• Can I install or remove PlonePopoll easily ?

  Yes, using the CMF QuickInstaller Tool.

• I see the result but i can't vote, why ?

  The poll is probably disabled.

• I have voted twice, does it matter ?

  No, only your last answer that is kept.

• After having installed PlonePopoll 2.1, my Plone site raises an exception, what can I do ?

  If you upgrade PlonePopoll from version 2.0x, you have to use the migration script. Restart the server. Create in your plone site folder (from zmi) an external method * Module : PlonePopoll.doMigration * Method : doMigration * Save and test.
