-poll" data-id="4400000000000005134"></div>
Result:
You can also copy and use Template:AjaxPoll which only requires you to supply the ID, and it also automatically adds a fallback link (See about fallback content below).
Fallback content
As custom JavaScript is disabled on mobile, the poll will not be loaded, therefore it is recommended to put some fallback content. The fallback content could be some text to display to the readers when the poll is not loaded, or a spinner/loader to indicate the poll is being loaded, or a link to the original poll.
Example:
<div class="d-poll" data-id="4400000000000005134">
[[File:Ajax-loader.gif]]
</div>
